Introduction: Sudden cardiac arrest is one of the most common causes of death in the world. Today, cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the prehospital phase, although crucial in the emergency care system, remains a weak link in the survival chain. Training in basic life support should begin in the school years in order to reach a larger population over time. The aim of the study was to assess the degree of readiness of students and their parents for the early implementation of training in basic life support. Materials and Methods: we surveyed 236 people, of which 118 students (group 1) of the primary school in Sumy and 118 - their parents (group 2). The survey was conducted anonymously. The questionnaire included 24 statements that determined the personal attitude to the need for early implementation of basic life support skills in primary school students, which later allowed us to determine the degree of readiness of students and their parents to solve this urgent problem for the world community. Correlation analysis was performed for groups 1 and 2 for more significant indicators. Results: the results of the study indicate that the level of readiness of students and parents contributes to the possibility of early implementation of resuscitation training in schools, which can help increase the number of people in communities who have basic life skills and will be ready to use them if needed. Conclusions: Thus, our research indicates that students and their parents are positive about learning basic life support in primary school and tend to think that mastering BLS skills will significantly increase students’ self-confidence when they witness an emergency.

Background In-hospital cardiac arrest is a major public health issue. It is a serious condition; most probably end up with death within a few minutes even with corrective measures. However, cardiopulmonary resuscitation is expected to increase the probability of survival and prevent neurological disabilities in patients with cardiac arrest. Having a pooled prevalence of survival to hospital discharge after cardiopulmonary resuscitation is vital to develop strategies targeted to increase probability of survival among patients with cardiac arrest. Therefore, this systematic review and meta-analysis was aimed to assess the pooled prevalence of survival to hospital discharge among pediatric patients who underwent cardiopulmonary resuscitation for in-hospital cardiac arrest. Methods PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane review databases were searched. To have current (five-year) evidence, only studies published in 2016 to 2020 were included. The weighted inverse variance random-effects model at 95%CI was used to estimate the pooled prevalence of survival. Heterogeneity assessment, test of publication bias, and subgroup analyses were also employed accordingly. Results Twenty-five articles with a total sample size of 28,479 children were included in the final analysis. The pooled prevalence of survival to hospital discharge was found to be 46% (95% CI = 43.0–50.0%; I2 = 96.7%; p < 0.001). Based on subgroup analysis by “continent” and “income level”, lowest prevalence of pooled survival was observed in Asia (six studies; pooled survival =36.0% with 95% CI = 19.01–52.15%; I2 = 97.4%; p < 0.001) and in low and middle income countries (six studies, pooled survival = 34.0% with 95% CI = 17.0–51.0%, I2 = 97.67%, p < 0.001) respectively. Conclusion Although there was an extremely high heterogeneity among reported results (I2 = 96.7%), in this meta-analysis more than half of pediatric patients (54%) who underwent cardiopulmonary resuscitation for in-hospital cardiac arrest did not survived to hospital discharge. Therefore, developing further strategies and encouraging researches might be crucial.

BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of cardiac arrest (CA), which are presented as sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and sudden cardiac death (SCD). To assess the impact of CPR duration on the functional outcome, level of independence, and survival among patients with in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA). MATERIAL AND METHODS: This prospective longitudinal pilot study was conducted at a tertiary care hospital in South India. Data were collected using consecutive sampling techniques from nine patients with IHCA, and outcomes were measured using the cerebral performance category (CPC) and Katz level of independence (LOI) during the immediate post-CPR, 30th day, and 90th day. Based on the principles of pilot study design, descriptive statistics was used to analyze the results. Inferential statistics analysis was not applicable based on the sample size of the pilot study. RESULTS: Nine patients were included in this pilot study. The mean and median age of the patients were 48.11 ± 8.66 (46, IQR, 32-67 years) and 77.8% were male patients. The primary medical diagnosis was cardiology and neurology conditions among 44.4% and 22.2% of patients. The mean and median CPR duration was 12.11 ± 4.59 minutes (IQR, 8-15.50) and 44.4% achieved a return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) with a mean ROSC time of 5.56 ± 7.418. The mean CPC score in the immediate post-CPR period and 30th day was 4 ± 1.732 and 4.56 ± 1.33, with mortality of 66.7% and 33.3% survivors in the immediate post-CPR period. While the mean LOI score among the survivors during the immediate post-CPR and 30th day was zero and four. which highlights the complete dependency of patients during the immediate post-CPR with significant improvement by the 30th day and unchanged until the 90th day. CONCLUSIONS: The overall mortality and survival were 88.8% and 11.1%, respectively, by the 90th day. The pilot study is feasible at the end of the study. However, due to the difficulty in obtaining CA, an additional tertiary hospital was included in the larger study.
