    Abstract We report a case of a 56 year old male in ventricular fibrillation (VF) cardiac arrest for a total of 2 hours and 50 minutes who was diagnosed with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) during a brief 10 min period of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). The patient underwent successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) while receiving mechanical chest compressions for ongoing VF. Our case demonstrates the potential for neurologically intact survival in VF cardiac arrest patients despite prolonged periods of VF who are treated with mechanical CPR and intra-arrest PCI.

    Abstract Venous access is essential to providing emergency care for critically ill or injured patients. Obtaining peripheral or central access can be problematic and time consuming. Intraosseous (IO) fluid administration provides similar flow rates and central circulation times compared to central lines, but use of these devices to monitor blood pressure has not been explored. We report a case of successful IO pressure (IOP) monitoring through an IO during the resuscitation of a 31-year-old male. This is the first report of monitoring IOP in a clinical setting and comparing it to traditional measures of central pressure.

    Abstract Background: The likelihood of neurologically favorable survival declines with prolonged resuscitation. However, the ability of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) to modulate this decline is unknown. Our aim was to examine the effects of resuscitation duration on survival and metabolic profile in patients who undergo ECPR for refractory ventricular fibrillation/ventricular tachycardia out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
    Methods: We retrospectively evaluated survival in 160 consecutive adults with refractory ventricular fibrillation/ventricular tachycardia out-of-hospital cardiac arrest treated with the University of Minnesota (UMN) ECPR protocol (transport with ongoing cardiopulmonary resuscitation [CPR] to the cardiac catheterization laboratory for ECPR) compared with 654 adults who had received standard CPR in the amiodarone arm of the ALPS trial (Amiodarone, Lidocaine, or Placebo Study). We evaluated the metabolic changes and rate of survival in relation to duration of CPR in UMN-ECPR patients.
    Results: Neurologically favorable survival was significantly higher in UMN-ECPR patients versus ALPS patients (33% versus 23%;
    Conclusions: ECPR was associated with improved neurologically favorable survival at all CPR durations <60 minutes despite severe progressive metabolic derangement. However, CPR duration remains a critical determinate of survival.

    Abstract Aim of the study: Negative intrathoracic pressure (ITP) during the decompression phase of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is essential to refill the heart, increase cardiac output, maintain cerebral and coronary perfusion pressures, and improve survival. In order to generate negative ITP, an airway seal is necessary. We tested the hypothesis that some supraglottic airway (SGA) devices do not seal the airway as well the standard endotracheal tube (ETT).
    Methods: Airway pressures (AP) were measured as a surrogate for ITP in seven recently deceased human cadavers of varying body habitus. Conventional manual, automated, and active compression-decompression CPR were performed with and without an impedance threshold device (ITD) in supine and Head Up positions. Positive pressure ventilation was delivered by an ETT and 5 SGA devices tested in a randomized order in this prospective cross-over designed study. The primary outcome was comparisons of decompression AP between all groups.
    Results: An ITD was required to generate significantly lower negative ITP during the decompression phase of all methods of CPR. SGAs varied in their ability to support negative ITP.
    Conclusion: In a human cadaver model, the ability to generate negative intrathoracic pressures varied with different SGAs and an ITD regardless of the body position or CPR method. Differences in SGAs devices should be strongly considered when trying to optimize cardiac arrest outcomes, as some SGAs do not consistently develop a seal or negative intrathoracic pressure with multiple different CPR methods and devices.

    Abstract Objectives: Prehospital 12-lead electrocardiograms (PTLs) decrease time to thrombolytics. Paramedics have performed them successfully for years, but emergency medical technicians (EMTs) have not typically performed them. To determine whether PTLs could be considered a basic life support (BLS) skill, the authors conducted a pilot study to determine whether scene times are lengthened when EMTs obtain PTLs, whether EMTs can appropriately select patients for PTLs, and what value physicians place on prehospital PTLs.
    Methods: The authors prospectively evaluated PTL performance in four BLS agencies. EMTs provided standard cardiac care to patients on even days. On odd days, they additionally performed a PTL. Scene times of patients receiving a PTL (n=77) were compared with scene times of similar patients not receiving one (n=100).
    Results: EMTs attempted to perform 101 PTLs, of which 77 were eligible for inclusion. The mean scene time [95% confidence interval] of patients on even days (no 12-lead) was 11.9 [11.0, 12.8] minutes, compared with 16.9 [15.8, 18.0] minutes for patients who received a PTL. Scene times increased by 5.0 [3.6, 6.4] minutes when a PTL was added to the evaluation. Physician feedback was received on 63 of 77 PTLs. Receiving physicians agreed that 59 of 63 (93.6%) patients needed the PTL and found them moderately helpful (3.56 on a 1 to 5 scale).
    Conclusion: When EMTs performed PTLs, scene times increased approximately 5 minutes. Most physicians agreed that the PTL was indicated. PTL acquisition by EMTs appears feasible with slightly lengthened scene times, but evaluation in other BLS agencies is necessary to validate this conclusion.
