Simons,Stephen Thomas,Joseph P. Wood,Wyatt W. Decker +25 more
TL;DR: There is no universal agreement on the definition of anaphylaxis or the criteria for diagnosis, so representatives from 16 different organizations or government bodies, including representatives from North America, Europe, and Australia, to continue working toward a universally accepted definition.

TL;DR: A number of key areas supported by evidence-based medicine that are important for a comprehensive stroke center and its ability to deliver the wide variety of specialized care needed by patients with serious cerebrovascular disease are likely to improve outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Can cardiac sonography and capnography be used independently and in combination to predict resuscitation outcomes
Philip Salen,Robert E. O'Connor,Paul Sierzenski,Brent Passarello,Diana Pancu,Scott W. Melanson,Steven Arcona,James F. Reed,Michael Heller +8 more
TL;DR: Both the sonographic detection of cardiac activity and ETCO(2) levels higher than 16 torr were significantly associated with survival from ED resuscitation; however, logistic regression analysis demonstrated that prediction of survival using capnography was not enhanced by the addition of cardiac sonography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thrombolytic therapy for acute ischemic stroke: why the majority of patients remain ineligible for treatment.
TL;DR: The majority of acute ischemic stroke patients do not meet accepted criteria for thrombolytic therapy and most are ineligible because of delays in obtaining treatment, suggesting strategies should be devised to reduce the time to treatment.
