“…The development of specific, evidence‐based clinical guidelines for human cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), based upon extensive surveys of the literature by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) has allowed consistent training for human healthcare professionals and the lay public, leading directly to improved outcomes . No comparable evidence‐based guidelines have been available in veterinary medicine, although recommendations on practical execution of CPR in small animals have been published .…”

Objective -To present a series of evidence-based, consensus guidelines for veterinary CPR in dogs and cats. Design -Standardized, systematic evaluation of the literature, categorization of relevant articles according to level of evidence and quality, and development of consensus on conclusions for application of the concepts to clinical practice. Questions in five domains were examined: Preparedness and Prevention, Basic Life Support, Advanced Life Support, Monitoring, and Post-Cardiac Arrest Care. Standardized worksheet templates were used for each question, and the results reviewed by the domain members, by the RECOVER committee, and opened for comments by veterinary professionals for 4 weeks. Clinical guidelines were devised from these findings and again reviewed and commented on by the different entities within RECOVER as well as by veterinary professionals. Setting -Academia, referral practice and general practice. Results -A total of 74 worksheets were prepared to evaluate questions across the five domains. A series of 101 individual clinical guidelines were generated. In addition, a CPR algorithm, resuscitation drug-dosing scheme, and postcardiac arrest care algorithm were developed. Conclusions -Although many knowledge gaps were identified, specific clinical guidelines for small animal veterinary CPR were generated from this evidence-based process. Future work is needed to objectively evaluate the effects of these new clinical guidelines on CPR outcome, and to address the knowledge gaps identified through this process.

“…[17242526] A third factor that might result in higher survival rates is the level of training of the resuscitation team members and their adherence to resuscitation guidelines. Many previously published studies reported better survival rates after formal resuscitation training,[2728293031] while Curry and Gass[32] found that the death rate was not lower when resuscitation was performed by BLS-trained staff in comparison to untrained staff.…”

Objectives:Data reflecting cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) efforts in Saudi Arabia are limited. In this study, we analyzed the characteristics, and estimated the outcome, of in-hospital CPR in a teaching hospital in Saudi Arabia over 4 years.Methods:A retrospective, observational study was conducted between January 2009 and December 2012 and included 4361 patients with sudden cardiopulmonary arrest. Resuscitation forms were reviewed. Demographic data, resuscitation characteristics, and survival outcomes were recorded.Results:The mean ± standard deviation age of arrested patient was 40 ± 31 years. The immediate survival rate was 64%, 43% at 24 h, and 30% at discharge. The death rate was 70%. Respiratory type of arrest, time and place of arrest, short duration of arrest, witnessed arrest, the use of epinephrine and atropine boluses, and shockable arrhythmias were associated with higher 24-h survival rates. A low survival rate was found among patients with cardiac types of arrest, and those with a longer duration of arrest, pulseless electrical activity, and asystole. Comorbidities were present in 3786 patients with cardiac arrest and contributed to a poor survival rate (P < 0.001).Conclusions:The study confirms the findings of previously published studies in highly developed countries and provides some reflection on the practice of resuscitation in Saudi Arabia.

PURPOSESudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in the emergency department. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation by trained providers in a case of cardiac arrest has been proven to have survival benefit across the world. Many studies have been done regarding predictors of survival outcomes in SCA yet little data exists from India The objective of this study was to evaluate the related factors, outcome, and survival rate in patients with cardiac arrest who received Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) at the Emergency Medicine Department of a tertiary care centre in India. METHODSThis retrospective cohort study included all patients who were older than 15 years with sudden cardiac arrest and who were resuscitated in the emergency room between January 2014 and June 2014. STATA 11 analytical software was used to analyse factors that related to the sustained Return of Spontaneous Circulation (ROSC) and survival at discharge. RESULTSThere were 41 patients enrolled. The overall sustained ROSC rate was 56.1% and the survival rate at discharge was 14.63%. Statistically significant factor related to sustained ROSC was younger age of the patient. Those requiring a lesser duration of CPR were found to be more likely to survive. In out-of-hospital cardiac arrests, bystander initiated CPR was not documented in a single case. CONCLUSIONFactors associated with sustained ROSC were age of the patient and the duration of CPR. Recruitment of a larger sample size should continue so that more accurate findings are obtained. Basic Life Support training so that more bystanders initiate CPR at the site of an SCA is a pressing need in India
