Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of real-time feedback during cardiopulmonary resuscitation outside hospital: prospective, cluster-randomised trial
David Hostler,Siobhan Everson-Stewart,Thomas D. Rea,Ian G. Stiell,Clifton W. Callaway,Peter J. Kudenchuk,Gena K. Sears,Scott S. Emerson,Graham Nichol +8 more
TL;DR: Real-time visual and audible feedback during CPR altered performance to more closely conform with guidelines, however, these changes in CPR performance were not associated with improvements in return of spontaneous circulation or other clinical outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toxic and therapeutic effects of amiodarone in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias
H. Leon Greene,Ellen L. Graham,Jeffrey A. Werner,Gena K. Sears,Brian W. Gross,Jay P. Gorham,Peter J. Kudenchuk,Gene B. Trobaugh +7 more
TL;DR: Amiodarone appears to be useful in the management of refractory arrhythmias and is difficult to administer Because virtually all patients develop side effects when given a maintenance daily dose of 600 mg, lower maintenance doses should be used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early coronary angiography and induced hypothermia are associated with survival and functional recovery after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest
Clifton W. Callaway,Robert H. Schmicker,Siobhan P. Brown,J. Michael Albrich,Douglas L. Andrusiek,Tom P. Aufderheide,Jim Christenson,Mohamud Daya,David Falconer,Ruchika D Husa,Ahamed H. Idris,Joseph P. Ornato,Valeria E. Rac,Thomas D. Rea,Jon C. Rittenberger,Gena K. Sears,Ian G. Stiell +16 more
TL;DR: Early coronary intervention and induced hypothermia are associated with favorable outcome and are more frequent in hospitals that treat higher numbers of OHCA subjects per year.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endotracheal intubation versus supraglottic airway insertion in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest
Henry E. Wang,Daniel W. Szydlo,John A Stouffer,Steve Lin,Jestin N. Carlson,Christian Vaillancourt,Gena K. Sears,Richard Verbeek,Raymond L. Fowler,Ahamed H. Idris,Karl Koenig,Jim Christenson,Anushirvan Minokadeh,Joseph Brandt,Thomas D. Rea +14 more
TL;DR: In this secondary analysis of data from the multicenter ROC PRIMED trial, ETI was associated with improved outcomes over SGA insertion after OHCA, and was not associated with secondary airway or pulmonary complications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation in Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Resuscitation and Transport Practices in the Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium: ROC Epistry–Cardiac Arrest
Dana Zive,Kent M. Koprowicz,Terri A. Schmidt,Ian G. Stiell,Gena K. Sears,Lois Van Ottingham,Ahamed H. Idris,Shannon W. Stephens,Mohamud Daya +8 more
TL;DR: Initiation of resuscitation and transport of OOHCA and the reporting of ROSC prior to transport markedly varies among ROC sites, which may help clarify reported differences in survival rates among sites and provide a target for identifying EMS practices most likely to enhance survival from OohCA.
