Insights

This bibliometric study analyzes 14,818 cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) articles from 1980-2020. Key research trends include out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and extracorporeal life support, offering insights for clinicians and scientists.

Area of Science:

  • Emergency Medicine
  • Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)
  • Bibliometrics

Background:

  • Growing global research in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
  • Lack of comprehensive bibliometric analysis on CPR literature.
  • Increasing importance of CPR in emergency medicine.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of CPR research.
  • To evaluate CPR publications from 1980 to 2020.
  • To identify global trends and key contributors in CPR research.

Main Methods:

  • Downloaded 21,623 publications on CPR from Web of Science (1980-2020).
  • Analyzed 14,818 articles using statistical methods.
  • Utilized network visualization for trending topics and nonlinear regression for future projections.

Main Results:

  • The United States led CPR publications (35.6%), followed by Germany and the UK.
  • Top institutions included University of Washington, University of Pittsburgh, and University of Arizona.
  • Resuscitation journal published the most articles (2822), followed by Critical Care Medicine and American Journal of Emergency Medicine.

Conclusions:

  • Identified key CPR research trends: out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, simulation, and extracorporeal life support.
  • Highlighted the significant contributions of the US, Germany, and UK to CPR literature.
  • This study provides a valuable resource for understanding global CPR outcomes and research trajectories.

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation I: Adult

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or CPR, is a life-saving emergency procedure performed when a person's heart has stopped beating or they are no longer breathing. The foundation of CPR is Basic Life Support (BLS), which focuses on the early recognition of cardiac arrest, the immediate start of high-quality chest compressions, and the timely use of an automated external defibrillator (AED).Assessing Responsiveness and Checking the Carotid PulseWhen approaching an unresponsive person, first ensure...

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation V: Advanced Airway Management Techniques

Airway management is essential in emergency and surgical medicine, ensuring ventilation and oxygenation in patients who cannot maintain their own airway. Clinicians use a range of techniques and devices to secure the airway, depending on the patient’s condition and the clinical context. Key methods include endotracheal intubation, rapid sequence intubation (RSI), supraglottic airway devices, and advanced visualization aids. In cases where these approaches fail, surgical airway...

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation IV: Pharmacological Management

Pharmacologic intervention is crucial in treating cardiac arrest patients during ACLS or Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support. The ACLS algorithms guide the administration of specific drugs based on the patient's cardiac arrest rhythm, which includes pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VT), ventricular fibrillation (VF), asystole, and pulseless electrical activity (PEA).EpinephrineIndication: Epinephrine is the first-line drug for all cardiac arrest rhythms.Mechanism of Action: Epinephrine...

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation III: AED Use

Introduction to AEDAn Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a portable medical device that analyzes the heart's rhythm and, if necessary, delivers an electrical shock to help the heart re-establish an effective rhythm during sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). SCA occurs when the heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops beating, leading to a loss of blood flow to the brain and other vital organs. In such emergencies, time is of the essence, and using an AED, combined with Cardiopulmonary...

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation II: ACLS Airway Management

Airway management is a key skill in emergency and critical care settings, as maintaining a clear airway is essential for adequate oxygenation and ventilation.Head Tilt-Chin Lift TechniqueThe head tilt-chin lift maneuver is an essential technique primarily used in patients without suspected cervical spine injuries. To perform this maneuver, one hand is placed on the patient’s forehead, and gentle pressure is applied backward to tilt the head. The fingertips of the other hand are positioned...

Pulmonary Embolism II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

Diagnosing Pulmonary EmbolismDiagnosing pulmonary embolism (PE) involves clinical assessment and advanced imaging tests. The preferred diagnostic tool is the spiral (helical) CT scan or CT angiography (CTA), which uses intravenous contrast media to visualize the pulmonary vasculature and identify emboli.A ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan is an alternative for patients unable to receive contrast media. This scan includes both perfusion and ventilation scanning. Perfusion scanning involves...
