Playing Field

Resuscitation on the playing field is at least as important as screening in the prevention of death. Even if a screening strategy is largely effective, individuals will suffer sudden cardiac arrests. Timely recognition of a cardiac arrest with rapid implementation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and deployment and use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) will save lives. Basic life support, including CPR and AED use, should be a requirement for all those involved in sports, including athletes. An emergency action plan is important in order to render advanced cardiac life support and arrange for transport to medical centres.

This 2020 International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science With Treatment Recommendations for advanced life support includes updates on multiple advanced life support topics addressed with 3 different types of reviews. Topics were prioritized on the basis of both recent interest within the resuscitation community and the amount of new evidence available since any previous review. Systematic reviews addressed higher-priority topics, and included double-sequential defibrillation, intravenous versus intraosseous route for drug administration during cardiac arrest, point-of-care echocardiography for intra-arrest prognostication, cardiac arrest caused by pulmonary embolism, postresuscitation oxygenation and ventilation, prophylactic antibiotics after resuscitation, postresuscitation seizure prophylaxis and treatment, and neuroprognostication. New or updated treatment recommendations on these topics are presented. Scoping reviews were conducted for anticipatory charging and monitoring of physiological parameters during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Topics for which systematic reviews and new Consensuses on Science With Treatment Recommendations were completed since 2015 are also summarized here. All remaining topics reviewed were addressed with evidence updates to identify any new evidence and to help determine which topics should be the highest priority for systematic reviews in the next 1 to 2 years.

Hospital Cardiac Arrest

Objective Most western emergency medical services provide advanced life support in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest aiming for a return of spontaneous circulation at the scene. Little attention is given to prehospital time management in the case of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with regard to early coronary angiography or to the start of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation treatment within 60 minutes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest onset. We investigated the emergency medical services on-scene time, defined as emergency medical services arrival at the scene until departure to the hospital, and its association with 30-day survival with favourable neurological outcome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Methods All patients of over 18 years of age with non-traumatic, non-emergency medical services witnessed out-of-hospital cardiac arrest between July 2013 and August 2015 from the Vienna Cardiac Arrest Registry were included in this retrospective observational study. Results Out of 2149 out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients, a total of 1687 (79%) patients were eligible for analyses. These patients were stratified into groups according to the on-scene time (<35 minutes, 35–45 minutes, 45–60 minutes, >60 minutes). Within short on-scene time groups, out-of-hospital cardiac arrest occurred more often in public and bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation was more common (both P<0.001). Patients who did not achieve return of spontaneous circulation at the scene showed higher rates of 30-day survival with favourable neurological outcome with an on-scene time of less than 35 minutes (adjusted odds ratio 5.00, 95% confidence interval 1.39–17.96). Conclusion An emergency medical services on-scene time of less than 35 minutes was associated with higher rates of survival and favourable outcomes. It seems to be reasonable to develop time optimised advance life support protocols to minimise the on-scene time in view of further treatments such as early coronary angiography as part of post-resuscitation care or extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation in refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

Objetivo: desenvolver e validar um protótipo de baixo custo para reanimação cardiopulmonar em adultos, com ênfase nos fluxos arteriais e venosos para fins educacionais. Método: trata-se de estudo oriundo de trabalho de conclusão de curso, utilizando abordagem do design thinking para elaboração do protótipo, realizado em uma universidade pública federal no sul do Brasil, entre setembro e novembro de 2019. Na validação, participaram 13 indivíduos com expertise em Urgência e Emergência, sendo utilizado um instrumento com escala Likert, composto por sete itens sobre aparência e usabilidade. Resultados: o protótipo foi idealizado usando um manequim de exposição de roupas como estrutura principal. Além do tórax permitir compressões, uma rede de ductos que simulam os fluxos sanguíneos demonstrou visualmente a circulação sanguínea e a injeção de medicações intravenosas. Conclusão: o protótipo possui capacidade de potencializar o processo de ensino-aprendizagem em suporte básico e avançado de vida, especialmente quando sustentado por metodologias ativas.ABSTRACTObjective: to develop and validate a low-cost prototype for cardiopulmonary resuscitation in adults, with an emphasis on arterial and venous flows, for educational purposes. Method: this study, which originated from a course conclusion project to develop a prototype using the design-thinking approach, was conducted at a federal public university in southern Brazil between September and November 2019. Thirteen individuals with expertise in emergency care took part in validation, using a Likert scale instrument consisting of seven items on appearance and usability. Results: the prototype was designed using a clothing display mannequin as the main structure. Compressions could be performed on the chest, and a network of ducts simulated blood flows visually, demonstrating blood circulation and intravenous medication injections. Conclusion: the prototype was able to enhance teaching and learning on basic and advanced life support, especially when supported by active methodologies.RESUMENObjetivo: desarrollar y validar un prototipo de bajo costo para reanimación cardiopulmonar en adultos, con énfasis en los flujos arteriales y venosos, con fines educativos.
