Introduction: Training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and correct use of the automated external defibrillator (AED) allows the intervention of lay citizens in situations of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (EHPA). In Paraguay, Law No. 5,578/2016 establishes the mandatory use of the AED in mass attendance centers (CCM). Methodology: quasi-experimental before/after study in CCM representatives (Universities, shopping malls, Social/Sports Clubs, Gyms, Automotive Dealership, Residential Complexes and Supermarkets). Data were obtained from universities of the Ministry of Education and Sciences, municipal sources, and the Chamber of Commerce. Between 1-3 representatives/MCCs were trained through theoretical-practical workshops on basic CPR and correct use of the AED in HCWP with a validated questionnaire (Cronbach's alpha: 0.75). Data were compared with χ² and Mann-Whitney t-test or U test (p-significant value =<0.05). Results: Of 194 participants, the mean age was 29±5; 60.31% (117) were male, 38.65% (70) were shopping mall representatives, 60.82% (118) had a university education, and 45.36% (88) worked in customer service. 59.228% (115) had not previously received CPR training and 86.08% (167) had no AED training. A statistically significant difference was observed between the before and after score, with a difference of 4.791(1.012 points (p=0.0001). Discussion: The intensive training program is effective in raising the level of knowledge and practice in basic CPR and AED use among lay CCM representatives.
RESUMO
Abstract Introduction: Every year, five million people around the world experience an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and less than 40 % receive any assistance before the arrival of the Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Ambulance operators (AO) take care of people experiencing an OHCA, stabilize and then transfer them. In Medellín, Colombia, there is a public AO and several private providers, but the information about an OHCA and the operational characteristics during the response to the event are limited. Objective: To estimate the incidence of OHCA and to explore the factors associated with survival after the event in Medellín city. Methods: Retrospective, population-based cohort study. All the medical records of patients experiencing an OHCA who were assessed and treated by ambulance operators, (AO) of the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and private agencies in Medellin city were reviewed. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis and the annual incidence of the event standardized for the general population was estimated. Potential survival-associated factors reported as OR with their corresponding 95% CI were explored. Results: A total of 1,447 patient records with OHCA between 2018 and 2019 were analyzed. The event incidence rate for the number of cases assessed was 28.1 (95 % CI 26.0-30.3) and 26.9 (95 % CI 24.929.1) cases per 100,000 inhabitants/year for 2018 and 2019, respectively; the incidence rate of treated OHCA was 2.6 (95 % CI 2.0-3.3) and 3.2 (95 % CI 2.5-4.0) per 100,000 inhabitants/year, for 2018 and 2019. Survival on arrival at hospitals of treated cases was 14.2 % (95 % CI 5.5-22.8) and 15.5 % (95 % CI 7.4-23.5) for 2018 and 2019, respectively. Conclusions: This study portrays the operating and care characteristics of the population experiencing OHCA in Medellín city. The incidence rate of the event and the survival were lower than those reported in the literature.
Resumen Introducción: Cada año, cinco millones de personas en el mundo presentan paro cardiaco prehospitalario (PCEH), de los cuales menos del 40 % reciben ayuda antes de la llegada de los sistemas de emergencia médica (SEM). Los operadores de ambulancias (OA) atienden a los que sufren un PCEH, su estabilización y posterior traslado. En Medellín, Colombia, existe un OA público y agencias privadas, pero la información acerca del PCEH y las características operacionales durante la respuesta a este evento es escasa. Objetivo: Estimar la incidencia del PCEH y explorar factores asociados a la supervivencia del evento en la ciudad de Medellín. Métodos: Estudio de cohorte retrospectivo de base poblacional. Se revisaron todos los registros médicos de pacientes que presentaron un PCEH que fueron evaluados y tratados por OA del SEM y de agencias privadas de Medellín. Se usaron estadísticos descriptivos para los datos y se estimó la incidencia anual del evento estandarizada para la población general. Se exploraron posibles factores asociados a la supervivencia, reportados como OR con su respectivos IC 95 %. Resultados: Se analizaron 1.447 registros de pacientes con PCEH presentados entre 2018 y 2019. La tasa de incidencia del evento para los casos evaluados fue de 28,1 (IC 95 % 26,0-30,3) y 26,9 (IC 95 % 24,9-29,1) casos por 100.000 habitantes/año, para 2018 y 2019, respectivamente; la tasa de incidencia del PCEH tratado fue de 2,6 (IC 95 % 2,0-3,3) y 3,2 (IC 95 % 2,5-4,0) por 100.000 habitantes/año, para 2018 y 2019. La supervivencia a la llegada a los hospitales de los casos tratados fue 14,2 % (IC 95 % 5,5-22,8) y del 15,5 % (IC 95 % 7,4-23,5) para 2018 y 2019, respectivamente. Conclusiones: Se muestra las características operativas y de atención de la población que presenta un PCEH en Medellín. La tasa de incidencia del evento y la supervivencia fueron menores a las reportadas en la literatura.
RESUMO
Background: The Code Blue (CB) is a universal emergency system used to alert the CB team for patients in cardiac or respiratory arrest. The purpose of this study is to evaluate CB calls in our hospital and determine the effectiveness and deficiencies of the application. Background: The code blue is a universal emergency system used to alert the CB team for patients in cardiac or respiratory arrest. The purpose of this study is to evaluate CB calls in our hospital and determine the effectiveness and deficiencies of the application. Methods: After receiving approval from the ethics committee, we analyzed retrospectively the CB call forms in our hospital between January 2020 and January 2024. The demographic data of the patients, CB call time and locations, the arrival time of the team, medical interventions, cardiopulmonary resuscitation time, outcomes of the calls and true-false calls rate were recorded. Results: We had 376 CB calls in the study period. The mean arrival time of the team was1.58±0.62 minutes. Most of the CB calls were given in intensive care units (140 patients, 37.23%), internal medicine services (50 patients, 13.30%), followed by palliative care unit (47 patients, 12.50%). Most of the CB calls (236 calls, 62.77%) were during off times. The rate of false CB calls was found to be %15.96. Of the 316 patients in the true CB codes, 198 patients were transferred to the ICU and 118 patients died. Conclusions: We found that CB calls were most frequently given from ICU’s during off hours. We think that the lack of a night duty doctor in the ICU, especially in rural hospitals like ours, led to this result. Each center should analyze CB calls at regular intervals and educational programs should be planned for these deficiencies.

Introducción. Se describe la utilidad del umbral crítico de administración (CAT por su denominación en inglés) como herramienta para la reanimación hemostática en pacientes con trauma severo y oclusión endovascular aórtica. Métodos. Revisión retrospectiva de pacientes adultos con hemorragia por trauma, con o sin oclusión endovascular aórtica (REBOA), atendidos entre enero de 2015 y junio de 2020, en un centro de trauma nivel I en Cali, Colombia. Se registraron variables demográficas, severidad del trauma, estado clínico, requerimiento transfusional, tiempo hasta CAT+ y CAT alcanzado (1, 2 ó 3). Resultados. Se incluyeron 93 pacientes, se utilizó REBOA en 36 y manejo tradicional en 57. El grupo REBOA presentó mayor volumen de sangrado (mediana de 3000 ml, RIC: 1950-3625 ml) frente al grupo control (mediana de1500 ml, RIC: 700-2975ml) (p<0,001) y mayor cantidad de glóbulos rojos transfundidos en las primeras 6 horas (mediana de 5, RIC:4-9); p=0,015 y en las primeras 24 horas (mediana de 6, RIC: 4-11); p=0,005. No hubo diferencias estadísticamente significativas en número de pacientes CAT+ entre grupos o tiempo hasta alcanzarlo. Sin embargo, el estado CAT+ durante los primeros 30 minutos de la cirugía fue mayor en grupo REBOA (24/36, 66,7 %) frente al grupo control (17/57, 29,8 %; p=0,001), teniendo este mayor tasa de mortalidad intrahospitalaria frente a los pacientes CAT-. Conclusión. El umbral crítico de administración es una herramienta útil en la reanimación hemostática de pacientes con trauma y REBOA, que podría predecir mortalidad precoz.
Introduction. The objective is to describe the utility of the Critical Administration Threshold (CAT) as a tool in hemostatic resuscitation in patients with severe trauma and REBOA. Methods. Retrospective review between January 2015 and June 2020 of adult patients with hemorrhage secondary to trauma with or without REBOA in a level I trauma center in Cali, Colombia. Demographic variables, trauma severity, clinical status, transfusion needs, time to CAT+ and number of CAT achieved (1, 2 or 3) were recorded. Results. Ninety-three patients were included, in which REBOA was used in 36 and traditional management in 57. The REBOA group had a higher bleeding volume (3000 ml), IQR: 1950-3625 ml vs the control group (1500 ml, IQR: 700-2975 ml) (p<0.001) and a higher rate of PRBC units transfused in the first 6 hours (median 5, IQR: 4-9); p=0.015 and in the first 24 hours (median 6, IQR: 4-11); p=0.005. There were no statistically significant differences in the number of CAT+ patients between groups or time to CAT+. However, CAT+ status during the first 30 minutes of surgery was higher in the REBOA Group (24/36, 66.7%) vs. the control group (17/57, 29.8%; p=0.001), having this group a higher in-hospital mortality rate vs. CAT- patients. Conclusion. CAT is a useful tool in the hemostatic resuscitation of patients with trauma and REBOA that could predict early mortality.

Objective:To summarize the experience and effect of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) on the treatment of sudden cardiac death (SCD).Methods:The data of 120 adults with SCD-ECPR in emergency department of the first affiliated hospital of Nanjing Medical University from April 2015 to April 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were grouped by Survival/death at 90 days, OHCA/IHCA (out-of-hospital/in-hospital cardiac arrest), with/without acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and divided according to 60 min of the time from cardiac arrest to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation (CA-Pump On time). Age, sex, Charlson comorbidity index, IHCA/OHCA, initial rhythm, no-flow time, CA-Pump On time, ECMO evacuation success rate, 90-day survival rate, ECMO treatment time were analyzed.Results:①Total of 114 adult patients with SCD-ECPR were enrolled, and 45 (39.5%) patients survived at 90 days, of whom 40 (88.9%) patients had good neurological outcomes.②Age and no-flow time were significantly lower in the 90-day survival group than that in death group, and the proportion of IHCA and shockable initial rhythm was higher. ③The no flow time in IHCA group was significantly lower than that in OHCA group, and the 90-day survival rate was higher. ④OHCA and regional interhospital transport prolonged CA-Pump On time and reduced the 90-day survival rate. ⑤The AMI group was older with a higher Charlson comorbidity index, and the 90-day survival rate was significantly lower than that in non-AMI group.Conclusions:ECPR improves the prognosis of patients with SCD, there are high benefits in patients with long healthy life expectancy, IHCA, shockable initial rhythm, and short no flow time. The smooth life-saving chain of SCD-ECPR improves survival rate, by screening high benefit candidates in patients with OHCA, delayed initiation of ECPR or requiring interhospital transport, despite CA-Pump On time > 60 min, there is still survival potential.
RESUMO
Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients undergoing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), and to explore the risk factors leading to poor prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of 95 patients with ECPR admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2020 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the survival status at the time of discharge, the patients were divided into the survival group and death group. The difference of clinical data between the two groups was compared to explore the risk factors related to death and poor prognosis. Risk factors associated with death were identified by Binary Logistic regression analysis. Results:A total of 95 patients with ECPR were included in this study, 62 (65.3%) died and 33 (34.7%) survived at discharge. Patients in the death group had longer low blood flow time [40 (30, 52.5) min vs. 30 (24.5, 40) min ] and total cardiac arrest time[40 (30, 52.5) min vs. 30(24.5, 40) min], shorter total hospital stay [3 (2, 7.25) d vs. 19 (13.5, 31) d] and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) assisted time [26.5 (17, 50) h vs. 62 (44, 80.5) h], and more IHCA patients (56.5% vs. 33.3%) and less had spontaneous rhythm recovery before ECMO (37.1% vs. 84.8%). Initial lactate value [(14.008 ± 5.188) mmol/L vs.(11.23 ± 4.718) mmol/L], APACHEⅡ score [(30.10 ± 7.45) vs. (25.88 ± 7.68)] and SOFA score [12 (10.75, 16) vs. 10 (9.5, 13)] were higher ( P< 0.05). Conclusions:No spontaneous rhythm recovery before ECMO, high initial lactic acid and high SOFA score are independent risk factors for poor prognosis in ECPR patients.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the major adverse kidney events (MAKE) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).Methods:The data of 75 patients with AMI-ECPR in Emergency Medicine Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from April 2015 to April 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were grouped by survival/death at 90 days, with/without renal replacement therapy (RRT), and whether to initiate RRT because of acute kidney injury (AKI). age, sex, Charlson comorbidity index, OHCA/IHCA (out-of-hospital/in-hospital cardiac arrest), initial rhythm, Gensini score, ECPR initial blood gas pH and lactate value, no-flow time, time from cardiac arrest to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation (CA-Pump On time), ECMO and RRT treatment time, 90-day survival rate were analyzed. Moreover, the renal function of the survivors was followed up.Results:① Total of 68 AMI-ECPR patients were enrolled, 22 (32.4%) patients survived at 90 days, 54 (79.4%) combined with RRT, and 48 (70.6%) MAKE within 90 days. ②Compared with the death group, the 90-day survival group had a higher proportion of initial shockable heart rhythm, a lower Gensini score, a higher ECPR initial blood gas pH and a lower lactic acid value. ③The severity of coronary artery disease, ECPR initial acidosis and hyperlactacemia in the RRT group was significantly higher than that in the non-RRT group, and all the non-RRT group patients survived. ④ There was no difference between the AKI-RRT group and the non-AKI-RRT group. Of 21 patients with stage 1 AKI initiating RRT, 5 survived, one of them still needs RRT for 90 days, and 7 patients with stage 2 to 3 AKI initiating RRT died.Conclusions:The 90-day MAKE rate in AMI-ECPR patients was as high as 70.6%, and the 90-day renal insufficiency rate in AMI-ECPR survivors with AKI was as high as 20.0%. Active initiation of RRT to avoid AKI or early initiation of RRT may improve the prognosis of AMI-ECPR patients.
RESUMO
Objective:To establish the pig model of cardiac arrest and resuscitation, and then investigate the protective role of sivelestat (SV) on the heart after resuscitation and its relation with β-catenin signaling pathway.Methods:Twenty-five healthy male white pigs were purchased. The animals were randomly divided into the Sham group ( n=6), cardiopulmonary resuscitation group (CPR, n=10), and CPR+SV group ( n=9). The experimental animal model was established by 9 min of cardiac arrest induced by the method of ventricular fibrillation and then 6 min of CPR in the CPR and CPR+SV groups. At 5 min after successful resuscitation, a dose of 10 mg/kg of SV was infused in a duration of 1h via the femoral vein with a micro-infusion pump in the CPR+SV group. Myocardial function evaluated by the values of stroke volume (SV) and global ejection fraction (GEF) was measured by PiCCO at baseline, and at 0.5, 1, 2, 4 h after resuscitation. The serum concentrations of cardiac injury biomarkers including cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and creatine kinase isoenzymes (CK-MB) were measured by ELISA using blood samples drawn from the femoral vein at baseline, and at 1, 2, 4, and 24 h after resuscitation. The animals were euthanized at 24 h after resuscitation, and then cardiac tissue samples were harvested to measure the protein expression levels of β-catenin, Cyclin D1, c-Myc, cleaved caspase-9, and cleaved caspase-3 by Western blot and the degree of cell apoptosis by TUNEL. Results:Prior to cardiac arrest, myocardial function and cardiac injury biomarkers were maintained at the same levels, and no differences were observed among the three groups (all P> 0.05). After resuscitation, myocardial dysfunction and cardiac injury were observed in the CPR and CPR+SV groups, in which the values of SV and GEF were significantly decreased and meanwhile the serum concentrations of cTnI and CKMB were significantly increased when compared with the Sham group (all P< 0.05). However, myocardial dysfunction and cardiac injury were significantly milder in the CPR+SV group, in which the value of SV at 4h post-resuscitation and the values of GEF starting 1h post-resuscitation were significantly increased, and the serum concentrations of cTnI and CKMB were significantly decreased at 4 and 24 h post-resuscitation when compared to the CPR group (all P< 0.05). Tissue measurements indicated that the change of β-catenin signaling pathway and the occurrence of cell apoptosis were observed in the heart at 24 h post-resuscitation in the CPR and CPR+SV groups, which were indicated by significant increases in the protein expression levels of β-catenin, Cyclin D1, c-Myc, cleaved caspase-9, and cleaved caspase-3, and marked elevation in the index of cell apoptosis when compared with the Sham groups (all P< 0.05). However, the expression levels of proteins mentioned above were significantly decreased in the heart at 24 h post-resuscitation and the index of cell apoptosis was significantly reduced in the CPR+SV group when compared to the CPR group (all P< 0.05). Conclusion:SV has the protective role in alleviating post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction and cardiac injury, in which the protective mechanism is possibly related to the alleviation of cell apoptosis through the inhibition of β-catenin signaling pathway activation.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the popularization of cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR)knowledge and science popularization needs among urban and rural residents in Tonghai County,Yuxi City,Yunnan Province,so as to explore the establishment of an efficient and appropriate science popularization model.Methods A total of 300 residents aged 15-60 years old were selected from Tonghai County,Yuxi City,Yunnan Province using stratified and simple random sampling methods.A self-designed questionnaire was used to conduct an anonymous questionnaire survey.Results Only 20.3%of Tonghai County residents master CPR skills,and 26.2%of Tonghai County residents have never heard of CPR.There is a statistically significant difference in the awareness rate of CPR between rural residents and non-rural residents(P<0.01).There are differences in residents'age and CPR awareness(P<0.01),the age and CPR are inversely proportional.The residents have a higher willingness to perform chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on strangers,66.2%and 68.6%respectively.63.79%of residents have never attended relevant training.But 92.76%of the people said they were willing to participate in the relevant training when they learned the training news.Conclusion Residents in Tonghai County generally lack knowledge of CPR first aid,but the demand for first aid knowledge of residential CPR is high and the attitude towards rescue is positive.It is recommended that relevant departments increase CPR science popularization and training efforts,and popularize CPR into villages.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the public's cognition and attitude towards general medicine,general practitioners,and pre-hospital first-aid knowledge in Ludian County,Yunnan Province,to find out the training and learning methods that are more acceptable to the public for this kind of related knowledge,and to propose targeted solutions.Methods A complete random sampling survey was conducted among the nucleic acid collection office at the gate of the vegetable market from October 15,2022,to December 30,2022,and the outpatient clinic of Wenping Street Health Center from January 1,2023,to February 28,2023,by using electronic questionnaire and paper questionnaire.Results Nearly 50%of the people in Ludian County of Yunnan Province lack the knowledge of general medicine and pre-hospital emergency care,especially the knowledge of electrical defibrillation.People with higher education and the medical profession have a higher understanding of general medicine,and people with a higher understanding of general medicine are more willing to participate in pre-hospital emergency care.The average Ridit value is:very familiar with general medicine(0.774)>Knowledge of some general practices(0.565)>Never heard of general practice(0.400).The higher education level and the more comprehensive understanding of general medicine had a positive impact on participation in pre-hospital emergency care,with B values of 0.624 and 0.619,OR 95%CI of 1.867(1.544~2.257)and 1.857(1.298~2.657),respectively.Taking medical staff as a reference,the B value of medical students was = 0.942,P = 0.234,the difference was not significant,and the B value of non-medical professional population was all less than 0,the effect is negative.In addition,most people have a positive attitude towards learning pre-hospital first aid,and more than 70%of people are willing to learn and train related knowledge of pre-hospital first aid.Conclusions People in urban areas of Ludian County,Yunnan Province have poor understanding of general practice,low recognition of general practitioners,low demand for general practitioners,and lack of awareness of the importance of pre-hospital emergency treatment.Because of the cognitive differences among different groups,it is necessary to conduct specific training for different groups.

RESUMO
Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics and first aid measures of children with drowning,and to provide scientific basis for the treatment and prevention of drowning in children.Methods:The clinical data of drowning children admitted to the Children's Medical Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan Normal University(Hunan Provincial People's Hospital)from January 2011 to December 2021 were retrospectively summarized. Baseline characteristics,prehospital emergency care and prognosis of the included children were analyzed.According to the time span, drowning children were divided into two stages, the first stage (2011-2016) and the second stage (2017-2021). According to cerebral performance category assessment scale,drowning children with cardiac arrest were divided into two groups: a group with good neurological prognosis and a group with poor neurological prognosis. The baseline characteristics,pre-hospital emergency care, and prognosis of drowning children during different periods and with different prognosis were analyzed.Results:A total of 53 children were enrolled during the study period,with 24 cases in the first phase(2011-2016)and 29 cases in the second phase(2017-2021).Boys accounted for 73.6%(39/53)of the cases, the age ranged from 1 month and 24 days to 14 years old,with 1-4 years old being the most common,accounting for 58.5%(31/53), and the season in which drowning occurred was more common in the summer(39.6%, 21/53).Six cases (11.3%) had significant neurological sequelae, and the mortality rate was 3.8%(2/53).There was a decrease in the proportion of drowning with water control in the second stage compared to the first stage(37.5% vs. 13.79%, P=0.046).Thirty-two(60.4%)children experienced on-site cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) after drowning,with 24 cases in the group with good neurological prognosis and 8 cases in the group with poor neurological prognosis.Children in the poor neurological prognosis group required CPR for a long duration [10.00(1.50, 25.00)min],had lower body temperature,Glasgow Coma Score,pH and higher blood glucose levels on admission(all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Drowning is most common in preschool children,common in boys,and drowning prevention measures for young children deserve focused attention. Children found to be in cardiac arrest at the time of drowning have a long duration of drowning and CPR,which predicts a poor neurological prognosis,and timely and effective on-site CPR is the key to reducing the drowning rate.
RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the effect of tubastatin A (TubA) on pyroptosis during brain injury after cardiac arrest and resuscitation in swine.Methods:Twenty-two conventional male white swine, weighing 34-39 kg, aged 4-6 months, were divided into 3 groups using a random number table: sham operation group (group S, n=6), cardiac arrest-cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CA-CPR) group ( n=8) and CA-CPR+ TubA group ( n=8). The swine model of CA-CPR was established by 9 min of cardiac arrest and 6 min of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in CA-CPR group and CA-CPR+ TubA group. TubA 4.5 mg/kg (in 50 ml of normal saline) was infused over 1 h via the femoral vein starting from 5 min after resuscitation in CA-CPR+ TubA group. Before developing the model and at 1, 2, 4 and 24 h after resuscitation (T 0-4), blood samples were collected from the femoral vein for determination of the concentrations of neuron specific enolase (NSE) and S100β protein in serum (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). Neurological deficit score (NDS) was evaluated at T 4. The animals were then sacrificed, and their brain cortex tissues were harvested to measure the expression of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3, gasdermin E (GSDME) and GSDME N-terminal (N-GSDME) (by Western blot) and contents of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18 (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). Results:Compared with group S, the serum concentrations of NSE and S100β were significantly increased at T 1-4, NDS was increased at T 4, the expression of HDAC6, caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3, GSDME and N-GSDME in brain cortex was up-regulated, and the contents of HMGB1, IL-1β and IL-18 were increased in CA-CPR and CA-CPR+ TubA groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group CA-CPR, the serum concentrations of NSE and S100β were significantly decreased at T 3, 4, NDS was decreased at T 4, the expression of HDAC6, caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3, GSDME and N-GSDME in brain cortex was down-regulated, and the contents of HMGB1, IL-1β and IL-18 were decreased in group CA-CPR+ TubA ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism by which TubA alleviates brain injury after cardiac arrest and resuscitation may be related to inhibition of pyroptosis in swine.
RESUMO
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to clarify the current status of Do-Not-Resuscitate discussions (DNRd) with terminally ill cancer patients in Japan and the psychological burden on bereaved families depending on whether or not a DNRd is performed. Method: A multicenter prospective observational study of advanced cancer patients admitted to 23 palliative care units (PCUs) in Japan was conducted, and a questionnaire survey of bereaved families was also conducted after patients died. Result: 1,605 patients were included in the analysis, and 71.4% of patients had a DNRd with doctors before PCU admission, 10.8% at admission, and 11.4% during admission. In contrast, 93.3% of family members had a DNRd with doctors before PCU admission, 48.4% at admission, and 52.1% during admission. Conclusion: Although DNRd was performed between patients and physicians in 72.3% of cases at any point throughout the course of time from before PCU admission to death, there was no evidence of psychological burden such as depression or complicated grief in the bereaved families due to patient participation in DNRd.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE To explore the potential mechanism of the effect of Xuebijing injection (XBJ) on neurological function and survival of rats after cardiac arrest (CA)/cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) based on the S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR)/S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) pathway. METHODS The CA/CPR rat model was established by ventricular fibrillation. Using a sham operation group as control, high-throughput sequencing was employed to analyze and mine the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine the contents of GSNOR and GSNO in the hippocampus; the active components of XBJ were screened and subjected to molecular docking analysis with GSNOR. The rats successfully modeled using the same method were divided into model group (n=30), inhibitor (GSNOR inhibitor) group (n=30), XBJ group (n=30) and XBJ+inhibitor group (n=30), and a sham operation group (n=30) was set up. Neurological function was evaluated and survival status was recorded at 3 hours, 24 hours and 3 days after the first 89) drug intervention. The contents of GSNOR and GSNO in the hippocampus of rats were determined in each group at the 0191) above time points, and the relationship of the contents of GSNOR and GSNO with modified neurologic severity scale (mNSS) score was analyzed. RESULTS GSNOR coding gene was differentially expressed between the model group and the sham operation group. Compared with the sham operation group, GSNOR content increased significantly in the hippocampus of rats in model group, while GSNO content decreased significantly (P<0.05). The active components of XBJ, such as 4- methylenemiltirone and salviolone, could be bound to GSNOR protein, with the binding energy lower than -6 kcal/mol, mainly connected by hydrogen bonds. Animal experiments revealed that mNSS score and GSNOR levels in the hippocampus of rats in the model group were significantly higher than those in the sham operation group (P<0.05), while GSNO levels and survival rate were significantly lower than those in the sham operation group (P<0.05). The above indexes of rats were improved significantly in administration groups, the mNSS score in the XBJ group was significantly lower than that in the inhibitor group, the content changes of GSNOR and GSNO in the inhibitor group were more obvious than those in the XBJ group, and the various indicators in the XBJ+inhibitor group were significantly better than the XBJ group and the inhibitor group (P<0.05). GSNOR content was positively correlated with the mNSS score, and GSNO content was negatively correlated with the mNSS score (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS XBJ can improve the neurological function of rats and enhance their survival rates after CA/CPR, the mechanism of which may be associated with the down-regulation of GSNOR and the up-regulation of GSNO.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the mid- and long-term training effect of deliberate practice combined with intensive training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) teaching for nurses receiving standardized training.Methods:A total of 160 nurses who received the first year of standardized training in Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from July 2020 to March 2021 were enrolled as subjects, and they were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 80 nurses in each group. The nurses in the control group received the mode of single deliberate practice, and those in the experimental group received deliberate practice combined with intensive training at months 0, 3, and 6. Assessment was performed for the two groups before and after training,with objective indicators and subjective evaluation as the assessment criteria. Objective score was determined by the immediate objective feedback provided by the electronic display of Resusci Anne ? QCPR, and subjective score was determined by the same group of examiners based on the evaluation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation performed by trainees,including environment evaluation, judgment of consciousness, judgment of respiration, initiation of emergency treatment system, re-evaluation after resuscitation, and overall evaluation. SPSS 18.0 was used for the independent samples t-test, the non-parametric test, and the chi-squares test. Results:After training, there were significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in the objective indicators of the percentage of correct compression (CC%) [85.500 (77.50, 93.00) vs. 81.00 (71.75, 89.00), Z=-2.49, P=0.013] and the proportion of correct ventilation (V%) [84.00 (75.00, 92.75) vs. 80.00 (64.00, 90.25), Z=-2.15, P=0.031]. Both groups had significant improvements in objective and subjective indicators after training (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Deliberate practice combined with intensive training at an interval of 3 months can effectively improve the mid- and long-term CPR skills of nurses receiving standardized training and is more suitable for high-level muscle memory training.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the status of the knowledge of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in community medical staff, and analyze the factors influencing their levels of CPR knowledge and skills, and to provide a basis for improving community CPR training programs.Methods:From January to March 2022, we conducted a survey for the knowledge of CPR among community medical staff in Beijing through WeChat using a self-made questionnaire based on the 2016 National Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation in China and the 2020 American Heart Association CPR guidelines. The questionnaire mainly focused on the basic information and CPR knowledge (full score, 17 points) and practice of medical workers. R4.0.3 software was used to perform multiple linear regression analysis.Results:A total of 990 medical personnel from 51 communities effectively responded to the survey. The mean CPR knowledge score was (10.27±2.87) points. The regression analysis showed that the CPR score was significantly lower in groups of male, non-31-40-year-olds, technical degrees, only 0-1 trainings in two years, not ever practicing CPR, and not ever using an automated external defibrillator (AED), suggesting that sex, age, educational attainment, training frequency, whether having the experience of CPR and AED practice or not were independent factors influencing the CPR score of community medical staff.Conclusions:The CPR competency of community medical staff needs to be improved, especially for those with technical degrees and non-31-40-year-olds. The training frequency should be increased based on the Ebbinghaus' forgetting curve, and stratified training is recommended for different populations. Those without practical experience should receive more CPR training with real-time feedback devices and high-fidelity simulation to improve their CPR skills.
RESUMO
Objective:To screen the independent influencing factors of restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in patients after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and establish a predictive model, and explore its clinical value.Methods:A retrospective case control study was conducted. The clinical data of cardiac arrest patients admitted to the emergency department of Tangdu Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University and received CPR from January to July 2023 were analyzed, including general information, blood biochemical indicators, main cause of cardiac arrest, whether it was defibrillation rhythm, duration from admission to CPR, and whether ROSC was achieved. The clinical data between the patients whether achieved ROSC or not were compared. The binary multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the independent influencing factors of ROSC in in-hospital CPR patients. According to the above influencing factors, the ROSC prediction model was established, and the receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of the model for ROSC.Results:A total of 235 patients who received CPR in the emergency department were enrolled, including 153 cases (65.11%) of in-hospital CPR and 82 cases (34.89%) of out-of-hospital CPR. The ROSC ratio was 30.21% (71/235). Among all patients, the majority were aged 61-80 years [40.43% (95/235)], and cardiogenic disease was the main cause of cardiac arrest [32.77% (77/235)]. Among 153 patients with in-hospital CPR, 89 were non-ROSC and 64 were ROSC with ROSC rate of 41.83%. Compared with the non-ROSC group, the patients in the ROSC group had lower blood lactic acid (Lac), N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), Lac/albumin (Alb) ratio (LAR), and ratio of non-defibrillation rhythm [Lac (mmol/L): 5.50 (2.33, 9.65) vs. 7.10 (3.50, 13.35), NT-proBNP (μg/L): 0.87 (0.20, 8.68) vs. 3.00 (0.58, 20.17), LAR: 0.14 (0.07, 0.29) vs. 0.19 (0.10, 0.43), non-defibrillation rhythm ratio: 68.75% (44/64) vs. 93.26% (83/89)], higher actual base excess (ABE) and Alb [ABE (mmol/L): -3.95 (-12.75, 0.23) vs. -7.50 (-13.50, -3.35), Alb (g/L): 38.13±7.03 vs. 34.09±7.81], and shorter duration from admission to CPR [hours: 3.25 (1.00, 14.00) vs. 8.00 (2.00, 27.50)], the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Binary multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that LAR [odds ratio ( OR) = 0.037, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.005-0.287], non-defibrillation rhythm ( OR = 0.145, 95% CI was 0.049-0.426), and duration from admission to CPR ( OR = 0.984, 95% CI was 0.972-0.997) were independent influencing factors for ROSC in hospitalized CPR patients (all P < 0.05). Based on the above influencing factors, a ROSC prediction model was constructed through regression analysis results. The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for predicting ROSC in in-hospital CPR patients was 0.757 (95% CI was 0.680-0.834), Yoden index was 0.429, sensitivity was 76.6%, and specificity was 66.3%. Conclusions:LAR, non-defibrillation rhythm and duration from admission to CPR were independent influencing factors for ROSC in patients with in-hospital CPR. The ROSC prediction model established based on the above influencing factors has a good predictive value for ROSC of CPR patients in hospital, and can guide clinicians to evaluate the prognosis of patients through relevant indicators as early as possible.
