“ Use of ultrasound imaging during advanced life support”
Rani Robson (Editorial). Resuscitation 81:1453-1454, 2010.
Use of US to detect and treat reversible causes during CPR Sir,
We agree with Dr. Sloth and colleagues that ultrasound (including cardiac
echocardiography) can have a useful role for identifying and treating reversible causes
of cardiac arrest. The use of ultrasound is already recommended in the current
guidelines to help treatment of cardiac arrest in certain ‘special’ circumstances.
Soar J, Nolan JP (Letter). Resuscitation doi: 10.1016/j.resuscitation.2007.03.005
Echocardiography during CPR: more studies needed
Echocardiography during ALS is a promising advance in resuscitation care.
However, further studies are needed to help clarify the true value and praticality of
ecochardiography in cardiac arrest patients.
Its use during CPR appears to be useful in expert hands.
Blaivas M., Fox JC. Academic Emergency Medicine 8:616–621, 2001
L’ECOGRAFIA NELL’ARRESTO CARDIACO
“Cardiac contractile activity visualized on bedside US may be used as prognostic factor in cardiac arrest”
Immediate subxiphoid or parasternal cardiac ultrasound examination by EP
plus brief repeat US examination during the CPR when pulses were checked.
Cardiac standstill on US resulted in a positive predictive value of 100% for
death in the ED, with a negative predictive value of 58%.
It may be an additional marker for cessation of resuscitative efforts.
169 out-of-hospital pts with cardiac arrest:
65/169 had asystole, 38/169 had PEA and 66/169 had VF.
136/169 without wall motion on US: no survived
33/169 with wall motion on US: 20/33 survived.

“Cardiac contractile activity visualized on bedside US may be used as prognostic factor in cardiac arrest after trauma”
The pericardial view of the FAST can differentiate between patients with and
without organized cardiac activity and may assist in the decision to terminate
ongoing resuscitation.
Bedside US may identify those patients with potential for survival.
28 pts presenting to a trauma center who had PEA:
12/28 patients had contractile cardiac activity on US;
3/12 survived, with tension pneumothorax, tension hemothorax, and
hypovolemia.

“It may not be an additional marker for cessation of resuscitative efforts.
Lack of cardiac motion on single10 sec evaluation alone is not a reliable
indication to stop CRP (NPV of 97% for predicting ROSC) .
On the other hand, vigorous cardiac motion is a powerful reason to
continue CRP (PPV of 55% for predicting ROSC).
ECoCG verification of a pseudo-PEA state enabled additional treatment
and cessation of chest compressions. It is associated to high rate of
ROSC (15/16 = 94%).
Initial lack of cardiac motion in 18/20 patients: it returned in 4/18, of
whom 2 survived.

DIAGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC IMPACT
Methods: developed an algorythm to obtain an EcoCG within 5 sec pause of CPR with Subcostal long axis 4chamber view, alternatively with Parasternal short and/or long axis or Apical 4 chamber view
Results:
Accuracy: 19/30 cases: pseudo-PEA. Detected cardiac wall movement (3 pericardial tamponade, 14 poor ventricolar function, 2 hypovolemia): 13/19 survived.
11/30 cases: true PEA, with true cardiac standstill:
all died.
Therapy: FEER based changes in 24/30 cases.
