A failed attempt to improve quality of out-of-hospital CPR through performance evaluationTheresa Mariero Olasveengen
Institute for Experimental Medical Research, Ulleval University Hospital, Oslo, Norway
Prehosp Emerg Care 11:427-33. 2007..Our hypothesis was that providing CPR performance evaluation (CPR-PE) to three ambulance services would facilitate local education and implementation of CPR guidelines and, consequently, improve CPR quality...
Outcome when adrenaline (epinephrine) was actually given vs. not given - post hoc analysis of a randomized clinical trialTheresa M Olasveengen
Department of Anaesthesiology and Institute for Experimental Medical Research, Oslo University Hospital, PB 4956 Nydalen, N 0424 Oslo, Norway
Resuscitation 83:327-32. 2012..The present post hoc analysis on the RCT data compares outcomes for patients actually receiving adrenaline to those not receiving adrenaline...
Intravenous drug administration during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: a randomized trialTheresa M Olasveengen

Out-of hospital advanced life support with or without a physician: effects on quality of CPR and outcomeTheresa M Olasveengen
Institute for Experimental Medical Research, Department of Anesthesiology, Oslo University Hospital, Ullevaal, Oslo, Norway
Resuscitation 80:1248-52. 2009..The presence of physicians is believed to facilitate optimal management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, but has not been sufficiently documented...
Acute ischemic heart disease alters ventricular fibrillation waveform characteristics in out-of hospital cardiac arrestTheresa M Olasveengen
Institute for Experimental Medical Research and Department of Anaesthesiology, Ulleval University Hospital, N 0407 Oslo, Norway
Resuscitation 80:412-7. 2009..We wanted to confirm these recent animal data in humans and explore the possibility for such characteristics to identify acute ischemia during cardiac arrest...
Effect of implementation of new resuscitation guidelines on quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation and survivalTheresa M Olasveengen
Institute for Experimental Medical Research and Department of Anaesthesiology, Ulleval University Hospital, University of Oslo, N 0407 Oslo, Norway
Resuscitation 80:407-11. 2009..We have evaluated if quality of CPR performed by the Oslo Emergency Medical System (EMS) improved after implementation of the modified 2005 CPR Guidelines, and if any such improvement would result in increased survival...
Progressing from initial non-shockable rhythms to a shockable rhythm is associated with improved outcome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrestTheresa M Olasveengen
Institute for Experimental Medical Research, Ulleval University Hospital, N 0407 Oslo, Norway
Resuscitation 80:24-9. 2009..We wanted to confirm this observation in our prospectively collected database, and assess whether differences in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) quality could help to explain any such difference in outcome...
Standard basic life support vs. continuous chest compressions only in out-of-hospital cardiac arrestT M Olasveengen
Department of Anaesthesiology, and Institute for Experimental Medical Research, Ulleval University Hospital, Oslo, Norway
Acta Anaesthesiol Scand 52:914-9. 2008..Standard basic life support (S-BLS) is not documented to be superior to continuous chest compressions (CCC)...

Institute for Experimental Medical Research, Ulleval University Hospital, University of Oslo, N 0407 Oslo, Norway
Resuscitation 75:260-6. 2007..To evaluate the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) performed by a physician-manned ambulance, and assess whether it changed with time influenced by developing scientific evidence and guideline changes...
Transthoracic impedance changes as a tool to detect malpositioned tracheal tubesJo Kramer-Johansen
Institute for Experimental Medical Research, Ulleval University Hospital, N 0407 Oslo, Norway
Resuscitation 76:11-6. 2008..We wanted to test the ability of impedance changes as measured across the chest via the standard defibrillation pads to distinguish between oesophageal and tracheal ventilations in non-circulated patients...
Misplaced and dislodged endotracheal tubes may be detected by the defibrillator during cardiopulmonary resuscitationM Pytte
Institute for Experimental Medical Research, Ulleval University Hospital, Oslo, Norway
Acta Anaesthesiol Scand 51:770-2. 2007..Continuous monitoring of transthoracic impedance provided by the defibrillator during cardiopulmonary resuscitation may contribute to the early detection of an initially misplaced or later dislodged endotracheal tube...
Using within-patient correlation to improve the accuracy of shock outcome prediction for cardiac arrestKenneth Gundersen
Department of Electrical and Computing Engineering, University of Stavanger, Stavanger, Norway
Resuscitation 78:46-51. 2008..The accuracy of such methods determines how useful it is clinically and for retrospective analysis...
Dynamics and state transitions during resuscitation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrestEirik Skogvoll
Unit for Applied Clinical Research, Faculty of Medicine, Norwegian University of Science and Technology NTNU, Norway
Resuscitation 78:30-7. 2008..g. PEA-->ASY) or by intervention (e.g. VF-->ASY after DC shock); temporary ROSC may also occur. To gain insight into the dynamics of this process, we analyzed the state transitions over time using real-life data...
