Post-cardiac arrest care, emphasizing targeted temperature management, early coronary angiography, and rehabilitation, is crucial to improving the overall cardiac arrest survival rate of 15 to 22%.
This review summarizes the mechanisms and management of post-cardiac arrest syndrome, emphasizing targeted temperature management and early coronary angiography.
Cardiac arrest is an important public health issue, with a survival rate of approximately 15 to 22%. A great proportion of these deaths occur after resuscitation due to post-cardiac arrest syndrome, which is characterized by the ischemia-reperfusion injury that affects the role body. Understanding physiopathology is mandatory to discover new treatment strategies and obtain better results. Besides improvements in cardiopulmonary resuscitation maneuvers, the great increase in survival rates observed in recent decades is due to new approaches to post-cardiac arrest care. In this review, we will discuss physiopathology, etiologies, and post-resuscitation care, emphasizing targeted temperature management, early coronary angiography, and rehabilitation.
Lazzarin et al. (Thu,) conducted a review in Post-cardiac arrest syndrome. Post-resuscitation care was evaluated. Post-cardiac arrest care, emphasizing targeted temperature management, early coronary angiography, and rehabilitation, is crucial to improving the overall cardiac arrest survival rate of 15 to 22%.
