Return of spontaneous circulation after cardiac arrest results in a systemic inflammatory
state called the post-cardiac arrest syndrome, which is characterized by oxidative stress …

Purpose We assessed the effects of targeting low-normal or high-normal arterial carbon
dioxide tension (PaCO 2) and normoxia or moderate hyperoxia after out-of-hospital cardiac …

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a life-saving technique for patients with
severe respiratory and cardiac diseases, is being increasingly utilized worldwide …

Objective To define the incidence of the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)
following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and characterize its impact on outcome …

Importance Clinical studies investigating the effects of hypercapnia and hypercapnic
acidosis in acute cerebral injury are limited. The studies performed so far have mainly …

Background We aimed to identify the association of pH value in blood gas assessment with
neurological outcome among out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients treated by …

Objectives: The manipulation of arterial carbon dioxide tension is associated with differential
mortality and neurologic injury in intensive care and cardiac arrest patients; however, few …

Sudden cardiac arrest affects more than 500,000 people in the United States each year.
Patients who achieve return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after cardiac arrest often …

Background: The hypothesis of this study is that latent class analysis could identify the
subphenotypes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients associated with the …

Serum levels of carbon dioxide (CO 2) closely regulate cerebral blood flow (CBF) and
actively participate in different aspects of brain physiology such as hemodynamics …
