摘要: The complete global brain ischemia of cardiac arrest (CA), potentially reversible by cardiopulmonary-cerebral resuscitation (CPCR) [1,2] is the most common cause sudden coma and death [1,3]. Sudden CA kills about 400,000 persons each year in U.S. In addition, over 100,000 accidental deaths year, occurs as a result trauma, intoxication, asphyxiation, severe shock, or other insults. This talk focused on CPCR research results our teams, mentioned only some important contributions made others, which have been reviewed [4, 5, 6, 7]. Epidemiologic studies suggest that chance for conscious survival normothermic CAdecreases 10% every minute (no-flow) [3].
