A machine learning algorithm running on a smartwatch demonstrated the ability to detect sudden loss of pulse with high specificity (99.99%) and moderate sensitivity (67.23%), according to a study led ...

A smart-technology wearable wristband device may be able to automatically detect cardiac arrest, which could lead to faster medical assistance and increased survival odds when cardiac arrest occurs ...

In a population-based study, nearly 60% of US children receiving emergency medical services (EMS) care for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) experienced at least one severe adverse safety event ...

The odds on whether a child survives a cardiac arrest may depend on where they live, according to a new study from the University of Missouri School of Medicine. The odds on whether a child survives a ...

While sudden cardiac arrest in a child or adolescent is rare—about 20,000 cases occur each year in the U.S.—the survival rate when it happens outside of a hospital is estimated to be under 20%.

There are only scant studies of predicting outcomes of pediatric resuscitation due to lack of population-based data. This study aimed to determine variable factors that may impact the survival of ...
