But nothing compares to using them to help save a life. Find...

No survival differences after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest were seen at a preliminary DSMB review in the ROC PRIMED trial, which compared early vs delayed post-CPR assessment for defibrillation and tested the effectiveness of a device for optimizing intrathoracic pressure during CPR.

The ROC PRIMED trial, comparing different EMS protocols for cardiac arrest, was halted after data analysis showed no difference in outcomes. The two arms of the trial evaluated 1) an impedance threshold device attached to the airway and 2) two different durations of CPR applied before rhythm assessment and (when indicated) defibrillation. The NIH press release is a good example of the obfuscation that...

... survival.

Nelson, Landrieu Giving CPR to Triggers

The crappy idea that just won't die is back, now courtesy Ben Nelson and Mary Landrieu . "There's a possibility that [triggers could make a comeback]," said Sen. Ben Nelson (D-NE). "Right now, we don't know what the actual version of the plan is, because it hasn't come back from CBO...so I think when we get that back, we'll take a look and see what the scoring is, and maybe figure out...

Does proportionality still have a role in legal costs disputes?

... some light on the issue, I will let you have my thoughts on the subject. The starting point is CPR 44.4(2): “Where the amount of costs is to be assessed on the standard basis, the court will – (a) only allow costs which are proportionate to the matters in issue”. In the early days of the CPR, defendants, naively with the benefit of hindsight, thought this meant what it said. Costs...

Metra considers having defibrillators on all trains

James Allen, his heart beating wildly out of rhythm, collapsed shortly after he boarded a commuter train. Despite pleas from passengers and from a doctor who performed CPR on the 61-year-old Wellesley scientist, the conductor refused to halt for emergency help at the next station, or even two more after that as precious minutes ticked off. If the Boston-bound train had carried an easy-to-use device...

Mia started to do that while she at the same time felt she was starting to go into labor. She gave her son air as others called for an ambulance. "I lost the sense of time.
