DOI: 10.1007/s10877-020-00509-8
Abstract: The study objective was to understand if features derived from continuous pulse oximetry data can provide advanced warning of pulseless electrical activity arrest in the general care inpatient setting. Retrospective analysis of SpO2 and pulse… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.resuscitation.2019.01.021
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Presence of electrocardiographic rhythm in the absence of palpable pulses defines pulseless electrical activity (PEA) and the electrocardiogram (ECG) may provide a source of information during resuscitation. The aim of this study was to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tjem.2019.07.004
Abstract: Introduction Baroreceptor damage and hypersensitivity can produce labile autonomic blood pressure control. Neck irradiation for malignancy is a well-known but under-recognised cause of baroreceptor failure. Case presentation We describe a dramatic delayed complication of neck… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41372-022-01349-x
Abstract: There is limited information on pulseless electrical activity (PEA)/asystolic cardiac arrest (CA) in the infant population. The aim is to describe the incidence and factors associated with outcomes in infants with PEA/asystolic CA. Single-center retrospective… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/milmed/usab229
Abstract: BACKGROUND Prehospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation has commonly been considered ineffective in traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest because traditional chest compressions do not produce substantial cardiac output. However, recent evidence suggests that chest compressions located over the left ventricle… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/archdischild-2018-316087
Abstract: The 2015 neonatal resuscitation guidelines added ECG to assess an infant’s heart rate when determining the need for resuscitation at birth. However, a recent case report raised concerns about this technique in the delivery room.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/emermed-2017-206878
Abstract: Background It is unclear if there are predictors of survival, including ECG characteristics, that can guide resuscitative efforts in pulseless electrical activity (PEA) cardiac arrests. We studied the predictive potential of presenting prehospital ECGs on… read more here.

DOI: 10.33151/ajp.18.928
Abstract: Background Pulseless electrical activity (PEA) is managed in accordance with international and national guidelines. These guidelines are not fully evidenced, resulting in emergency medical services in the United Kingdom amending guidelines to support paramedics when… read more here.
