Abstract
Aim Current guidelines for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) recommend a one-size-fits-all approach in relation to the positioning of chest compressions. We recently developed RescueDoppler, a hands-free Doppler ultrasound device for continuous monitoring of carotid blood flow velocity during CPR. The aim of the present study is to investigate whether RescueDoppler via real-time hemodynamic feedback, could identify both optimal and suboptimal compression positions. Methods In this model of animal cardiac arrest, we induced ventricular fibrillation in five domestic pigs. Manual chest compressions were performed for ten seconds at three different positions on the sternum in random order and repeated six times. We analysed Time Average Velocity (TAV) with chest compression position as a fixed effect and animal, position, and sequential time within animals as random effects. Furthermore, we compared TAV to invasive blood pressure from the contralateral carotid artery. Results We were able to detect changes in TAV when altering positions. The positions with the highest (range 19 to 48 cm/s) and lowest (6-25 cm/s) TAV were identified in all animals, with corresponding peak pressure 50-81 mmHg, and 46-64 mmHg, respectively. Blood flow velocity was, on average, highest at the middle position (TAV 33 cm/s), but with significant variability between animals (SD 2.8) and positions within the same animal (SD 9.3). Conclusion RescueDoppler detected TAV changes during CPR with alternating chest compression positions, identifying the position yielding maximal TAV. Future clinical studies should investigate if RescueDoppler can be used as a real-time hemodynamical feedback device to guide compression position.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brain injury is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest. Mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to brain injury following cardiac arrest; therefore, therapies that limit mitochondrial dysfunction have the potential to improve neurological outcomes. Generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during ischemia-reperfusion injury in the brain is a critical component of mitochondrial injury and is dependent on hyperactivation of mitochondria following resuscitation. Our previous studies have provided evidence that modulating mitochondrial function with specific near-infrared light (NIR) wavelengths can reduce post-ischemic mitochondrial hyperactivity, thereby reducing brain injury during reperfusion in multiple small animal models. METHODS Isolated porcine brain cytochrome c oxidase (COX) was used to investigate the mechanism of NIR-induced mitochondrial modulation. Cultured primary neurons from mice expressing mitoQC were utilized to explore the mitochondrial mechanisms related to protection with NIR following ischemia-reperfusion. Anesthetized pigs were used to optimize the delivery of NIR to the brain by measuring the penetration depth of NIR to deep brain structures and tissue heating. Finally, a model of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with CPR in adult pigs was used to evaluate the translational potential of NIR as a noninvasive therapeutic approach to protect the brain after resuscitation. RESULTS Molecular evaluation of enzyme activity during NIR irradiation demonstrated COX function was reduced in an intensity-dependent manner with a threshold of enzyme inhibition leading to a moderate reduction in activity without complete inhibition. Mechanistic interrogation in neurons demonstrated that mitochondrial swelling and upregulation of mitophagy were reduced with NIR treatment. NIR therapy in large animals is feasible, as NIR penetrates deep into the brain without substantial tissue heating. In a translational porcine model of CA/CPR, transcranial NIR treatment for two hours at the onset of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) demonstrated significantly improved neurological deficit scores and reduced histologic evidence of brain injury after resuscitation from cardiac arrest. CONCLUSIONS NIR modulates mitochondrial function which improves mitochondrial dynamics and quality control following ischemia/reperfusion. Noninvasive modulation of mitochondria, achieved by transcranial treatment of the brain with NIR, mitigates post-cardiac arrest brain injury and improves neurologic functional outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine whether ultra-low tidal volume ventilation (ULTVV) applied during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) compared with standard ventilation (intermittent positive pressure ventilation, IPPV) can reduce pulmonary end-organ damage in the post-resuscitation period. METHODS A prospective, randomized trial was conducted using a porcine model (n = 45). The animals were divided into three groups: IPPV, ULTVV, and a sham control group. Juvenile male pigs underwent CPR after inducing ventricular fibrillation and received the designated ventilation intervention [IPPV: tidal volume 6-8 ml per kilogram body weight (ml/kg BW), respiratory rate 10/min, FiO2 1.0; ULTVV: tidal volume 2-3 ml/kg BW, respiratory rate 50/min, FiO2 1.0]. A 20-h observation period followed if return of spontaneous circulation was achieved. Histopathological examination using the diffuse alveolar damage scoring system was performed on postmortem lung tissue samples. Arterial and venous blood gas analyses and ventilation/perfusion measurements via multiple inert gas elimination technique (MIGET) were repeatedly recorded during the experiment. RESULTS Out of the 45 experiments conducted, 28 animals were excluded based on predefined criteria. Histopathological analysis showed no significant differences in lung damage between the ULTVV and IPPV groups. ULTVV demonstrated adequate oxygenation and decarboxylation. MIGET measurements during and after resuscitation revealed no significant differences between the intervention groups. CONCLUSION In the short-term follow-up phase, ULTVV demonstrated similar histopathological changes and functional pulmonary parameters compared to standard ventilation. Further research is needed to investigate the long-term effects and clinical implications of ULTVV in resuscitation settings.

Abstract
Hypoxia-induced neuroinflammation after cardiac arrest has been shown to be mitigated by different ventilation methods. In this prospective randomized animal trial, 35 landrace pigs were randomly divided into four groups: intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV), synchronized ventilation 20 mbar (SV 20 mbar), chest compression synchronized ventilation 40 mbar (CCSV 40 mbar) and a control group (Sham). After inducing ventricular fibrillation, basic life support (BLS) and advanced life support (ALS) were performed, followed by post-resuscitation monitoring. After 6 hours, the animals were euthanized, and direct postmortem brain tissue samples were taken from the hippocampus (HC) and cortex (Cor) for molecular biological investigation of cytokine mRNA levels of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα). The data analysis showed that CCSV 40 mbar displayed low TNFα mRNA-levels, especially in the HC, while the highest TNFα mRNA-levels were detected in SV 20 mbar. The results indicate that chest compression synchronized ventilation may have a potential positive impact on the cytokine expression levels post-resuscitation. Further studies are needed to derive potential therapeutic algorithms from these findings.

Abstract
Background Despite the high prevalence of neurological complications and mortality associated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), neurologically-focused animal models are scarce. Our objective is to review current ECPR models investigating neurological outcomes and identify key elements for a recommended model. Methods We searched PubMed and four other engines for animal ECPR studies examining neurological outcomes. Inclusion criteria were: animals experiencing cardiac arrest, ECPR/ECMO interventions, comparisons of short versus long cardiac arrest times, and neurological outcomes. Results Among 20 identified ECPR animal studies (n = 442), 13 pigs, 4 dogs, and 3 rats were used. Only 10% (2/20) included both sexes. Significant heterogeneity was observed in experimental protocols. 90% (18/20) employed peripheral VA-ECMO cannulation and 55% (11/20) were survival models (median survival = 168 hours; ECMO duration = 60 minutes). Ventricular fibrillation (18/20, 90%) was the most common method for inducing cardiac arrest with a median duration of 15 minutes (IQR = 6-20). In two studies, cardiac arrests exceeding 15 minutes led to considerable mortality and neurological impairment. Among seven studies utilizing neuromonitoring tools, only four employed multimodal devices to evaluate cerebral blood flow using Transcranial Doppler ultrasound and near-infrared spectroscopy, brain tissue oxygenation, and intracranial pressure. None examined cerebral autoregulation or neurovascular coupling. Conclusions The substantial heterogeneity in ECPR preclinical model protocols leads to limited reproducibility and multiple challenges. The recommended model includes large animals with both sexes, standardized pre-operative protocols, a cardiac arrest time between 10-15 minutes, use of multimodal methods to evaluate neurological outcomes, and the ability to survive animals after conducting experiments.

Abstract
The optimal ventilation strategy during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) has eluded scientists for years. This porcine study aims to validate the hypothesis that ultra-low tidal volume ventilation (tidal volume 2–3 mL kg−1; ULTVV) minimizes renal and hepatic end-organ damage when compared to standard intermittent positive pressure ventilation (tidal volume 8–10 mL kg−1; IPPV) during CPR. After induced ventricular fibrillation, the animals were ventilated using an established CPR protocol. Upon return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), the follow-up was 20 h. After sacrifice, kidney and liver samples were harvested and analyzed histopathologically using an Endothelial, Glomerular, Tubular, and Interstitial (EGTI) scoring system for the kidney and a newly developed scoring system for the liver. Of 69 animals, 5 in the IPPV group and 6 in the ULTVV group achieved sustained ROSC and were enlisted, while 4 served as the sham group. Creatinine clearance was significantly lower in the IPPV-group than in the sham group (p < 0.001). The total EGTI score was significantly higher for ULTVV than for the sham group (p = 0.038). Aminotransferase levels and liver score showed no significant difference between the intervention groups. ULTVV may be advantageous when compared to standard ventilation during CPR in the short-term ROSC follow-up period.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Perfusion pressure and chest compression quality are generally considered key determinants of brain oxygenation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the impact of oxygen administration is less clear. We compared ventilation with 100% and 50% oxygen during ineffective manual chest compressions and hypothesized that 100% oxygen would improve brain oxygenation. METHODS Ventricular fibrillation (VF) was induced electrically in anaesthetized pigs and left untreated for 5 minutes, followed by randomization to ineffective manual CPR with ventilation of 50% or 100% oxygen. The first defibrillation was performed 10 minutes after induction of VF, and CPR continued with mechanical chest compressions (LUCAS2™) and defibrillation every 2 minutes until 36 minutes or return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Brain oxygenation was measured with near-infrared spectroscopy (rSO2) and invasive brain tissue oxygen (PbtO2) with a probe (NEUROVENT-PTO, RAUMEDIC) inserted into frontal brain tissue. Cerebral oxygenation was compared between groups with Mann-Whitney U tests and linear mixed models. RESULTS Twenty-eight pigs were included in the study: 14 subjects in each group. During ineffective chest compressions relative PbtO2 was higher in the group ventilated with 100% compared to 50% oxygen (5.2 mmHg [1.4-20.5] vs 2.2 [0.8-6.8], p = 0.001), but there was no difference in rSO2 (22% [16-28] vs 18 [15-25], p = 0.090). The use of 50% or 100% oxygen showed no difference in relative PbtO2 (p = 1.00) and rSO2 (p = 0.206) during mechanical CPR. CONCLUSIONS The use of 100% compared to 50% oxygen during ineffective manual CPR improved brain oxygenation measured invasively in brain tissue, but there was no difference in rSO2.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the most common causes of death in humans in highly developed countries. Among its most frequent complications affecting the patient’s prognosis are cardiac arrhythmias: ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF).
Material and Methods
The study aimed to characterise arrhythmias in 19 pigs subjected to experimentally induced MI obtained by occlusion of the proximal left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery using an angioplasty balloon. The anaesthetic protocol was modified to reduce mortality by including procedures stabilising haemodynamic disorders which develop during episodes of ischaemia and arrhythmia. During 30 min of experimentally induced ischaemia, the heart rhythm was recorded using a 12-lead ECG. The time, frequency, and type of arrhythmias were analysed.
Results
Ventricular arrhythmias were found in 94.74% of the treated pigs. The most common were ventricular premature complexes, reported in 88.89% of pigs with arrhythmia. Ventricular tachycardia was recorded in 66.67% and ventricular fibrillation in 50% of pigs with arrhythmias.
Conclusion
Myocardial infarction due to proximal LAD occlusion is characterised by a high incidence of ventricular arrhythmias, especially VT and VF. Because of the high survival rate, this MI porcine model may serve as a model for research on acute ischaemic ventricular arrhythmias in humans. Additionally, it reduces the total number of animals required for testing while yielding meaningful results, which is in line with the 3R principle.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prehospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation has commonly been considered ineffective in traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest because traditional chest compressions do not produce substantial cardiac output. However, recent evidence suggests that chest compressions located over the left ventricle (LV) produce greater hemodynamics when compared to traditional compressions. We hypothesized that chest compressions located directly over the LV would result in an increase in return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and hemodynamic variables, when compared to traditional chest compressions, in a swine model of traumatic pulseless electrical activity (PEA). METHODS Transthoracic echocardiography was used to mark the location of the aortic root (traditional compressions) and the center of the LV on animals (n = 34) that were randomized to receive chest compressions in one of the two locations. Animals were hemorrhaged to mean arterial pressure <20 to simulate traumatic PEA. After 5 minutes of PEA, basic life support (BLS) with mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation was initiated and performed for 10 minutes followed by advanced life support for an additional 10 minutes. Hemodynamic variables were averaged over the final 2 minutes of BLS and advanced life support periods. RESULTS Six of the LV group (35%) achieved ROSC compared to eight of the traditional group (47%) (P = .73). There was an increase in aortic systolic blood pressure (P < .01), right atrial systolic blood pressure (P < .01), and right atrial diastolic blood pressure (P = .02) at the end of BLS in the LV group compared to the traditional group. CONCLUSIONS In our swine model of traumatic PEA, chest compressions performed directly over the LV improved blood pressures during BLS but not ROSC.

Abstract
We aimed to evaluate correlation and agreement between noninvasive brain temperature (TBN) and invasive brain temperature (TBI) measurement during targeted temperature management (TTM) in a swine cardiac arrest model. Defibrillation attempts were provided after 5 minutes of ventricular fibrillation and 12 minutes of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in five pigs. After return of spontaneous circulation, TTM was provided with induction and maintenance phases with a target temperature of 33°C for 6 hours and a rewarming phase with a rewarming rate of 1°C/h for 4 hours. TBN and TBI were measured using a double sensor method and an intracranial catheter, respectively. Pulmonary artery temperature (TP), esophageal temperature (TE), and rectal temperature (TR) were measured. Primary outcomes were correlation and agreement between TBN and TBI and secondary outcomes were correlation and agreement among TBN and other temperatures. The Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) between TBN and TBI was 0.95 (p < 0.001) during the whole TTM phases. PCCs between TBN and TBI during the induction, maintenance, and rewarming phases were 0.91 (p < 0.001), 0.88 (p < 0.001), and 0.94 (p < 0.001) and 95% limits of agreement (LoAs) between TBN and TBI were (-0.27°C to 0.78°C), (-0.18°C to 0.54°C), and (-0.93°C to 0.88°C), respectively. Correlation between TBN and TBI during the maintenance phase was higher than correlation between TBN and TE (PCC = 0.74, p < 0.001) or TP (PCC = 0.81, p < 0.001). The 95% LoAs were narrowest between TBN and TP in the induction phase (-0.58 to 0.11), between TBN and TBI in the maintenance phase (-0.54 to 0.18), and between TBN and TR in the rewarming phase (-0.96 to 0.84). Noninvasive brain temperature showed good correlation with invasive brain temperature during TTM in a swine cardiac arrest model. Correlation was highest during the rewarming phase and lowest during the maintenance phase. Agreement between the two measurements was not clinically acceptable.

Abstract
Background Anoxic brain injuries represent the main determinant of poor outcome after cardiac arrest (CA). Large animal models have been described to investigate new treatments during CA and post‐resuscitation phase, but a detailed model that includes extensive neuromonitoring is lacking. Method Before an electrically‐induced 10‐minute CA and resuscitation, 46 adult pigs underwent neurosurgery for placement of a multifunctional probe (intracranial pressure or ICP, tissue oxygen tension or PbtO2 and cerebral temperature) and a bolt‐based technique for the placement and securing of a regional blood flow probe and two sEEG electrodes; two modified cerebral microdialysis (CMD) probes were also inserted in the frontal lobes and accidental misplacement was prevented using a perforated head support. Result 42 animals underwent the CA procedure and 41 achieved the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). In 4 cases (8.6%) an adverse event took place during preparation, but only in two cases (4.3%) this was related to the neurosurgery. In 6 animals (13.3%) the minor complications that occurred resolved after probe repositioning. Conclusion Herein we provide a detailed comprehensive neuromonitoring approach in a large animal model of CA that might help future research.

Abstract
Adrenaline is recommended for cardiac arrest resuscitation, but its effectiveness has been questioned recently. Achieving return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) is essential and is obtained by increasing coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) after adrenaline injection. A threshold as high as 35 mmHg of CPP may be necessary to obtain ROSC, but increasing doses of adrenaline might be harmful to the brain. Our study aimed to compare the increase in CPP with reduced doses of adrenaline to the recommended 1 mg dose in a pig model of cardiac arrest. Fifteen domestic pigs were randomized into three groups according to the adrenaline doses: 1 mg, 0.5 mg, or 0.25 mg administered every 5 min. Cardiac arrest was induced by ventricular fibrillation; after 5 min of no-flow, mechanical chest compression was resumed. The Wilcoxon test and Kruskal-Wallis exact test were used for the comparison of groups. Fisher's exact test was used to compare categorical variables. CPP, EtCO2 level, cerebral, and tissue near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) were measured. CPP was significantly lower in the 0.25 mg group 90 s after the first adrenaline injection: 28.9 (21.2; 35.4) vs. 53.8 (37.8; 58.2) in the 1 mg group (p = 0.008), while there was no significant difference with 0.5 mg 39.6 (32.7; 52.5) (p = 0.056). Overall, 0.25 mg did not achieve the threshold of 35 mmHg. EtCO2 levels were higher at T12 and T14 in the 0.5 mg than in the standard group: 32 (23; 35) vs. 19 (16; 26) and 26 (20; 34) vs. 19 (12; 22) (p < 0.05). Cerebral and tissue NIRS did not show a significant difference between the three groups. CPP after 0.5 mg boluses of adrenaline was not significantly different from the recommended 1 mg in our model of cardiac arrest.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heparin, a commonly used anticoagulant, has been found to improve cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIR-CA) following cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Here, we aimed to explore the role of pleiotrophin (PTN)/syndecan-3 pathway in heparin therapy for CIR-CA. MATERIALS AND METHODS The CA-CPR model was constructed in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, which were treated with low molecular weight heparin, and the neurological changes and brain histopathological changes were evaluated. For in-vitro experiments, the ischemic injury model of primary neurons was established by oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD), and the neuron regeneration was detected via the Cell counting Kit-8 (CCK8) method, flow cytometry and microscopy. CREB antagonist (KG-501), ERK antagonist (PD98059) and si-PTN were used respectively to inhibit the expression of CREB, ERK and PTN in cells, so as to explore the role of heparin in regulating neuronal regeneration. RESULTS Compared with the sham rats, the neurological deficits and cerebral edema of CA-CPR rats were significantly improved after heparin treatment. Heparin also attenuated OGD-mediated neuronal apoptosis and promoted neurite outgrowth in vitro. Moreover, heparin attenuated CA-CPR-mediated neuronal apoptosis and microglial neuroinflammation. In terms of the mechanism, heparin upregulated the expression of ERK, CREB, NF200, BDNF, NGF, PTN and syndecan-3 in the rat brains. Inhibition of ERK, CREB and interference with PTN expression notably weakened the heparin-mediated neuroprotective effects and restrained the expression of ERK/CREB and PTN/syndecan-3 pathway. CONCLUSION Heparin attenuates the secondary brain injury induced by CA-CPR through regulating the ERK/CREB-mediated PTN/syndecan-3 pathway.

Abstract
Background Compressions given during cardiopulmonary resuscitation generate small, ineffective passive ventilations through oscillating waves. Positive end-expiratory pressure increases the volume of these passive ventilations; however, its effect on passive ventilation is unknown. Our objective was to determine if increasing positive end-expiratory pressure during cardiopulmonary resuscitation increases passive ventilation generated by compressions to a clinically significant point. This study was conducted on 13 Landrace-Yorkshire pigs. After inducing cardiac arrest with bupivacaine, cardiopulmonary resuscitation was performed with a LUCAS 3.1. During cardiopulmonary resuscitation, pigs were ventilated at a positive end-expiratory pressure of 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 cmH2O (randomly determined) for 9 min. Using the NM3 respiratory monitoring device, expired minute ventilation and volumetric capnography were measured. Arterial blood gas was obtained for each positive end-expiratory pressure level to compare the effects of positive end-expiratory pressure on carbon dioxide. Results Increasing positive end-expiratory pressure from 0 to 20 cmH2O increased the mean (SEM) expired minute ventilation from 6.33 (0.04) to 7.33 (0.04) mL/min. With the 5-cmH2O incremental increases in positive end-expiratory pressure from 0 to 20 cmH2O, volumetric capnography increased from a mean (SEM) of 94.19 (0.78) to 115.18 (0.8) mL/min, except for 15 cmH2O, which showed greater carbon dioxide exhalation with volumetric capnography compared with 20 cmH2O. PCO2 declined significantly as positive end-expiratory pressure was increased from 0 to 20 cmH2O. Conclusions When increasing positive end-expiratory pressure from 0 to 20, the contribution to overall ventilation from gas oscillations generated by the compressions became more significant, and may even lead to hypocapnia, especially when using positive end-expiratory pressures between 15 and 20.

Abstract
Central venous and arterial access through minimally invasive techniques has been described in adult pigs. This article demonstrates success in juvenile animals. Using ultrasound guidance and the modified Seldinger technique, 5 Fr/15 cm single-lumen central venous catheters and 20 Ga 4.5 cm femoral arterial catheters were placed in six Yorkshire cross-bred swine. All six cases had no loss of venous catheter patency or infection during the 96-hour follow-up period. Arterial catheters remained patent, and no significant bleeding was noted after removal.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) reportedly elevates arterial blood pressure (ABP) during non-traumatic cardiac arrest. OBJECTIVES This randomized, blinded trial of cardiac arrest in pigs evaluated the effect of automated REBOA two minutes after balloon inflation on ABP (primary endpoint) as well as arterial blood gas values and markers of cerebral haemodynamics and metabolism. METHODS Twenty anesthetized pigs were randomized to REBOA inflation or sham-inflation (n = 10 in each group) followed by insertion of invasive monitoring and a novel, automated REBOA catheter (NEURESCUE® Catheter & NEURESCUE® Assistant). Cardiac arrest was induced by ventricular pacing. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was initiated three min after cardiac arrest, and the automated REBOA was inflated or sham-inflated (blinded to the investigators) five min after cardiac arrest. RESULTS In the inflation compared to the sham group, mean ABP above the REBOA balloon after inflation was higher (inflation: 54 (95%CI: 43-65) mmHg; sham: 44 (33-55) mmHg; P = 0.06), and diastolic ABP was higher (inflation: 38 (29-47) mmHg; sham: 26 (20-33) mmHg; P = 0.02), and the arterial to jugular oxygen content difference was lower (P = 0.04). After return of spontaneous circulation, mean ABP (inflation: 111 (95%CI: 94-128) mmHg; sham: 94 (95%CI: 65-123) mmHg; P = 0.04), diastolic ABP (inflation: 95 (95%CI: 78-113) mmHg; sham: 78 (95%CI: 50-105) mmHg; P = 0.02), CPP (P = 0.01), and brain tissue oxygen tension (inflation: 315 (95%CI: 139-491)% of baseline; sham: 204 (95%CI: 75-333)%; P = 0.04) were higher in the inflation compared to the sham group. CONCLUSION Inflation of REBOA in a porcine model of non-traumatic cardiac arrest improves central diastolic arterial pressure as a surrogate marker of coronary artery pressure, and cerebral perfusion.

Abstract
Cardiac arrest (CA) is a leading cause of death and there is a necessity for animal models that accurately represent human injury severity. We evaluated a rat model of severe CA injury by comparing plasma metabolic alterations to human patients. Plasma was obtained from adult human control and CA patients post-resuscitation, and from male Sprague–Dawley rats at baseline and after 20 min CA followed by 30 min cardiopulmonary bypass resuscitation. An untargeted metabolomics evaluation using UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS was performed for plasma metabolome comparison. Here we show the metabolic commonality between humans and our severe injury rat model, highlighting significant metabolic dysfunction as seen by similar alterations in (1) TCA cycle metabolites, (2) tryptophan and kynurenic acid metabolites, and (3) acylcarnitine, fatty acid, and phospholipid metabolites. With substantial interspecies metabolic similarity in post-resuscitation plasma, our long duration CA rat model metabolically replicates human disease and is a suitable model for translational CA research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent evidence demonstrates that closed chest compressions directly over the left ventricle (LV) in a traumatic cardiac arrest (TCA) model improve hemodynamics and return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) when compared to traditional compressions. Selective aortic arch perfusion (SAAP) also improves hemodynamics and controls hemorrhage in TCA. We hypothesized that chest compressions located over the LV would result in improved hemodynamics and ROSC in a swine model of TCA using SAAP. MATERIALS AND METHODS Transthoracic echo was used to mark the location of the aortic root (Traditional location) and the center of the LV on animals (n = 24), which were randomized to receive chest compressions in one of the two locations. After hemorrhage, ventricular fibrillation (VF) was induced to simulate TCA. After a period of 10 min of VF, basic life support (BLS) with mechanical CPR was initiated and performed for 10 min, followed by advanced life support (ALS) for an additional 10 min. SAAP balloons were inflated at min 6 of BLS. Hemodynamic variables were averaged over the final 2 min of the BLS and ALS periods. Survival was compared between this SAAP cohort and a control group without SAAP (No-SAAP) (n = 26). RESULTS There was no significant difference in ROSC between the two SAAP groups (P = 0.67). There was no ROSC difference between SAAP and No-SAAP (P = 0.74). CONCLUSIONS There was no difference in ROSC between LV and Traditional compressions when SAAP was used in this swine model of TCA. SAAP did not confer a survival benefit compared to historical controls.

Abstract
Background Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is used to optimize oxygenation by preventing alveolar collapse. However, PEEP can potentially decrease cardiac output through cardiopulmonary interactions. The effect of PEEP on cardiac output during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is not known. Methods This was a preclinical randomized, controlled, animal study conducted in an animal research facility on 25 Landrace-Yorkshire pigs. After inducing cardiac arrest, CPR was performed with LUCAS 3. During CPR, pigs were ventilated at a PEEP of 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 cmH2O (randomly determined via lottery) for 9 min. Cardiac output, obtained via ultrasound dilution, and PaO2 were measured, and oxygen delivery calculated for each PEEP. Results A mixed-effects repeated-measures analysis of variance was used to compare the baseline value adjusted mean cardiac output, PaO2, and oxygen delivery between PEEP groups. Least significant difference test was used to conduct pairwise comparisons between PEEP groups. To determine optimum PEEP, Gaussian mixture model was applied to the adjusted means of cardiac output and oxygen delivery. Increasing PEEP to 10 and higher resulted in significant declines in cardiac output. A PEEP of 15 and higher resulted in significant declines in oxygen delivery. As PEEP was increased from 0 to 20, PaO2 increased significantly. Gaussian mixture model identified the 0–5 PEEP group as providing optimal cardiac output and oxygen delivery, with PEEP of 5 providing the highest oxygen delivery. Conclusions A PEEP of 0–5 resulted in the optimal oxygen delivery and cardiac output during CPR, with PEEP of 5 resulting in higher oxygen delivery, and a slightly lower, statistically insignificant cardiac output than PEEP of 0.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest remains poor. Levosimendan could be a new intervention in this setting. Therefore, we conducted a blinded, placebo controlled randomized study investigating the effects of levosimendan on survival and cardiac performance in an ischemic cardiac arrest model in swine. METHODS Twenty-four anesthetised swines underwent experimentally-induced acute myocardial infarction and ventricular fibrillation. At the start of CPR, a bolus dose of levosimendan (12 μg kg-1) or placebo was given followed by a 24-h infusion (0.2 μg kg-1 min-1) after return of spontaneously circulation. Animals were evaluated by risk of death, post-resuscitation hemodynamics and infarction size by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) up to 32 h post arrest. RESULTS Spontaneous circulation was restored in all (12/12) animals in the levosimendan group compared to two thirds (8/12) in the placebo group (P = 0.09). Protocol survival was higher for the levosimendan group (P = 0.02) with an estimated 88% lower risk of death compared to placebo (hazard ratio [95% confidence interval] 0.12 [0.01-0.96], P = 0.046). Cardiac output (CO) recovered 40% faster during the first hour of the intensive care period for the levosimendan group (difference 0.13 [0.01-0.26] L min-1P = 0.04). The placebo group required higher inotropic support during the intensive care period which masked an even bigger recovery in CO in the levosimendan group (58%). The MRI showed no difference in myocardial scar size or in myocardial area at risk. CONCLUSIONS Levosimendan given intra-arrest and during the first 24-h of post-resuscitation care improved survival and cardiac performance in this ischemic cardiac arrest model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate whether 33% duty cycle increases end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) level, a surrogate measurement for cardiac output during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), compared with 50% duty cycle. METHODS Six pigs were randomly assigned to the DC33 or DC50 group. After 3 min of induced ventricular fibrillation (VF), CPR was performed for 5 min with 33% duty cycle (DC33 group) or with 50% duty cycle (DC50 group) (phase I). Defibrillation was delivered until return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) thereafter. After 30 min of stabilization, the animals were re-assigned to the opposite groups. VF was induced again, and CPR was performed (phase II). The primary outcome was ETCO2 during CPR, and the secondary outcomes were coronary perfusion pressure (CPP), systolic arterial pressure (SAP), diastolic arterial pressure (DAP), and right atrial pressure (RAP). RESULTS Mean ETCO2 was higher in the DC33 group compared with the DC50 group (22.5 mmHg vs 21.5 mmHg, P = 0.018). In a linear mixed model, 33% duty cycle increased ETCO2 by 1.0 mmHg compared with 50% duty cycle (P < 0.001). ETCO2 increased over time in the DC33 group [0.6 mmHg/min] while ETCO2 decreased in the DC50 group [-0.6 mmHg/min] (P < 0.001). Duty cycle of 33% increased SAP (6.0 mmHg, P < 0.001), DAP (8.9 mmHg, P < 0.001) RAP (2.6 mmHg, P < 0.001) and CPP (4.7 mmHg, P < 0.001) compared with the duty cycle of 50%. CONCLUSION Duty cycle of 33% increased ETCO2, a surrogate measurement for cardiac output during CPR, compared with duty cycle of 50%. Moreover, ETCO2 increased over time during CPR with 33% duty cycle while ETCO2 decreased with 50% duty cycle.

Abstract
Arrhythmias are common and contribute substantially to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The underlying pathophysiology of arrhythmias is complex and remains incompletely understood, which explains why mostly only symptomatic therapy is available. The evaluation of the complex interplay between various cell types in the heart, including cardiomyocytes from the conduction system and the working myocardium, fibroblasts and cardiac immune cells, remains a major challenge in arrhythmia research because it can be investigated only in vivo. Various animal species have been used, and several disease models have been developed to study arrhythmias. Although every species is useful and might be ideal to study a specific hypothesis, we suggest a practical trio of animal models for future use: mice for genetic investigations, mechanistic evaluations or early studies to identify potential drug targets; rabbits for studies on ion channel function, repolarization or re-entrant arrhythmias; and pigs for preclinical translational studies to validate previous findings. In this Review, we provide a comprehensive overview of different models and currently used species for arrhythmia research, discuss their advantages and disadvantages and provide guidance for researchers who are considering performing in vivo studies.

Abstract
Background The effectiveness of adrenaline during resuscitation continues to be debated despite being recommended in international guidelines. There is evidence that the β-adrenergic receptor (AR) effects of adrenaline are harmful due to increased myocardial oxygen consumption, post-defibrillation ventricular arrhythmias and increased severity of post-arrest myocardial dysfunction. Esmolol may counteract these unfavourable β-AR effects and thus preserve post-arrest myocardial function. We evaluated whether a single dose of esmolol administered prior to adrenaline preserves post-arrest cardiac output among successfully resuscitated animals in a novel, ischaemic cardiac arrest porcine model. Methods Myocardial infarction was induced in 20 anaesthetized pigs by inflating a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) balloon in the circumflex artery 15 min prior to induction of ventricular fibrillation. After 10 min of untreated VF, resuscitation with veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) was initiated and the animals were randomized to receive an injection of either 1 mg/kg esmolol or 9 mg/ml NaCl, prior to adrenaline. Investigators were blinded to allocation. Successful defibrillation was followed by a 1-h high-flow VA-ECMO before weaning and an additional 1-h stabilization period. The PCI-balloon was deflated 40 min after inflation. Cardiac function pre- and post-arrest (including cardiac output) was assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and invasive pressure measurements. Myocardial injury was estimated with MRI, triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining and serum concentrations of cardiac troponin T. Results Only seven esmolol and five placebo-treated pigs were successfully resuscitated and available for post-arrest measurements (p = 0.7). MRI revealed severe but similar reductions in post-arrest cardiac function with cardiac output 3.5 (3.3, 3.7) and 3.3 (3.2, 3.9) l/min for esmolol and control (placebo) groups, respectively (p = 0.7). The control group had larger left ventricular end-systolic and end-diastolic ventricular volumes compared to the esmolol group (75 (65, 100) vs. 62 (53, 70) ml, p = 0.03 and 103 (86, 124) vs. 87 (72, 91) ml, p = 0.03 for control and esmolol groups, respectively). There were no other significant differences in MRI characteristics, myocardial infarct size or other haemodynamic measurements between the two groups. Conclusions We observed similar post-arrest cardiac output with and without a single dose of esmolol prior to adrenaline administration during low-flow VA-ECMO in an ischaemic cardiac arrest pig model.

Abstract
Neurological disease is killing us. While there have long been attempts to develop therapies for both acute and chronic neurological diseases, no current treatments are curative. Additionally, therapeutic development for neurological disease takes 15 years and often costs several billion dollars. More than 96% of these therapies will fail in late stage clinical trials. Engineering novel treatment interventions for neurological disease can improve outcomes and quality of life for millions; however, therapeutics should be designed with the underlying physiology and pathology in mind. In this perspective, we aim to unpack the importance of, and need to understand, the physiology of neurological disease. We first dive into the normal physiological considerations that should guide experimental design, and then assess the pathophysiological factors of acute and chronic neurological disease that should direct treatment design. We provide an analysis of a nanobased therapeutic intervention that proved successful in translation due to incorporation of physiology at all stages of the research process. We also provide an opinion on the importance of keeping a high-level view to designing and administering treatment interventions. Finally, we close with an implementation strategy for applying a disease-directed engineering approach. Our assessment encourages embracing the complexity of neurological disease, as well as increasing efforts to provide system-level thinking in our development of therapeutics for neurological disease.

Abstract
We discuss large animal translational models of arrhythmia susceptibility and sudden cardiac death, focusing on important considerations when interpreting the data derived before applying them to human trials. The utility of large animal models of arrhythmia and the pros and cons of specific translational large animals used will be discussed, including the necessary tradeoffs between models designed to derive mechanisms vs. those to test therapies. Recent technical advancements which can be applied to large animal models of arrhythmias to better elucidate mechanistic insights will be introduced. Finally, some specific examples of past successes and challenges in translating the results of large animal models of arrhythmias to clinical trials and practice will be examined, and common themes regarding the success and failure of translating studies to therapy in man will be discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There currently are no well-defined animal models for traumatic pulseless electrical activity (PEA). Our objective was to develop a swine model of traumatic PEA that would be useful for laboratory research where mortality is an outcome of interest. In this pilot study, we hypothesized that animals that remained in PEA without intervention for a longer period would have increased mortality. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixteen Yorkshire swine were alternately allocated to either 5 or 10 min of traumatic PEA without intervention. After the nonintervention period, basic life support (BLS) with mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation was initiated and performed for 10 min followed by advanced life support (ALS) for an additional 10 min. Hemodynamic and laboratory values are reported for baseline, posthemorrhage, end of BLS, and end of ALS periods. RESULTS Mortality in the 10-min PEA group (100%) was higher than the 5-min group (38%) (P = 0.03). Animals in the 5-min group had improved aortic diastolic blood pressure, coronary perfusion pressure, and end-tidal CO2 at the end of both the BLS (P = 0.02, 0.002, and 0.02, respectively) and ALS (P = 0.009, 0.005, and 0.008, respectively). The 10-min animals had increased hyperkalemia at the end of the BLS (P = 0.004) and ALS (P = 0.005) periods. All animals in the 10-min group developed ventricular fibrillation (VF) and 38% of the 5-min animals developed VF (P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS In our pilot study of traumatic PEA in a swine model, a shorter period of nonintervention resulted in increased survival, improved hemodynamics during resuscitation, decreased hyperkalemia, and less incidence of conversion to VF arrest.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several indices exist to assess cerebral perfusion after cardiac arrest (CA). We aimed to investigate a new approach allowing absolute flow and microvascular resistance measurement based on selective arterial continuous thermodilution before and after CA resuscitation in a porcine model. METHODS In anaesthetised pigs, intravascular absolute cerebral blood flow (CBF) and absolute coronary blood flow (ABF) with corresponding microvascular resistances were measured. CA was induced using overdrive pacing with 3 (group 1, n = 5) or 5 min (group 2, n = 8) of no flow. After resuscitation, CBF was performed at baseline, at 15 min (T15) and at 30 min (T30). Thereafter, CBF in the contralateral cerebral artery and ABF were measured. RESULTS The protocol could not be completed in three pigs from group 2 due to haemodynamic instability. In the entire cohort, CBF was significantly lower at T30 after CA (0.026 ± 0.02 L/min vs 0.040 ± 0.03 at baseline; p = 0.03) and cerebral microvascular resistances were significantly higher (3202 ± 1838 Woods units vs 2014 ± 1015 at baseline; p = 0.04). ABF and resistances remained stable at baseline, as compared to T30 (0.122 ± 0.05 vs. 0.143 ± 0.06 L/min; p = 0.15 and 563 ± 203 vs. 478 ± 181 Woods units; p = 0.36, respectively). At T30, no significant differences in cerebral flow dynamics were observed between groups. CONCLUSIONS ABF and CBF measurement after CA resuscitation is feasible with thermodilution technique, allowing accurate monitoring and measurements. This novel approach allows simultaneous measurements of flow and microvascular resistances. This animal model simplifies cerebral perfusion measurements and allows to test new therapies to reduce cerebral injury post cardiac arrest.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prehospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation, including closed chest compressions, has commonly been considered ineffective in traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest (TCPA) because traditional chest compressions do not produce substantial cardiac output. However, recent evidence suggests that chest compressions located over the left ventricle (LV) produce greater hemodynamics when compared to traditional compressions. We hypothesized that chest compressions located directly over the LV would improve return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and hemodynamics when compared with traditional chest compressions, in a swine model of TCPA. METHODS Transthoracic echocardiography was used to mark the location of the aortic root (traditional compressions), and the center of the LV on animals (n = 26) which were randomized to receive chest compressions in one of the two locations. After hemorrhage, ventricular fibrillation was induced. After 10 minutes of ventricular fibrillation, basic life support (BLS) with mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation was initiated and performed for 10 minutes followed by advanced life support (ALS) for an additional 10 minutes. During BLS, the area of maximal compression was verified using transesophageal echocardiography. Hemodynamic variables were averaged over the final 2 minutes of the BLS and ALS periods. RESULTS Five (38%) of the LV group achieved ROSC compared with zero of the aortic root group (p = 0.04). Additionally, there was an increase in aortic systolic blood pressure (SBP), aortic diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) at the end of both the BLS (95% confidence interval, SBP, -49 to -21; DBP, -14 to -5.6; and CPP, -15 to -7.4) and ALS (95% confidence interval: SBP, -66 to -21; DBP, -49 to -6.8; and CPP, -51 to -7.5) resuscitation periods among the LV group. CONCLUSION In our swine model of TCPA, chest compressions performed directly over the LV improved ROSC and hemodynamics when compared with traditional chest compressions.

Abstract
AIM Standardized modeling of cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is crucial to evaluate new treatment options. Experimental porcine models are ideal, closely mimicking human-like physiology. However, anteroposterior chest diameter differs significantly, being larger in pigs and thus poses a challenge to achieve adequate perfusion pressures and consequently hemodynamics during CPR, which are commonly achieved during human resuscitation. The aim was to prove that standardized resuscitation is feasible and renders adequate hemodynamics and perfusion in pigs, using a specifically designed resuscitation board for a pneumatic chest compression device. METHODS AND RESULTS A "porcine-fit" resuscitation board was designed for our experiments to optimally use a pneumatic compression device (LUCAS® II, Physio-Control Inc.), which is widely employed in emergency medicine and ideal in an experimental setting due to its high standardization. Asphyxial cardiac arrest was induced in 10 German hybrid landrace pigs and cardiopulmonary resuscitation was performed according to ERC/AHA 2015 guidelines with mechanical chest compressions. Hemodynamics were measured in the carotid and pulmonary artery. Furthermore, arterial blood gas was drawn to assess oxygenation and tissue perfusion. The custom-designed resuscitation board in combination with the LUCAS® device demonstrated highly sufficient performance regarding hemodynamics during CPR (mean arterial blood pressure, MAP 46 ± 1 mmHg and mean pulmonary artery pressure, mPAP of 36 ± 1 mmHg over the course of CPR). MAP returned to baseline values at 2 h after ROSC (80 ± 4 mmHg), requiring moderate doses of vasopressors. Furthermore, stroke volume and contractility were analyzed using pulse contour analysis (106 ± 3 ml and 1097 ± 22 mmHg/s during CPR). Blood gas analysis revealed CPR-typical changes, normalizing in the due course. Thermodilution parameters did not show persistent intravascular volume shift. CONCLUSION Standardized cardiopulmonary resuscitation is feasible in a porcine model, achieving adequate hemodynamics and consecutive tissue perfusion of consistent quality.

Abstract
Extracorporeal life support is a promising concept for selected patients in refractory cardiogenic shock and for advanced life support of persistent ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest. Animal models of ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest could help to investigate new treatment strategies for successful resuscitation. Associated procedural pitfalls in establishing a rat model of extracorporeal life support resuscitation need to be replaced, refined, reduced, and reported.Anesthetized male Sprague-Dawley rats (350-600 g) (n = 126) underwent cardiac arrest induced with a pacing catheter placed into the right ventricle via a jugular cannula. Rats were resuscitated with extracorporeal life support, mechanical ventilation, defibrillation, and medication. Catheter and cannula explantation was performed if restoration of spontaneous circulation was achieved. All observed serious adverse events (SAEs) occurring in each of the experimental phases were analyzed.Restoration of spontaneous circulation could be achieved in 68 of 126 rats (54%); SAEs were observed in 76 (60%) experiments. Experimental procedures related SAEs were 62 (82%) and avoidable human errors were 14 (18%). The most common serious adverse events were caused by insertion or explantation of the venous bypass cannula and resulted in lethal bleeding, cannula dislocation, or air embolism.Establishing an extracorporeal life support model in rats has confronted us with technical challenges. Even advancements in small animal critical care management over the years delivered by an experienced team and technical modifications were not able to totally avoid such serious adverse events. Replacement, refinement, and reduction reports of serious adverse events demanding study exclusions to avoid animal resources are missing and are presented hereby.

Abstract
Cardiac arrest is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Although many victims are initially resuscitated, they often suffer from serious brain injury, even leading to a “persistent vegetative state”. Therefore, it is need to explore therapies which restore and protect brain function after cardiac arrest. In the present study, using Tg (HuC:GCaMP5) zebrafish as a model, we found the zebrafish brain generated a burst of Ca2+ wave after cardiac arrest by in vivo time-lapse confocal imaging. The Ca2+ wave was firstly initiated at hindbrain and then sequentially propagated to midbrain and telencephalon, the neuron displayed Ca2+ overload after Ca2+ wave propagation. Consistent with this, our study further demonstrated neuronal apoptosis was increased in cardiac arrest zebrafish by TUNEL staining. The cardiac arrest-induced Ca2+ wave propagation can be prevented by general anesthetics such as midazolam or ketamine pretreatment. Moreover, midazolam or ketamine pretreatment dramatically decreased the neuronal apoptosis and improved the survival rate in CA zebrafish. Taken together, these findings provide the first in vivo evidence that general anesthetics pretreatment protects against cardiac arrest-induced brain injury by inhibiting calcium wave propagation in zebrafish.

Abstract
Reliable prognostic methods for cerebral functional outcome of post cardiac-arrest (CA) patients are necessary, especially since therapeutic hypothermia (TH) as a standard treatment. Traditional neurophysiological prognostic indicators, such as clinical examination and chemical biomarkers, may result in indecisive outcome predictions and do not directly reflect neuronal activity, though they have remained the mainstay of clinical prognosis. The most recent advances in electrophysiological methods--electroencephalography (EEG) pattern, evoked potential (EP) and cellular electrophysiological measurement--were developed to complement these deficiencies, and will be examined in this review article. EEG pattern (reactivity and continuity) provides real-time and accurate information for early-stage (particularly in the first 24 h) hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain injury patients with high sensitivity. However, the signal is easily affected by external stimuli, thus the measurements of EP should be combined with EEG background to validate the predicted neurologic functional result. Cellular electrophysiology, such as multi-unit activity (MUA) and local field potentials (LFP), has strong potential for improving prognostication and therapy by offering additional neurophysiologic information to understand the underlying mechanisms of therapeutic methods. Electrophysiology provides reliable and precise prognostication on both global and cellular levels secondary to cerebral injury in cardiac arrest patients treated with TH.

Abstract
Cardiac electromechanical dysfunction may compromise recovery of patients who are initially resuscitated from cardiac arrest, and effective treatments remain elusive. Pyruvate, a natural intermediary metabolite, energy substrate, and antioxidant, has been found to protect the heart from ischemia-reperfusion injury. This study tested the hypothesis that pyruvate-enriched resuscitation restores hemodynamic, metabolic, and electrolyte homeostasis following cardiac arrest. Forty-two Yorkshire swine underwent pacing-induced ventricular fibrillation and, after 6 min pre-intervention arrest, 4 min precordial compressions followed by transthoracic countershocks. After defibrillation and recovery of spontaneous circulation, the pigs were monitored for another 4 h. Sodium pyruvate or NaCl were infused i.v. (0.1 mmol·kg(-1)·min(-1)) throughout precordial compressions and the first 60 min recovery. In 8 of the 24 NaCl-infused swine, the first countershock converted ventricular fibrillation to pulseless electrical activity unresponsive to subsequent countershocks, but only 1 of 18 pyruvate-treated swine developed pulseless electrical activity (relative risk 0.17; 95% confidence interval 0.13-0.22). Pyruvate treatment also lowered the dosage of vasoconstrictor phenylephrine required to maintain systemic arterial pressure at 15-60 min recovery, hastened clearance of excess glucose, elevated arterial bicarbonate, and raised arterial pH; these statistically significant effects persisted up to 3 h after sodium pyruvate infusion, while infusion-induced hypernatremia subsided. These results demonstrate that pyruvate-enriched resuscitation achieves electrocardiographic and hemodynamic stability in swine during the initial recovery from cardiac arrest. Such metabolically based treatment may offer an effective strategy to support cardiac electromechanical recovery immediately after cardiac arrest.
