Utstein-style reporting templates provide a structured framework with which to compare
systems of care for cardiac arrest. The 2004 Utstein reporting template encompassed both …

At present, there is no single unifying definition for PEA. The common denominator is the
presence of spontaneous organized cardiac electric activity in the absence of blood flow …

Objectives Our primary objective was to assess the accuracy of Doppler ultrasound versus
manual palpation in detecting any pulse with an arterial line waveform in cardiac arrest …

Introduction A great deal of the literature has focused specifically on true pulseless electrical
activity (PEA), whereas there is a dearth of research regarding pseudo-PEA. This narrative …

Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) holds immense potential to manage critically
deteriorating infants within the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and is increasingly used …

Exsanguination leading to cardiac arrest is the terminal phase of uncontrolled hemorrhage.
Resuscitative interventions have focused on preload and afterload support. Outcomes …

Background Several prospective studies have demonstrated that the echocardiographic
detection of any myocardial activity during PEA is strongly associated with higher rates of …

Background Reliable detection of return of spontaneous circulation with minimal
interruptions of chest compressions is part of high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation …

Cardiac arrest from exsanguination is the final stage of hemorrhagic shock, and for the
majority of patients, this represents a terminal event. 2 The dismal survival associated with …

In this issue of the Journal Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, Holmström et al1
analyzed unique prospectively collected data. The authors obtained the data on 641 …
