  2. 1. Augmentation of vital organ blood flow during experimental cardiopulmonary resuscitation

    Author : Rolf Gedeborg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Cardiac arrest; cardiopulmonary resuscitation; epinephrine; high-dose epinephrine; buffer; cerebral blood flow; post-resuscitation period; aortic occlusion; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Anestesiologi; Anaesthesiology;

    Abstract : Clinical outcome from cardiac arrest remains poor. If the time from arrest to restoration of spontaneous circulation can be shortened and resuscitation techniques improved so that higher blood flow and oxygen delivery to vital organs is achieved, it is possible that the outcome from cardiac arrest could improve.

  4. 2. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation : Pharmacological Interventions for Augmentation of Cerebral Blood Flow

    Author : Jakob Johansson; Sten Rubertsson; Rolf Gedeborg; Sven-Erik Gisvold; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Anaesthesiology and intensive care; Adrenaline epinephrine ; Cardiac arrest; Cardiopulmonary resuscitation; Cerebral blood flow; Guidelines; Post-resuscitation period; Vasopressin; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; Anaesthetics and intensive care; Anestesiologi och intensivvård;

    Abstract : Cardiac arrest results in immediate interruption of blood flow. The primary goal of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is to re-establish blood flow and hence oxygen delivery to the vital organs. READ MORE

  5. 3. Experimental cardiopulmonary cerebral resuscitation : A study of cerebral perfusion with special reference to the postresuscitation disturbances

    Author : Ala Nozari; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Cardiac arrest; cardiopulmonary resuscitation; cerebral blood flow; post-resuscitation period; epinephrine; vasopressin; aortic occlusion; isoprostane; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Anestesiologi; Anaesthesiology;

    Abstract : Ischemic neuronal injury continues to be a major delimiting factor in achieving successful clinical outcomesafter resuscitation from cardiac arrest. In this thesis, a pig model of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) wasused to address the effects of different interventions on cerebral blood flow and oxygenation during CPR and theinitial postresuscitation period.

  6. 4. Cardiac arrest outside and inside hospital from a 30 year perspective in the Municipality of Gothenburg

    Author : Martin Fredriksson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : cardiac arrest; heart arrest; mechanical chest compression; prognosis; out-of-hospital cardiac arrest; in-hospital cardiac arrest; Utstein; outcome; DNAR;

    Abstract : Aims: 1:To describe the epidemiology of both out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) in the Municipality of Gothenburg. 2:To describe the differences and similarities in cardiac arrest inside and outside hospital. READ MORE

  7. 5. Assessment of neurological prognosis after cardiac arrest – clinical and neurophysiological aspects

    Author : Linus Lilja; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiac arrest; neurological prognosis; prognostication; electroencephalography; somatosensory evoked potentials;

    Abstract : Background: Post-resuscitation care after cardiac arrest in adults includes targeted temperature management (TTM) to mitigate secondary brain injury. The recommended target temperature is between 32°C and 36°C after a large, international, randomized trial showed comparable outcomes (33°C vs. 36°C). READ MORE
