Journal ArticleDOI

Checking the carotid pulse check: diagnostic accuracy of first responders in patients with and without a pulse

TL;DR: It is concluded that recognition of pulselessness by rescuers with basic CPR training is time-consuming and inaccurate; both intensive retraining of professional rescuers and reconsideration of guidelines about carotid pulse assessment are warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Trial of 150-J Biphasic Shocks Compared With 200- to 360-J Monophasic Shocks in the Resuscitation of Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Victims

TL;DR: Although survival rates to hospital admission and discharge did not differ, discharged patients who had been resuscitated with biphasic shocks were more likely to have good cerebral performance, resulting in more patients who achieved a return of spontaneous circulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimal Response to Cardiac Arrest study: defibrillation waveform effects.

TL;DR: ICBTE was superior to MTE and MDS in defibrillation efficacy and speed and to Mte in ROSC, and there were no differences among the waveforms in refibrillation or survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

The significance of ionic bonding in sulfur dioxide: bond orders from X-ray diffraction data.

TL;DR: A novel refinement technique for X‐ray diffraction data has been employed to derive S-O bond orders in sulfur dioxide experimentally and results show that ionic S- O bonding dominates over hypervalency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Active compression-decompression resuscitation: a prospective, randomized study in a two-tiered EMS system with physicians in the field

TL;DR: In the two-tiered EMS system with physician-staffed ambulances, ACD-CPR neither improved nor impaired survival rates and neurological prognosis in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
