The effect of cardiopulmonary bypass on platelet count and function was studied in 20 patients who underwent cardiac operation from April 1991 to August 1991 at the Department of thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, School of Medicine, Keimyung University. Ten patients were perfused with a bubble oxygenator, 10 with a membrane oxygenator. During and after bypass, platelet counts decreased in both groups and significantly reduced in those perfused with a bubble oxygenator. All 20 patients studied for platelet functions had an abnormal postoperative aggregation response to collagen and epinephrine, but no significant difference in both groups. One hour after bypass, bleeding times increased in both groups but did not differ significantly between groups. Postoperative 24 hour blood losses were significantly higher in patients perfused with a membrane oxygenator. Platelet damage and postoperative blood loss are less severe after cardiopulmonary bypass performed with a membrane oxygenator than with a bubble oxygenator.

Purpose : This study was to examine the knowledge and attitude about cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) for nursing students, and to basic data with CPR education program for nursing student. Method : 128 nursing students filled out a self-administered questionnaires. The data were collected by CPR knowledge and attitude modified by the authors based on Kim's inventory (2008). Result : Nursing students weren't knowledgeable nor confident of CPR. But they had positive attitude about as a first responder. Conclusion : Intensive education by the level of knowledge should be provided for nursing students to master the knowhow of CPR, especially cardiac compression, and evaluation should be reinforced as well. And an education should be offered to enhance their confidence CPR performing CPR.

Purpose : The purpose of the study is to investigate the knowledge, attitude, confidence, and experiences of community health practitioner(CHP) regarding cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR). Methods : The subjects were 333 CHP in G Province, C Province, and I Metropolitan City. A structured self-reported questionnaire was filled out by 209 participants from July 29, 2013 to September 30, 2013. Results : Confidence level toward CPR was intermediate, and knowledge and attitude level was very low. Seventeen participants performed CPR to cardiac arrest victim. Eleven patients among 25 patients had spontaneous recovery of circulation (ROSC). So the rate was very high. Conclusion : It is necessary to perform the efficient CPR in CHP. In order to improve the positive attitude and confidence in CHP, the renewal system must maintain every two years.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to identify factors influencing confidence in performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) of university students. Methods: Data were collected from 261 students recruited from 2 cities using a questionnaire covering confidence, knowledge and attitude in regard to CPR. Results: There was a significant positive correlation between confidence and knowledge (r=.37, p<.001), between attitude and confidence (r=.61, p<.001), and between knowledge and attitude (r=.61, p<.001). Confidence in performance increased as knowledge, attitude, grade, CPR training frequency and educational satisfaction increased. Conclusion: There is a need for CPR training programs that can improve practical training and educational satisfaction of university students.

A report of a 79 year old male patient suffering from acute myocardial infarction with Mallory-Weiss tear after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) by emergency medical technician in the swimming pool is presented. Successful percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) was done after appropriate transfusion. The patient survived and discharged without major complications after admitting 11days in the hospital. Importance of CPR in AMI patient is reiterated as complication such as Mallory-Weiss tear may arise.

As the number of passengers using aircraft increases around the world, there may be more medical measures needed within the aircraft. These medical measures may also include measures against serious situations such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). However, since the environment is different from the hospital in the aircraft, it may be difficult to cope with such a situation. Moreover, such in-flight CPR may become more difficult at a time when the proportion of out-ofhospital CPR is decreasing due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic. In this paper, I would like to summarize how in-flight CPR is performed and review the main discussions on CPR in the COVID-19 pandemic, and finally suggest how to perform a safe CPR in the COVID-19 situation.

배경: 체외순환은 심정지를 필요로 하는 모든 심장 수술에서 정지된 심장의 기능을 대신하여 환자의 말초 장기의 혈액순환을 유지하기 위한 필수적인 과정이다. 그러나 체외순환은 필연적으로 인공도관을 관류하는 특성상 신체의 혈관계를 흐르는 혈류와 달리 혈액손상에 따른 전신성 염증반응을 피할 수 없으며, 이러한 전신성 염증반응과 함께 말초혈관의 미세혈관 순환장애가 체외순환동안에 원발장기의 손상을 초래하는 것으로 생각된다. 저자들은 전신성 염증반응을 일으키는 주된 혈액성분인 백혈구를 제거한 충진액을 사용하여 전신성 염증반응을 줄일 수 있는가를 확인하고, 체외순환도중 위점막의 산도를 측정함으로써 위점막의 미세혈류에 대한 백혈구 제거 충진액의 효과를 확인하기 위하여 실험을 진행하였다. 대상 및 방법: 실험군은 15마리의 한국산 잡견을 충진액의 성분에 따라 비혈액성 충진액군, 백혈구 제거 혈액성 충진액군, 백혈구 비제거 혈액성 충진액군으로 각각 5마리씩 세 군으로 나누었다. 세 군 모두에서 2시간의 체외순환 및 연속된 4시간의 마취유지를 시행하였으며, 체외순환 전과 체외순환 후 1시간, 2시간, 체외순환 종료 후 2시간 4시간에 위점막 이산화탄소 농도와 산도, 동맥혈 이산화탄소 분압 과 호기말 이산화탄소 분압을 측정하고, 염증반응의 지표검사를 위하여 동맥혈을 채혈하였다. 전신성 염증반응의 정도는 채취한 동맥혈에서 ELISA (enzyme linked immunosorbent assay)법을 이용하여 IL-8의 수준을 검사하였다. 결과: 1, 위점막의 이산화탄소 농도는 백혈구 제거 혈액성 충진액군이 백혈구 비제거 혈액성 충진액군과 비혈액성 충진액군에 비하여 유의하게 낮았다(p=0.02, 0.01). 2. 위점막의 산도는 백혈구 제거 혈액성 충진액군과 백혈구 비제거 혈액성 충진액군간에 유의한 차이를 보였다(p=0.01). 3. 전신성 염증반응의 정도를 확인하기 위하여 측정한 IL-8의 수준은 백혈구 제거 혈액성 충진액군과 비혈액성 충진액군이 백혈구 비제거 혈액성 충진액군에 비하여 유의하게 낮았다(p=0.01, 0.01). 결론: 백혈구를 제거한 혈액성 충진액을 사용하는 것이 체외순환중 위점막의 미세순환 장애를 방지하고 전신성 염증반응을 감소시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Background: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (E-CPR) plays an indispensable role when resuscitation fails; however, extracorporeal life support (ECLS) in infants is different from that in adults. The objective of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of E-CPR in infants. Methods: A single-center retrospective study was conducted, analyzing 51 consecutive patients (age <1 year) who received E-CPR for in-hospital cardiac arrest between 2010 and 2021. Results: The median age and body weight was 51 days (interquartile range [IQR], 17-111 days) and 3.4 kg (IQR, 2.9-5.1 kg), respectively. The cause of arrest was cardiogenic in 45 patients (88.2%), and 48 patients (94.1%) had congenital cardiac anomalies. The median conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (C-CPR) time before the initiation of ECLS was 77 minutes (IQR, 61-103 minutes) and duration of ECLS was 7 days (IQR, 3-12 days). There were 36 in-hospital deaths (70.6%), and another patient survived after heart transplantation. In the multivariate analysis, single-ventricular physiology (odds ratio [OR], 5.05; p=0.048), open sternum status (OR, 8.69; p=0.013), and C-CPR time (OR, 1.47 per 10 minutes; p=0.021) were significant predictors of in-hospital mortality. In a receiver operating characteristic curve, the optimal cut-off of C-CPR time was 70.5 minutes. The subgroup with early E-CPR (C-CPR time <70.5 minutes) showed a tendency for lower in-hospital mortality tendency (54.5% vs. 82.8%, p=0.060), albeit not statistically significant. Conclusion: If resuscitation fails in an infant, E-CPR could be a life-saving option. It is crucial to improve C-CPR quality and shorten the time before ECLS initiation.

With the increasing performance of open heart surgery during recent years, the occurrence of renal failure associated with cardiopulmonary aypass has received considerable attention. This patient was 33 yaar old woman who undertaken mitral valve replacement under the cardiopulmonary bypass. Acute renal failure developed after 2nd postoperative day. So we report here the course of renal failure as it occur in immediate relation to open heart surgery and examine the role of preoperative, intraoperative and postoderative factors.
