- Abstract
The International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation engages in a continuous review of new, peer-reviewed, published cardiopulmonary resuscitation and first aid science. Draft Consensus on Science With Treatment Recommendations are posted online throughout the year, and this annual summary provides more concise versions of the final Consensus on Science With Treatment Recommendations from all task forces for the year. Topics addressed by systematic reviews this year include resuscitation of cardiac arrest from drowning, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation for adults and children, calcium during cardiac arrest, double sequential defibrillation, neuroprognostication after cardiac arrest for adults and children, maintaining normal temperature after preterm birth, heart rate monitoring methods for diagnostics in neonates, detection of exhaled carbon dioxide in neonates, family presence during resuscitation of adults, and a stepwise approach to resuscitation skills training. Members from 6 International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation task forces have assessed, discussed, and debated the quality of the evidence, using Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation criteria, and their statements include consensus treatment recommendations. Insights into the deliberations of the task forces are provided in the Justification and Evidence-to-Decision Framework Highlights sections. In addition, the task forces list priority knowledge gaps for further research. Additional topics are addressed with scoping reviews and evidence updates. more...

- Abstract
This is the sixth annual summary of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science With Treatment Recommendations. This summary addresses the most recently published resuscitation evidence reviewed by International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation Task Force science experts. Topics covered by systematic reviews include cardiopulmonary resuscitation during transport; approach to resuscitation after drowning; passive ventilation; minimizing pauses during cardiopulmonary resuscitation; temperature management after cardiac arrest; use of diagnostic point-of-care ultrasound during cardiac arrest; use of vasopressin and corticosteroids during cardiac arrest; coronary angiography after cardiac arrest; public-access defibrillation devices for children; pediatric early warning systems; maintaining normal temperature immediately after birth; suctioning of amniotic fluid at birth; tactile stimulation for resuscitation immediately after birth; use of continuous positive airway pressure for respiratory distress at term birth; respiratory and heart rate monitoring in the delivery room; supraglottic airway use in neonates; prearrest prediction of in-hospital cardiac arrest mortality; basic life support training for likely rescuers of high-risk populations; effect of resuscitation team training; blended learning for life support training; training and recertification for resuscitation instructors; and recovery position for maintenance of breathing and prevention of cardiac arrest. Members from 6 task forces have assessed, discussed, and debated the quality of the evidence using Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation criteria and generated consensus treatment recommendations. Insights into the deliberations of the task forces are provided in the Justification and Evidence-to-Decision Framework Highlights sections, and priority knowledge gaps for futu more...

- Abstract
The International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation initiated a continuous review of new, peer-reviewed published cardiopulmonary resuscitation science. This is the fifth annual summary of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science With Treatment Recommendations; a more comprehensive review was done in 2020. This latest summary addresses the most recently published resuscitation evidence reviewed by International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation task force science experts. Topics covered by systematic reviews in this summary include resuscitation topics of video-based dispatch systems; head-up cardiopulmonary resuscitation; early coronary angiography after return of spontaneous circulation; cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the prone patient; cord management at birth for preterm and term infants; devices for administering positive-pressure ventilation at birth; family presence during neonatal resuscitation; self-directed, digitally based basic life support education and training in adults and children; coronavirus disease 2019 infection risk to rescuers from patients in cardiac arrest; and first aid topics, including cooling with water for thermal burns, oral rehydration for exertional dehydration, pediatric tourniquet use, and methods of tick removal. Members from 6 International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation task forces have assessed, discussed, and debated the quality of the evidence, according to the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation criteria, and their statements include consensus treatment recommendations or good practice statements. Insights into the deliberations of the task forces are provided in Justification and Evidence-to-Decision Framework Highlights sections. In addition, the task forces listed priority knowledge gaps for further research. more...

Drowning is a major global public health problem. Effective prevention of drowning requires programmes and policies that address known risk factors throughout the world. Surveillance, however, has been hampered by the lack of a uniform and internationally accepted definition that permits all relevant cases to be counted. To develop a new definition, an international consensus procedure was conducted. Experts in clinical medicine, injury epidemiology, prevention and rescue from all over the world participated in a series of "electronic" discussions and face-to-face workshops. The suitability of previous definitions and the major requirements of a new definition were intensely debated. The consensus was that the new definition should include both cases of fatal and nonfatal drowning. After considerable dialogue and debate, the following definition was adopted: "Drowning is the process of experiencing respiratory impairment from submersion/immersion in liquid." Drowning outcomes should be classified as: death, morbidity, and no morbidity. There was also consensus that the terms wet, dry, active, passive, silent, and secondary drowning should no longer be used. Thus a simple, comprehensive, and internationally accepted definition of drowning has been developed. Its use should support future activities in drowning surveillance worldwide, and lead to more reliable and comprehensive epidemiological information on this global, and frequently preventable, public health problem. more...

- Abstract
A fire disaster in a bar on New Year's Eve 2001 in Volendam, which led to 200 victims, resulted in active participation of regional hospitals, including the academic hospital of the Free University of Amsterdam. In the first hour, more than 100 members of personnel were mobilised in this hospital. Nine doctors and nurses worked as members of medical teams at the site of the disaster; the others triaged 16 patients in the emergency room and treated 13 patients in the intensive care unit. After 4.5 hours, the influx of victims stopped and accordingly the disaster plan was deactivated. During the subsequent days, debriefings were organised on request of the hospital staff and personnel involved. These concluded that specific adjustments to hospital procedures were needed, such as a total admission stop for a few days, to prevent mental burn-out of personnel and to maintain the standard quality of care. Hospital disaster plans do not usually have specific guidelines for the emotional preparation of personnel during and immediately after a disaster, nor do they include specific guidelines for the evaluation of its emotional impact in terms of the quality of care delivered. These elements should be incorporated into every disaster plan. more...

- Abstract
Objective: The identification of risk factors contributing to the development of pulmonary oedema, pneumonia and late mortality in submersion victims. Design: A retrospective study of 125 submersion victims. Setting: The medical intensive care unit in a university hospital. Methods: Baseline examination on admission consisted of history, physical examination, arterial blood gas analysis and a chest radiograph. Patients were then classified into four groups: class I, baseline examination negative; class II, baseline examination positive, but mechanical ventilation not needed on admission; class III, mechanical ventilation required on admission; class IV, patients suffering form cardiopulmonary arrest. All patients who were not succesfully resuscitated or who had expired with-in 24 h after admission were excluded for determination of the risk of pulmonary oedema and pneumonia. Results: Class I patients did not develop pulmonary complications; neither pulmonary oedema nor pneumonia occurred in this group. In the remaining classes the incidence of pulmonary oedema was 72% and that of pneumonia, 14.7%. Stepwise logistic regression showed that pulmonary oedema was related to the type of water (seawater, ditch water, swimming pool) victims were submerged in and to the neurological state both at the time of rescue and on admission. The development of pneumonia was related to the use of mechanical ventilation (the risk was 52%). Pneumonia was not related to neurological state at the time of rescue or on admission, to body temperature on admission, to the prohylactic administration of antibiotics or to the use of corticosteroids. Mortality was high in class IV patients, but low in all other patients. Early mortality was 18.4% while late mortality was 5.6%. Conclusions: There is no need to hospitalise submersion victims when there are no signs or symptoms of aspiration upon arrival in the emergency room. All other patients should be admitted to an intensive care unit. The risk of pneumonia is high when mechanical ventilation is necessary. Mortality is high in patients with circulatory arrest on admission, but low in all other patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...

- Abstract
Drowning is the third leading cause of death from unintentional injury worldwide, accounting for 7% of all injury-related deaths. The World Health Organization estimates that there are ≈236 000 deaths due to drowning worldwide each year. Significant efforts have focused on creating systems to prevent drowning, but an average of 4000 fatal and 8000 nonfatal drownings still occur annually in the United States-likely an underestimate. Drowning generally progresses from initial respiratory arrest due to submersion-related hypoxia to cardiac arrest; thus, it can be challenging to distinguish respiratory arrest from cardiac arrest because pulses are difficult to accurately palpate within the recommended 10-second window. Therefore, resuscitation from cardiac arrest attributable to this specific circumstance must focus on restoring breathing as much as it does circulation. Resuscitation from drowning may begin with in-water rescue breathing when safely provided by rescuers trained in the technique and should continue with chest compressions, in keeping with basic life support guidelines, once the drowned individual and the rescuer are in a safe environment (eg, dry land, a boat). This focused update incorporates systematic reviews from 2021 to 2023 performed by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation related to the resuscitation of drowning. These clinical guidelines are the product of a committee of experts representing the American Heart Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics. The writing group reviewed the recent International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation systematic reviews, including updated literature searches, prior guidelines related to resuscitation from cardiac arrest following drowning, and other drowning-related publications from the American Heart Association and American Academy of Pediatrics. The writing group used these reviews to update its recommendations aimed at resuscitation of cardiac arrest following drowning in adults and children. more...

- Abstract
Drowning is the third leading cause of death from unintentional injury worldwide, accounting for 7% of all injury-related deaths. In the United States, drowning is the leading cause of death in children 1 to 4 years of age and second leading cause of death due to unintentional injury in those aged 5 to 14 years. Drowning generally progresses from initial respiratory arrest due to submersion-related hypoxia to cardiac arrest; thus, it can be challenging to distinguish respiratory arrest from cardiac arrest because pulses are difficult to accurately palpate within the recommended 10-second window. Therefore, resuscitation from cardiac arrest due to this specific circumstance must focus on restoring breathing as much as it does circulation. Resuscitation from drowning may begin with in-water rescue breathing when safely provided by rescuers trained in the technique and should continue with chest compressions, in keeping with basic life support guidelines, once the drowned individual and the rescuer are in a safe environment (eg, dry land, boat).

- Abstract
The great 2015 Nepal earthquake of magnitude 7.6 killed about 9000 people. To better ensure a more coordinated disaster response, a Basic On-Site Disaster Medical Support (BOS-DMS) course was designed in 2017. This study evaluates the effectiveness of the BOS-DM course. The course was conducted twice and attended by 135 participants, of whom 113 (83.7%) answered pre-test and post-test based multiple-choice questions. Qualitative and quantitative feedback was provided by 94 participants (69.6%). Mean test scores for the participants increased from 4.24 ± 1.42 to 6.55 ± 2.16 ( p -value < 0.0001; paired t -test). More than 92.0% of participants felt that the course prepared healthcare workers to manage acute medical situations at a disaster site. Subject knowledge scores increased from 34.8% to 90.2%. A three-day BOS_DMS course has the potential to improve on-site disaster management knowledge. Our study noted that precise scheduling, making attendance compulsory, translating course materials into the local language, inclusion of disaster exercises and training local master trainers can enhance course effectiveness. more...

Fernández-Méndez M, Barcala-Furelos R, Otero-Agra M, and Bierens J
- Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the feasibility of a new resuscitation strategy in which breaths are provided during automated external defibrillator (AED) rhythm analysis, and to evaluate its impact on chest compressions (CC) quality and the peri -analysis time., Method: A randomized simulation study, comparing two cardiopulmonary resuscitations strategies, has been conducted: the standard strategy (S1) with strategy involving ventilation during AED analysis (S2). Thirty lifeguards have performed both strategies in a cross-over study design during 10 min of CPR., Results: The number of ventilations per 10 min increases from 47 (S1) to 72 (S2) ( p < 0.001). This results in the delivery of an additional 17.1 L of insufflated air in S2 compared to S1 ( p < 0.001). There have been no significant changes in frequency and total number of CC. These findings correspond to a reduction of the non-ventilation period from 176 s (S1) to 48 s (S2)., Conclusions: This simulation study suggests that it is feasible to increase the number of ventilations during resuscitation following drowning, without affecting the quantity and quality of chest compressions. The results of this study may serve as a foundation for further investigation into optimal ventilation strategies in this context., Competing Interests: The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (© 2024 The Authors.) more...

40. Mobile Medical Teams are Often Over-Qualified.

- Abstract
Background and Importance: Emergency department (ED) staff in Belgium is simultaneously involved in patient care in the ED and in prehospital interventions as part of a Mobile Medical Team (MMT) or a Paramedic Intervention Team (PIT). There is a growing concern that the MMT is often over-qualified for the prehospital interventions they are dispatched to, while their absence from the ED results in insufficient human resources there., Objective: The current study aims to investigate whether this perception is correct in the EDs of two different regions, while also examining the differences between a two-tiered (2T) and a three-tiered (3T) Emergency Medical Services (EMS) region., Methods: A specially developed and pre-tested registration form was completed by physicians and nurses before and after each MMT intervention. The form included information on the composition of the MMT, the perceived need for MMT intervention pre-departure from the ED, the subjective appreciation of the need for the MMT after an intervention, and the therapeutic intervention(s) performed, in order to obtain a more objective appreciation of the actual need for an MMT. Data from a 2T and a 3T region were analyzed to rate the appropriateness of the interventions., Results: Although the 2T and 3T regions showed differences regarding MMT composition, dispatching, and logistics, the outcome of the study was identical in both regions. Before the intervention, physicians and nurses estimated that the MMT intervention would not be necessary in 37.7% of cases. However, following the intervention, it was subjectively deemed unnecessary in 65.7% of cases. Based on therapeutic interventions performed, the MMT was viewed as being over-qualified for carrying these out in 85.6% of cases. Post-intervention, the initial prediction that the MMT was over-qualified for the call was confirmed by the same physicians and nurses in 87.6% of cases, whilst their prediction was correct in 92.8% of cases in terms of the intervention that was carried out., Conclusion: In two different Belgian regions, the MMT is over-qualified in a vast majority of interventions. Physicians and nurses within the MMT can generally already predict that the MMT is over-qualified when leaving the ED. These findings suggest that there may be significant opportunities to improve the efficacy of human resources in the ED once there are less interventions carried out by an over-qualified MMT. more...

- Abstract
Objectives: The International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation, in collaboration with drowning researchers from around the world, aimed to review the evidence addressing seven key resuscitation interventions: 1) immediate versus delayed resuscitation; (2) compression first versus ventilation first strategy; (3) compression-only CPR versus standard CPR (compressions and ventilations); (4) ventilation with and without equipment; (5) oxygen administration prior to hospital arrival; (6) automated external defibrillation first versus cardiopulmonary resuscitation first strategy; (7) public access defibrillation programmes., Methods: The review included studies relating to adults and children who had sustained a cardiac arrest following drowning with control groups and reported patient outcomes. Searches were run from database inception through to April 2023. The following databases were searched Ovid MEDLINE, Pre-Medline, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Risk of bias was assessed using the ROBINS-I tool and the certainty of evidence was assessed using Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation. The findings are reported as a narrative synthesis., Results: Three studies were included for two of the seven interventions (2,451 patients). No randomised controlled trials were identified. A retrospective observational study reported in-water resuscitation with rescue breaths improved patient outcomes compared to delayed resuscitation on land ( n = 46 patients, very low certainty of evidence). The two observational studies ( n = 2,405 patients), comparing compression-only with standard resuscitation, reported no difference for most outcomes. A statistically higher rate of survival to hospital discharge was reported for the standard resuscitation group in one of these studies (29.7% versus 18.1%, adjusted odds ratio 1.54 (95% confidence interval 1.01-2.36) (very low certainty of evidence)., Conclusion: The key finding of this systematic review is the paucity of evidence, with control groups, to inform treatment guidelines for resuscitation in drowning., Competing Interests: The authors declare the following financial interests/personal relationships which may be considered as potential competing interests: This systematic review was part of the ILCOR continuous evidence evaluation process, which is guided by a rigorous conflict of interest policy (see www.ilcor.org). GDP declares roles as co-chair of ILCOR, Director of Science and Research for the European Resuscitation Council, Vice President of the Resuscitation Council UK and Editor roles with Resuscitation and Resuscitation Plus journals.

- Abstract
Introduction: Incompleteness of fatal drowning statistics is a familiar problem impeding public health measures. Part of the problem may be that only data on accidental drowning are used and not the full potential of accessible data., Methods: This study combines cause-of-death certificates and public prosecutor's court documents between 1998 and 2017 to obtain an aggregated profile. Data are also used as a basis for a trend analysis., Results: The dataset includes 5571 drowned persons (1.69 per 100,000). The highest risk group are persons above the age of 50. Demographic differences are observed between suicide by drowning, accidental drowning, and drowning due to transportation (0.72, 0.64, 0.28 per 100.000) and between native Dutch, and Dutch with western and non-western background (1.46, 1.43, 1.76 per 100.000). Non-residents account for another 12.2%. When comparing the periods 1998-2007 with 2008-2017, the Standard Mortality declines for suicide drowning and accidental drowning among persons with a native Dutch and non-western background. Single regression analysis confirms a decrease of drowning over the full period, breakpoint analysis shows an increase in the incidence of the total number of drowning, suicide by drowning and accidental drowning starting in 2007, 2008 resp. 2012., Discussion: Compared to the formal number of fatal accidental drowning in the Netherlands (n = 1718; incidence 0.52 per 100,000), the study identifies 350% more drowning. Differences in demographic data and the recent increase needs to be explored for public health interventions., (© 2022. The Author(s).) more...

- Abstract
Importance: Resuscitation is a niche example of how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected society in the long term. Those trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) face the dilemma that attempting to save a life may result in their own harm. This is most of all a problem for drowning, where hypoxia is the cause of cardiac arrest and ventilation is the essential first step in reversing the situation., Objective: To develop recommendations for water rescue organizations in providing their rescuers with safe drowning resuscitation procedures during the COVID-19 pandemic., Evidence Review: Two consecutive modified Delphi procedures involving 56 participants from 17 countries with expertise in drowning prevention research, resuscitation, and programming were performed from March 28, 2020, to March 29, 2021. In parallel, PubMed and Google Scholar were searched to identify new emerging evidence relevant to each core element, acknowledge previous studies relevant in the new context, and identify knowledge gaps., Findings: Seven core elements, each with their own specific recommendations, were identified in the initial consensus procedure and were grouped into 4 categories: (1) prevention and mitigation of the risks of becoming infected, (2) resuscitation of drowned persons during the COVID-19 pandemic, (3) organizational responsibilities, and (4) organizations unable to meet the recommended guidelines. The common measures of infection risk mitigation, personal protective equipment, and vaccination are the base of the recommendations. Measures to increase drowning prevention efforts reduce the root cause of the dilemma. Additional infection risk mitigation measures include screening all people entering aquatic facilities, defining criteria for futile resuscitation, and avoiding contact with drowned persons by rescuers with a high-risk profile. Ventilation techniques must balance required skill level, oxygen delivery, infection risk, and costs of equipment and training. Bag-mask ventilation with a high-efficiency particulate air filter by 2 trained rescuers is advised. Major implications for the methods, facilities, and environment of CPR training have been identified, including nonpractical skills to avoid being infected or to infect others. Most of all, the organization is responsible for informing their members about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and taking measures that maximize rescuer safety. Research is urgently needed to better understand, develop, and implement strategies to reduce infection transmission during drowning resuscitation., Conclusions and Relevance: This consensus document provides an overview of recommendations for water rescue organizations to improve the safety of their rescuers during the COVID-19 pandemic and balances the competing interests between a potentially lifesaving intervention and risk to the rescuer. The consensus-based recommendations can also serve as an example for other volunteer organizations and altruistic laypeople who may provide resuscitation. more...

- Abstract
Background: Identification of predictors of outcome at the scene of drowning events could guide prevention, care and resource utilization. This review aimed to describe where, what and how scene predictive factors have been evaluated in drowning outcome studies., Methods: We reviewed studies reporting scene drowning predictors published between 2003 and 2019. Data extraction included study populations, data sources, predictor factors (victim, incident, rescue, resuscitation and hospital-related), outcome measures and type of analyses., Results: Of 49 studies, 87.6% were from high-income countries, 57.1% used data from only one source (92.9% of these from either hospital or EMS), 73.5% included cases who received medical care and 53.1% defined outcomes as survival or death. A total of 78 different factors were studied; the most commonly studied group of factors described victim demographics, included in 42 studies (85.7%), followed by resuscitation factors, included in 30 studies (61.2%). Few studies described rescue (6.1%). The most frequent statistically significant single predictors of outcome known at the scene were submersion duration (evaluated in 19, predictor in 14) and age (evaluated in 31, predictor in 16). Only 38.7% of studies employed multivariable methods., Conclusions: Gaps to be addressed in drowning outcomes research include data from low- and middle-income countries, standardized definition of factors to allow evaluation across studies, inclusive study populations that can be generalized beyond those receiving medical care, study rescue and resuscitation factors, use of more meaningful outcomes (survival with good neurologic status) and advanced analyses to identify which factors are true predictors versus confounding variables., (Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Inc.

- Abstract
Background and Objectives: Blood is a critical resource for responding to mass casualty incidents (MCI). The main framework for transfusion preparedness is the American Association of Blood Bank (AABB) Disaster Operation Handbook. A disaster preparedness plan for co-ordinated blood supply was issued in Italy in 2016., Aim: To assess the level of preparedness of the Transfusion Centers (TS) in the Piedmont region, to evaluate the applicability of AABB checklist and to evaluate the application of the Italian plan., Materials and Methods: We surveyed all the Regional Transfusion Centers (TS) using the AABB checklist, addressing 74 priority action items grouped according to 16 preparedness domains. The Italian 2016 plan has been considered the regulatory cut-off and hospitals were stratified based on the type and the TS workload. A principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted to summarize the variance among centres., Results: Twenty-one out of 25 TS agreed to participate. Eighty-one % were at high and 18% were at medium level of preparedness. All but two centres were above the cut-off determined by the Italian law. A significant better preparedness was found in medium size hospitals compared to bigger and smaller hospitals. Other than that, the different TS showed a quite homogeneous distribution of preparedness variance., Conclusions: This study demonstrated a good level of preparedness in the Piemonte TS, above the Italian law requirements in the majority of TS. The AABB checklist could be used to highlight gaps and needs in the regional TS networks in case of emergency crisis., (© 2019 International Society of Blood Transfusion.) more...

- Abstract
INTRODUCTION In January 2011 landslides and floods followed heavy rain in the Mountainous Region of Rio de Janeiro State ("Região Serrana"), in southeastern Brazil. These events led to the largest disaster registered in Brazilian recent history. Few studies addressed the impacts of this disaster on public health, and we found none addressing the impact on mental health. This study reviewed the consequences of the 2011 disaster in the "Região Serrana", by comparing the demand for public mental health assistance data from time periods before and after the even METHODS We performed an ecologic study, analysing the aggregate data from "Região Serrana" during the period two years before and after the disaster, exporting data from the Brazilian open access public health database. The primary outcome was defined as Mental Health Care Demand, and for that we calculated the number of mental health care visits per month, the proportion of visits due to mental health care and the monthly absolute number of mental health care visits per CAPS - "Centro de Atenção Psicossocial" (Psychosocial Care Centre).
