“…As the location of reported death was related to brain in 89%, unspecific intracranial hemorrhage caused death in 41% and traumatic intracranial hemorrhage caused death in 27%. Arnaout et al, in 2015 confirmed that presentation of cerebrovascular event may help to identify brain causes [13]. Christe et al, in 2010 mentioned that intracranial bleeding is hyperattenuating both in radiology and in postmortem imaging [14].…”

Introduction: In a recent study of 5360 deceased records′ within a local teaching hospital in Isfahan/Iran, neurological disorders′ ranked as the main cause of mortality among others. Additionally based on previous global reports, it seems that approximately 150000 individuals die within hospital every day. Therefore the current study aims to provide an atlas for the major causes of death correlated to neurologic disorders′ in a local hospital in Isfahan/Iran. Methods: A retrospective survey of 1036 deceased individuals due to neurologic disorders′ (comprised of n = 607 males and n = 429 females), was carried out from the years 2011 to 2014. The study was conducted to Isfahan Kidney Transplantation Research Center (IKTRC). Death reported data such as age, gender, final code of death, date of admission, and duration of hospital stay were noted in Excel. The statistical analyses of d-Base were performed using SPSS (version 20) for windows. Descriptive statistics such as mean, minimum, maximum was reported for variables of interest. Results: Out of total population studied 59% were males. Age related death in the 79% was between 31 to 96 years old of life. Location of disorders that caused death were ranked as brain (n = 89%) > both brain and spinal cord (n = 5%) > spinal cord (n = 4%). Ranked reasons of death due to brain disorders resulted as: unspecified intracranial hemorrhage (n = 283; 41%) > stroke (n = 224; 32%) > traumatic intracranial injuries (n = 186; 27%) and other reasons (n = 24%). With a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 162 days, the mean hospital stay in this group was 11.9 days. In the 52% of deceased population due to spinal cord injuries, age at death was under 15 years old of life. The average hospital stay within this group of deceased before death was 15.3 days with a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 74 days. There were 7 reported deaths due to multiple sclerosis at the minimum and maximum age of 22 and 66 years old. Conclusions:The evaluation based on clinical research maps from this study could help upcoming investigation for inserting the new strategy of the multi-dimensional difference of main reasons of death due to neurological disorders in Isfahan/Iran. Finally in order to achieve for improved clinical, pharmacological or surgical performance and management, or a more profitable founding of health incomes, further study in this direction recommended.

“…However, although cardiac causes of OHCA have been extensively studied in recent years, little is known regarding non-cardiac causes; therefore, the current 2015 guidelines point out that early identification of respiratory and neurological causes might be achieved by performing early computed tomography (CT) [5]. At present, only a few reported case series have demonstrated that early CT examination for victims of OHCA before or after coronary angiography enables the diagnosis of non-cardiac causes of arrest in a substantial proportion of patients [6,7]. The overall diagnostic value of early CT in victims of non-traumatic OHCA remains uncertain, and early CT may provide more therapy-relevant findings than only the cause of cardiac arrest.…”

Early computed tomography in victims of non-traumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest

Although early cranial and thoracic computed tomography (CT) is recommended in the early in-hospital treatment of victims of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), hardly anything is known regarding the proportions of therapy-relevant findings with this method. Victims of OHCA who were admitted to our hospital between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2014 were studied. CT was classified as early if performed within the first 4 h following hospital admission. There were 32 (12.7 %) cranial, 31 (12.3 %) thoracic and 15 (6.0 %) abdominal CT. The major findings and associated number of patients were: intracranial bleeding in two patients (0.8 %), acute cerebral ischemia in two (0.8 %), cerebral oedema in four (1.6 %), pulmonary emboli in three (1.2 %), hemothorax in two (0.8 %), tracheal rupture in one (0.4 %), pneumonia in 11 (4.4 %), paralytic ileus in one (0.4 %), ascites in three (1.2 %), pneumoperitoneum in one (0.4 %), acute cholecystitis in two (0.8 %), mesenteric vascular occlusion in one (0.4 %) and ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm in one (0.4 %). In victims of OHCA, early diagnostic CT provides therapy-relevant findings in a high proportion (42.3 %) of patients examined.

However, we believe that larger samples are required before reaching such an important conclusion.…”

Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest From Brain Cause

Abstract: Presentation of cerebrovascular event complicated with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest may mimic coronary etiology, but several clinical elements may help to identify brain causes. Even if survival is null, the high proportion of brain deaths provides opportunity for organ donation.
