what about in refractory cardiac arrest?
ERC - ESICM guidelines 2021
- timing of CAG if no evidence ofr ST segment evaluation.

which means we will end up treating a lot of patients with stent and anticoagulation
TOMAHAWK trial : delayed or early invasive angiography -- no effec.

#LIVES2022
- immediate catheterisation for non ST elevationrr
some OCT data show coronary atherothrombosis in cardiac arrest survivors without ST-segmenet elevatin on ECG.

SUMMARY
- immediate coronary angio should be proposed but can be delayed. post ROSC ECG is key - but if doing at admn, high risk of coronary disease pats benefit most

Carolyn Calfee Clinical and Biological phenotypes of ARDS
- what do they have in common?

ARDS : subgrouping since the begining
- sepsis vs. non sepsis
- hyper vs. hypoinflamm
- reactive vs uninflamed
#ventilation #ards #phenotypes #LIVES2022
Are clinical phenotypes biologically distinct?
looking at Trauma vs. Non trauma

ICAM-1 , SP-D, vWF, sTNFr-1 are different.
What about in "Direct" vs. "indirect"
or "Diffuse" vs "focal" -- sRAGE comes up again.

"Do we Need a biological definition of ARDS"

- Berlin definition has NO Diffuse alveolar damage .
- the Berlin defn does not capture well
Frohlich - different definitions specificity of 0.63, 0.42, 0.31 even!

In essence, different disease processes are happening to the lung at different times in the "ARDS"

ARDS - new definition or phenotypes by @GicoBellani refreshing with Kigali definition of ARDS - useful not just low resource but during pandemic in supposedly high income settings and only draw back is no PEEp requirement #ards #ventilation #LIVES2022 @ESICM
@GicoBellani @ESICM Resolved versus confirmed ARDS
- prospectively applying Berlin definition did work but if ya wait 24 hrs and re-measure P/F ratio, you end up stratifying much better.
- Better separation of groups

#ventilation #LIVES2022
@GicoBellani @ESICM Whichever definition - american european consensus or Berlin or Kigali -- all goes back to Ashbaugh original paper in 1967

Why are we so confused when it comes to ARDS definition ?

Next : Mypinder SEKHON on cardiac arrest in COVID-19 era.

Works in Vancouver
COVID 19 era cardiac arrest ARE a lot less sexy with all the PPE. #als #covid19 #resuscitation #LIVES2022
@ESICM
@ESICM Let's look at epidemiology. Northern Italy, Manhattan - COVID hit hard and has impact on other diseases.

e.g., OHCA in Italy during COVID 19 massive spike.

NEXT Speaker : VA ecmo for which patients?
Alain COMBES

Severe cardiogenic shock has different phenotypes
1. medical cardiogenic shock(AMI, end stage dilated CM, myocarditis, septic shock)
2. Post cardiotomy refractory CS (post CABG)
#LIVES2022
@ESICM #ecmo #resuscitation #ALS
@ESICM 2022 what do the guidelines say
- ESC recommends short term MCS should be considred in cardiogenic shock.
IABP may be considered but not routinely recommended in post MI

#LIVES2022
@ESICM #als #resuscitation
@ESICM 2020 ILCOR consensus : strong recommendation to use "ADRENALINE" in cardiac arrest, if you dont have it "LIDOCAINE".

Adrenaline to placebo comparison is mainly 1 older trial with latest PARAMEDIC 2

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30980877/
@ESICM PARAMEDIC 2 - big study
8007 pts, adrenaline 4000, placebo 3999
- a lot of discussion post trial
- need a nuanced interpretation.
- 19 "more good" survivors and 5 "more bad" survivors in adrenaline arm.
