Objective Experimental studies of head-up positioning (HUP) during cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR) have had some degree of conflicting published results. The current …

Syncope is a symptom in which transient loss of consciousness occurs as a consequence of
a self-limited, spontaneously terminating period of cerebral hypoperfusion. Many circulatory …

Background Survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains poor. A
physiologically distinct cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) strategy consisting of (1) active …

OBJECTIVES: Cardiac arrests remain a leading cause of death worldwide. Most patients
have nonshockable electrocardiographic presentations (asystole/pulseless electrical …

Aim of the study Controlled sequential elevation of the head and thorax (CSE) during active
compression decompression (ACD) cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) with an …

Objectives: Combined with devices that enhance venous return out of the brain and into the
thorax, preclinical outcomes are improved significantly using a synergistic bundled …

Background Recent studies have shown that during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
head-up position (HUP) as compared to standard supine position (SUP) decreases …

Aim Controlled sequential elevation of the head and thorax (CSE) during active
compression–decompression (ACD) CPR with an impedance threshold device (ITD) …

Abstract Objectives Resuscitation in the Head Up position improves outcomes in animals
treated with active compression decompression cardiopulmonary resuscitation and an …

Aim The objectives were: 1) replicate key elements of Head Up (HUP) cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR) physiology in a traditional swine model of ventricular fibrillation (VF), 2) …
