11(4):264-8.
PMID: 26510012
Background: In cases of in-hospital-witnessed ventricular fibrillation/ventricular tachycardia (VF/VT) arrest, it is unclear whether cardiopulmonary resuscitation prior to defibrillation attempt or expedited stacked defibrillation attempt is superior. Methods: Retrospective, observational...

J Hosp Med
. 2015 Mar;
10(6):352-7.
PMID: 25772392
Background: In-hospital cardiopulmonary arrest (CPA) accounts for substantial morbidity and mortality. Rapid response teams (RRTs) are designed to prevent non-intensive care unit (ICU) CPA through early detection and intervention. However,...

. 2015 Mar;
34(2):82-5.
PMID: 25733113
Objective: Oxygen desaturation occurs frequently in the course of prehospital rapid sequence intubation (RSI) and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Preoxygenation with positive pressure ventilation by bag valve...

Prehosp Emerg Care
. 2014 Oct;
19(2):328-35.
PMID: 25291381
Background: Inadvertent hyperventilation is associated with poor outcomes from traumatic brain injury (TBI). Hypocapnic cerebral vasoconstriction is well described and causes an immediate and profound decrease in cerebral perfusion. The...
