The Lazarus phenomenon described as delayed return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after cessation of CPR is rare, though underreported. We present the case of a 25-year-old woman who visited our hospital for persistent vomiting and weight loss for the last six months following bariatric surgery. On the 16th day of admission, the patient experien...

Purpose This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) directions by dispatchers. We analysed the relationship of dispatcher-assisted bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (DA-BCPR) with favourable cerebral function, shockable rhythm rate, and emergency medical service (EMS) arrival time. Methods This nation...

Objective: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a prominent cause of death worldwide. As indicated by the high proportion of COVID-19 suspicion or diagnosis among patients who had OHCA, this issue could have resulted in multiple fatalities from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) occurring at home and being counted as OHCA. Methods: We used the...

Background Cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are associated with activated coagulation and microvascular fibrin deposition with subsequent multiorgan failure and adverse outcome. Objectives Activated Factor XI-antithrombin (FXIa-AT) complex, activated Factor IX–antithrombin (FIXa-AT) complex and thrombin-antithrombin (TAT) com...

This article aimed to analyze, through a qualitative study (i.e., semi-structured interview), the opinions and knowledge of fourth-year future teachers at a Spanish public university (University of Granada) regarding training and the need for first aid (FA) at school. With a sample of 70 subjects in their last year of training, our conclusion is that although they are aware of the importance of first aid for their professional development, there is no such training in their careers, and thus they have great difficulty understanding how to react to emergency situations on the job.
