Use of prehospital-induced hypothermia after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: a survey of the National Association of Emergency Medical Services PhysiciansBrian P Suffoletto
Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213, USA
Prehosp Emerg Care 12:52-6. 2008..We sought to determine the prevalence of EMS agencies that use prehospital IH. We also sought to determine what perceived barriers to initiating IH might exist and the understanding EMS physicians have of guidelines for IH...
Achalasia: a rare cause of stridorBrian Suffoletto
Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA
Intern Emerg Med 3:127-9. 2008
Ethyl pyruvate enhances intra-resuscitation hemodynamics in prolonged ventricular fibrillation arrestBrian P Suffoletto
University of Pittsburgh, Department of Emergency Medicine, 230 McKee Place, Suite 400, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, United States
Resuscitation 80:1411-6. 2009..We investigated the hemodynamic, metabolic and anti-inflammatory effects of Ringer's ethyl pyruvate solution (REPS) versus Ringer's solution (RS) in the acute model of prolonged porcine arrest...
Effects of pre-arrest and intra-arrest hypothermia on ventricular fibrillation and resuscitationJames J Menegazzi
Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA
Resuscitation 80:126-32. 2009..The electrophysiological mechanisms of hypothermia are not well-understood, nor are the effects of beginning cooling during the resuscitation...
Association of intramyocardial high energy phosphate concentrations with quantitative measures of the ventricular fibrillation electrocardiogram waveformDavid D Salcido
Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA 15216, USA
Resuscitation 80:946-50. 2009..We sought to investigate the relationship between intramyocardial energy stores and four quantitative ECG measures...
Effects of an impedance threshold device on hemodynamics and restoration of spontaneous circulation in prolonged porcine ventricular fibrillationJames J Menegazzi
Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA
Prehosp Emerg Care 11:179-85. 2007..An impedance threshold device (ITD) has been designed to enhance circulation during CPR by creating a negative intrathoracic pressure during the relaxation phase of chest compression...

Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15261, USA
Prehosp Emerg Care 16:564-70. 2012....
Diagnostic accuracy of a rapid checklist to identify delirium in older patients transported by EMSAdam Frisch
Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15261, USA
Prehosp Emerg Care 17:230-4. 2013..Early recognition of delirium in the prehospital setting has the potential to improve outcomes, but is not feasible without valid assessment tools...
