Magnesium does not improve ROSC, survival, or neurologic outcomes, no matter the presenting rhythm (Level 3: no benefit). For patients with OHCA, use of steroids during CPR is of uncertain benefit.

Targeted temperature management (TTM) for patients following cardiac arrest resuscitation has gone through several dosing iterations in the past two decades. Finally, the guidelines support active temperature management’s (though not necessarily hypothermia) role in improving post-arrest outcomes. degrees Celsius.

The team start CPR, and this is emergently converted to extra-corporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation via the open sternotomy wound. The JET is treated by deepening sedation (to minimise exogenous and endogenous catecholamines), optimizing electrolytes and active mild hypothermia. What is the best option for repair?

Background: Previous observational studies published in 2015 (Geri 2015)(Vyas 2015) indicated that early cardiac catheterization in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) might improve mortality and result in more favorable neurological outcomes.

In fact, 4000 paramedics in total were not only trained in the study protocol but also given a rigorous evaluation of their ability to perform CPR. On the topic of EMS and similar to the pilot study, there was an incredibly high amount of bystander CPR performed. Thus limiting the external validity of this paper’s findings.
