Correlation between end-tidal carbon dioxide and the degree of compression of heart cavities measured by transthoracic echocardiography during cardiopulmonary resuscitation for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

TL;DR: CImax is a candidate parameter for the guidance of hemodynamic-directed CPR and positively correlated with all parameters under consideration, while the strongest correlation was found between CImax and EtCO2.

Outcome of patients treated with extracorporeal life support in cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction: 1-year result from the ECLS-Shock study.

TL;DR: This pilot study showed that randomized studies with ECLS in CS patients are feasible and safe and there is an urgent call for larger multi-centric randomized trials assessing the endpoint of all-cause mortality but also considering the effects on neurological outcome measures.

Predictors of external cooling failure after cardiac arrest

TL;DR: External cooling failure occurred in nearly one-third of patients with CA and was associated with easily identified risk factors, which emphasizes the interest in early cooling and alternative techniques in these patients.

Neopuff T‐piece mask resuscitator: is mask leak related to watching the pressure dial?

TL;DR: The aim of the study is to compare mask leak and delivered ventilation during Neopuff mask ventilation in two modes: (i) with NP pressure dial hidden and resuscitator watching chest wall (CW) rise with, and (ii) with CW movement hidden and NP pressuredial hidden.

Biphasic Anaphylaxis: A Review of the Incidence, Characteristics and Predictors

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the available literature on the topic of biphasic anaphylaxis is presented, showing that patients with an initial presentation requiring more than one dose of epinephrine, those who have life-threatening initial presenting features, and those who otherwise take longer to stabilize, are in this higher risk group, and would be more likely to benefit from prolonged in hospital observa- tion.

Difficult Airway Society guidelines for management of the unanticipated difficult intubation

TL;DR: The Difficult Airway Society (DAS) developed guidelines for management of the unanticipated difficult tracheal intubation in the non-obstetric adult patient without upper airway obstruction as discussed by the authors.

Task Force on Sudden Cardiac Death of the European Society of Cardiology

TL;DR: The members of the Task Force on Sudden Death dedicate this paper to the memory of their former friend and colleague, Professor Ronald W. F. Campbell, who spent his life working in the field of sudden cardiac death, and the extent of the expanding knowledge in this field is described.
