European Resuscitation Academy

European Resuscitation Academy It takes a system to save a life. In partnership with the Resuscitation Academy Seattle King County. Why is this? There are answers.

Back­ground
Sur­vival from out-of-hospital ven­tric­u­lar fib­ril­la­tion car­diac arrest is extremely vari­able through­out Europe with high sur­vival rates of more than 50% and low survival rates with single digit percentages. Even more fun­da­men­tal is the fact that only very few com­mu­ni­ties in Europe have rig­or­ously mea­sured and reported their sur­vival rates. Most com­mu­ni­ties have n

o idea how they are per­form­ing in terms of man­ag­ing sud­den car­diac arrest. As proven in several communities within Europe, like Stavanger/Norway, Canton Ticino/Switzerland, Helsinki/Finland, etc. man­agers and direc­tors of EMS sys­tems can learn the steps they need to take to improve survival. The Mis­sion
The goal of the European Resus­ci­ta­tion Acad­emy is to improve sur­vival from cardiac arrest. This will be achieved through the enroll­ment of EMS man­agers, EMS direc­tors and EMS med­ical direc­tors, in a pro­gram con­ducted by the European Resuscitation Academy and the local host community. Spe­cific Goals:
- Learn how to define the car­diac arrest sur­vival rate in the host community.
- Under­stand the prin­ci­ples of the Utstein tem­plate and how to report data.
- Develop a con­crete plan of action to improve survival.
- Mea­sure the effect of the plan of action on car­diac arrest survival.

Hard to watch... significant need for improvement!

It is time e.g. for FIFA, UEFA and all other sport associations to do their homework.

"Investigators reviewed 29 available videos from 1990-2017...the rescue process of each collapsed player was analyzed with careful attention paid to the first action performed by the first to arrive on the scene...65% showed actions to prevent tongue swallowing, which included placing the player on his side or tilting his head sideways, and forcefully opening the athlete's mouth placing the rescuer's fingers in the victim's mouth, sometimes with a visible pull at the tongue. Only 38% show chest compressions. Further, a defibrillator was brought to the scene in only two cases, and in one of those, the first shock was not delivered until 10 minutes later. Of the players presenting with cardiac arrest, 36% survived."

New research presented in HeartRhythm, suggests that the main obstacle to an appropriate bystander response during athletes' cardiac arrest could be an apparently widespread myth: that 'tongue swallowing' is a common complication of sudden loss of consciousness that must be avoided or relieved at al...

The aim of is to preserve human life by making high-quality resuscitation available to all.

We are really proud of what happened yesterday: and brought back to life a young football player in front of the world.

From tomorrow, we must continue to work to ensure that what happened yesterday will no longer be an isolated event but normality all over Europe.

Good recovery to Christian Eriksen 💪

Adrenaline in cardiac arrest is dead, what next?

Does adrenaline require resuscitation or is adrenaline good for resuscitation? Gavin Perkins takes us through the research and findings.

"The health and economic burden of SCAs is high, predominantly underpinned by very high mortality. Annual national losses approach AUD$2 billion (USD$1.42 billion) and are comparable to productivity losses from all cancers combined. Prioritising research and state-of-the-art care for SCA patients appears economically sound."

There are 20,000 sudden cardiac arrests (SCAs) in Australia annually, with 90% case-fatality.

Congratulations to Save A Life For Scotland for their great achievements!

Over the past 5 years, we have doubled survival in Scotland after Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest. Where will we be 5 years from now? Learn about our partnership and aims here: https://www.gov.scot/isbn/9781800047624

Conclusions
During the COVID-19 pandemic in Switzerland mortality increased in Cantons with high-incidence of infection, whilst not in the low-incidence ones. OHCA occurrence followed an opposite trend showing how variables related to the health-system and EMS organization deeply influence OHCA occurrence during a pandemic.

Many countries reported an increase of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) and mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, all these data ref…
