Providing whole blood for an urban paramedical ambulance system

Michael R. Sayre, Betty Y. Yang, David L. Murphy, Catherine R. Counts, Maika Dang, Peter Ubaldi, Erin E. Tuott, John R. Hess

Summary: Through collaboration with the state health department, we successfully provided whole blood resuscitation to fire department paramedics, offering an effective treatment for urban trauma patients. After two public hearings, statewide approval was obtained for emergency uncrossmatched blood transfusion by paramedics. Over a year, 160 units of whole blood were provided, with 51 units transfused to 39 patients, including 30 trauma patients.

Prevalence and Patterns of Resuscitation-Associated Injury Detected by Head-to-Pelvis Computed Tomography After Successful Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Resuscitation

Aris Karatasakis, Basar Sarikaya, Linda Liu, Martin L. Gunn, Peter J. Kudenchuk, Medley O. Gatewood, Charles Maynard, Michael R. Sayre, Catherine R. Counts, David J. Carlbom, Rachael M. Edwards, Kelley R. H. Branch

Summary: This study aimed to assess the prevalence, types, and effects of resuscitation-associated injuries in patients resuscitated from out-of-hospital circulatory arrest (OHCA). The study found that computed tomography scans were able to identify resuscitation injuries in most OHCA patients, with nearly 1 in 7 having time-critical complications and half having extensive rib-cage injuries.

A cost-aware framework for the development of AI models for healthcare applications

Summary: Accurate artificial intelligence models can be costly and impractical in emergency and critical-care medicine. This study presents a cost-aware AI framework that optimizes the trade-off between prediction performance and feature cost, reducing cost and improving accuracy in disease diagnosis.

Focused carotid ultrasound to predict major adverse cardiac events among emergency department patients with chest pain

Steven C. Brooks, Marco L. A. Sivilotti, Marie-France Hetu, Patrick A. Norman, Andrew G. Day, Nicole O'Callaghan, Vlad Latiu, Joseph Newbigging, Braeden Hill, Amer M. Johri

Summary: Point-of-care focused vascular ultrasound (FOVUS), performed by a sonographer, can predict major adverse cardiac events (MACE) within 30 days among patients with suspected cardiac ischemia in the emergency department. However, the prognostic performance of FOVUS as a stand-alone risk stratification tool is insufficient.

Scoping review of echocardiographic parameters associated with diagnosis and prognosis after resuscitated sudden cardiac arrest

Linda Liu, Aris Karatasakis, Peter J. Kudenchuk, James N. Kirkpatrick, Michael R. Sayre, David J. Carlbom, Nicholas J. Johnson, Jeffrey L. Probstfield, Catherine Counts, Kelley R. H. Branch

Summary: This study analyzed published data on early post-resuscitation echocardiography, and found limited evidence supporting its use in determining the cardiac causes of sudden death and predicting prognosis. Further research is needed to enhance the clinical application of early echocardiographic findings in post arrest care.

Accuracy of Self-Reported COVID-19 Vaccination Status Compared With a Public Health Vaccination Registry in Quebec: Observational Diagnostic Study

Summary: This study aimed to determine the accuracy and reliability of self-reported vaccination status. The results showed that self-reported vaccination status had high accuracy for adult patients who could self-report their vaccination data.

Prehospital Administration of Norepinephrine and Epinephrine for Shock after Resuscitation from Cardiac Arrest

Emma R. Wender, Catherine R. Counts, Molly Van Dyke, Michael R. Sayre, Charles Maynard, Nicholas J. Johnson

Summary: This study compared the use of epinephrine versus norepinephrine for shock treatment in patients resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The findings showed that patients who received epinephrine had a higher risk of prehospital rearrest, but there was no significant difference in survival and neurological outcomes compared to patients who received norepinephrine.

Community Interventions for Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest in Resource-Limited Settings: A Scoping Review Across Low, Middle, and High-Income Countries

Nicholas Grubic, Braeden Hill, Katherine S. Allan, Katie N. Dainty, Amer M. Johri, Steven C. Brooks

Summary: This review evaluated community-based interventions for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in resource-limited settings. The study found that there are global differences in community response to OHCA in resource-limited settings, with limited research in low-income countries and certain continents. Evaluation of interventions beyond CPR and/or AED training is needed in low- and middle-income countries to guide community emergency planning and health policies.

Diagnostic yield, safety, and outcomes of Head-to-pelvis sudden death CT imaging in post arrest care: The CT FIRST cohort study

Kelley R. H. Branch, Medley O. Gatewood, Peter J. Kudenchuk, Charles Maynard, Michael R. Sayre, David J. Carlbom, Rachel M. Edwards, Catherine R. Counts, Jeffrey L. Probstfield, Robin Brusen, Nicholas Johnson, Martin L. Gunn

Summary: The study aimed to determine whether a head-to-pelvis CT scan improves the diagnostic yield and speed for identifying causes of out of hospital circulatory arrest. Patients who were successfully resuscitated from OHCA were included in the study, and it was found that adding SDCT scanning significantly increased the diagnostic yield and reduced the time to diagnosis compared to standard of care alone.

THE COMPENSATORY RESERVE INDEX FOR PREDICTING HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK IN PREHOSPITAL TRAUMA

Andrew J. Latimer, Catherine R. Counts, Molly Van Dyke, Natalie Bulger, Charles Maynard, Thomas D. Rea, Peter J. Kudenchuk, Richard B. Utarnachitt, Jennifer Blackwood, Amy J. Poel, Saman Arbabi, Michael R. Sayre

Summary: This study analyzed the application of the compensatory reserve index (CRI) in trauma patients. The study found that lower CRI-T values were associated with an increased likelihood of hemorrhagic shock and could be used as a predictor for hemorrhagic shock, but it was not as effective as prehospital vital signs in diagnosing hemorrhagic shock.

Acute SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Incidence and Outcomes of Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

Jennifer Z. Liu, Catherine R. Counts, Christopher J. Drucker, Jamie M. Emert, David L. Murphy, Leilani Schwarcz, Peter J. Kudenchuk, Michael R. Sayre, Thomas D. Rea

Summary: This study aims to assess the association between COVID-19 and the incidence and outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The findings suggest that the higher incidence and lower survival rate of OHCA during the pandemic were not primarily due to SARS-CoV-2 infection, but rather indirect factors that affected OHCA prevention and treatment.

Metronome use improves achievement of a target compression rate in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: A retrospective analysis

Jacob Kennedy, Kimberly Machado, Charles Maynard, Robert G. Walker, Michael R. Sayre, Catherine R. Counts

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate chest compression rates (CCR) with and without the use of a metronome during treatment of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The use of a metronome resulted in a median CCR of 110.5 per minute, indicating improved compliance to the target compression rate.
