Drug combo during CPR, stress-dose hydrocortisone in postresuscitation shock associated with neurologically favorable survival to discharge
Vasopressin-epinephrine and methylprednisolone during CPR and stress-dose hydrocortisone in postresuscitation shock were associated with better neurologically favorable survival to hospital discharge compared with epinephrine plus a saline placebo in patients in cardiac arrest who required vasopressors.

Early epinephrine in cardiac arrest with non-shockable rhythm associated with better survival
Earlier administration of epinephrine for inpatients with non-shockable cardiac arrest increases the chances that spontaneous circulation will return and the patients will survive to discharge, a new study found.

Nine factors associated with risk of cardiac arrest after STEMI in new analysis
In-hospital cardiac arrest occurred in 2.2% of patients hospitalized for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and was less likely in those who received beta-blockers, ticagrelor, or primary percutaneous coronary intervention, an observational Chinese study found.

Lower oxygen saturation target for ventilated patients didn't affect time on ventilation
An ED and ICU at one medical center tested oxygen saturation targets of 90%, 94%, and 98% in mechanically ventilated patients and found no difference in days free of ventilation or 28-day mortality.

New score predicts likelihood of good outcome after in-hospital CPR
Researchers have developed a simple score, useful in discussing do-not-resuscitate orders, which can identify patients who aren't likely to benefit from a resuscitation attempt if they experience in-hospital cardiac arrest.
