Absence of systole; failure of the ventricles of the heart to contract (usually caused by ventricular fibrillation) with consequent absence of the heart beat leading to oxygen lack and eventually to death.
Background: Prolonged asystole is sometimes an extreme manifestation of neurally mediated syncope.
2
This scene also uses some very official sounding doctor words such as asystole.
3
Two patients are described with reproducible cardiac asystole post-exercise.
4
A patient whose heart was asystole, or a straight line on the graph, did not come back.
5
One thing that's inaccurate in this clip is that asystole can't actually be reversed with a shock.
1
Early reports said a man aged about 40 went into cardiacarrest.
2
Media reports had earlier said the 54-year-old had died of cardiacarrest.
3
But the most common underlying reason for cardiacarrest is heart disease.
4
Following cardiacarrest a lucid, organized, and conscious experience should be impossible.
5
The protocol included three successive episodes of cardiacarrest in each animal.
1
It's the type we see with cardiopulmonaryarrest, Dr Kanter told reporters.
2
If someone is struck, the most significant danger is cardiopulmonaryarrest.
3
One patient suffered a cardiopulmonaryarrest before thyroidectomy could be performed.
4
Background: In-hospital cardiopulmonaryarrest (CPA) accounts for substantial morbidity and mortality.
5
Her death certificate says she died of cardiopulmonaryarrest due to complications from a MRSA infection.
6
Cause of death was listed as cardiopulmonaryarrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint and neck compression.
7
His death certificate lists the cause of death as hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy caused by cardiopulmonaryarrest.
8
He subsequently went into cardiopulmonaryarrest.
9
Floyd suffered cardiopulmonaryarrest as he was restrained by the cop, according to the Hennepin County medical examiner's office.
10
He went into cardiopulmonaryarrest but was successfully treated by transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) with cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
11
Her death certificate lists cardiopulmonaryarrest as the immediate cause of death, due to complications from a MRSA infection.
12
Background: Compression pauses may be particularly harmful following the electrical recovery but prior to the mechanical recovery from cardiopulmonaryarrest.
13
Every case of cardiopulmonaryarrest and shock was related to intramucosal pH of less than 7.30.
14
Aim: In patients with cardiopulmonaryarrest, brain cooling may improve neurological outcome, especially if applied prior to or during early reperfusion.
15
The care for patients suffering from cardiopulmonaryarrest in a context of a COVID-19 pandemic has particularities that should be highlighted.
16
Background: Efforts to reduce preventable deaths in the in-hospital setting should target both cardiopulmonaryarrest (CPA) prevention and optimal resuscitation.
