In this preliminary study, vest CPR, despite its late application, successfully increased aortic pressure and coronary perfusion pressure, and there was an insignificant trend toward a greater likelihood of the return of spontaneous circulation with vest CPR than with continued manual CPR. The effect of vest CPR on survival, however, is currently unknown and will require further study.
This report provides some evidence of the superiority of the superior gluteal artery perforator flap over the superior gluteal artery flap for breast reconstruction, particularly with regard to ease and reliability of the microvascular anastomosis. However, in the expert hands of its early proponents, the superior gluteal artery flap did remarkably well.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
