Welcome to Code
Communications, ZOLL's online
newsletter for hospital clinicians interested in the field of
resuscitation. Each month we will explore a new topic in the field
with an emphasis on practical solutions for changing practice and
improving outcomes.
Visit the new Code Communications home page, where we will be announcing the results of our monthly surveys, the winner of our montly contests, and where you can read past issues of the newsletter.
In these next two issues of Code Communications we will learn about the recent New England Journal of Medicine article on delayed defibrillation in the hospital and its effect on patient survival. Part I will review the public's response to the study, explore what we know about the science of ventricular fibrillation and defibrillation, and give a brief overview of hospital arrests in general from the National Registry of CPR database. Next month I will describe factors that influence the success of defibrillation and end with ideas on how we can change care and technology to improve time to defibrillation. Read more...
