Should i call 911 when feeling faint with history of cardiac arrhythmia ?
healthtap.com — “There are a variety of causes for feeling lightheaded or faint, but having a medical history that includes cardiac arrhythmia makes certain causes more likely than others. If you do not have a cardiologist that you can contact, it is best to call 911 or visit the emergency room to be evaluated and determine the cause of your symptoms.” View full resource at healthtap.com

Circ: Adding patients’ two cents on stress testing may cut costs
cmio.net — “Low-risk patients presenting with chest pain at an emergency department were less likely to undergo stress testing if they used a tool designed to elucidate their risk of a heart attack and engage them in decision making, according to a study published online April 10 in Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes. No patients in the randomized evaluation experienced a major adverse cardiac event after discharge, suggesting the decision aid may help reduce unnecessary testing without compro” View full resource at cmio.net

Cardiac CT is faster, more effective for evaluating patients with suspected heart attack
medicalxpress.com — “Cardiac computed tomography angiography scans (CT scans that look at the heart) can provide a virtually instant verdict on whether chest pain is from blockage of the coronary arteries. When used early to evaluate chest pain, the scans save patients and hospitals time and money by allowing doctors to ...” View full resource at medicalxpress.com

AR: Cardiac CT slices ED costs for patients with chest pain
cardiovascularbusiness.com — “Cardiac CT (CCT) in the emergency department (ED) is more cost effective in evaluating patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome than the standard of care involving multiple tests and a stress SPECT scan, even when the downstream costs of CCT are considered, according to a study published in the March issue of Academic Radiology.” View full resource at cardiovascularbusiness.com

NIH launches trials to evaluate CPR and drugs after sudden cardiac arrest, January 26, 2012 News Release - National Institutes of Health (NIH)
nih.gov — “The National Institutes of Health has launched two multi-site clinical trials to evaluate treatments for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. One will compare continuous chest compressions (CCC) combined with pause- free rescue breathing to standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), which includes a combination of chest compressions and pauses for rescue breathing. The other trial will compare treatment with the drug amiodarone, another drug called lidocaine, or neither medication (a salt-water pl” View full resource at nih.gov
