BACKGROUND
Since 2000, resuscitation guidelines remain uniform across all cardiac arrest patients, focusing on the delivery of chest compressions to a standardized rate and depth and algorithmic vasopressor dosing. Although the concept of goal-directed hemodynamic optimization as a treatment
1. Introduction: Global cerebral ischaemic-reperfusion brain injury following cardiac arrest (CA) can lead to intracranial hypertension and, occasionally, acute brain swelling. Even small increases in brain volume due to edema can result in harmful increases in intracranial pressure due to the
Abstract
At the Department of Highly Specialized Neurorehabilitation/Traumatic Brain Injury, Rigshospitalet (satellite department at Hvidovre Hospital), approximately 100 patients (pt.) are admitted with severe brain damage every year. From 2015 to 2017, 305 pt. were admitted. Out of the 305 pt.,

Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) in adults has been defined as a non-specific systemic inflammatory process in the absence of infection, following incidents such as trauma, burns, pancreatitis, or major surgery. For children, age-specific SIRS criteria were established by the
• Patients:
The inclusion criteria are:
1. age>18 years;
2. KT recipient.
The exclusion criteria are:
1. metallic joint prostheses, cardiac stent or pacemakers, decompensated cirrhosis, pregnancy and limb amputations (due to bioimpedance technique limitations);
2. no prior diagnosis of pulmonary
This prospective, single-arm trial will include all consecutive patients undergoing cannulation of peripheral VA ECMO at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) from April 2019 to March 2020. All enrolled patients will undergo surgical placement of Impella® via axillary artery within 48 hours after
Rescue transesophageal echocardiography (RescueTEE) is an unplanned ultrasound examination performed on an urgent or emergent basis to diagnose causes of unexpected hemodynamic instability or cardiopulmonary arrest. The indication for RescueTEE is generally based on the individual patient's
Patients admitted to the Cardiology Hospital, National Medical Center Century XXI, will be included and a permanent pacemaker will be installed due to alterations in atrio-ventricular conduction that meet the selection criteria. They will be explained what the research consists of and they will be
Decision to perform this observational study was made due to the lack of information on the local incidence and risk factors for the development of immediate postoperative delirium (IPD).
A literature review was done to study the already implicated perioperative causative factors as well as other
Umbilical cord cutting determines the separation of the newborn from mother. Umbilical cord clumping consists in the binding of the umbilical cord by nipper to interrupt blood flow from placenta to foetus. In the spontaneous labor there are two modalities to obtain umbilical cord clamping: the first
The supraclavicular brachial plexus block is widely used in upper limb surgery below the shoulder. Although it is easier and more stable than axillary nerve block and subclavian brachial plexus block, long-acting local anesthetics are used for long-term blockade with traditional block methods.
Epidemiology Incidence of Supraventricular tachycardia is estimated to occur in 1 in 250 otherwise healthy children. About 50% of children with Supraventricular tachycardia present with the first episode in the first year of life.
After infancy there is another surge in incidence in early childhood
Oxygen is probably the most frequently used drug both in the prehospital and emergency setting. It is cheap, easily administered, and, at least for shorter time frames, widely believed to be without any risk of harm.
Treatment with oxygen is indicated in the state of hypoxemia in order to prevent
The study consists of four sub studies
