First ‐aid training in school: amount, content and hindrances
This study aimed to establish how much time is spent on first‐aid training, which first‐aid measures are taught, and which factors prevent teachers from providing the quantity and quality of first‐aid training that they wish to give. MethodsA questionnaire was distributed to teachers in physical education in primary and secondary schools and to teachers in vocational subjects in higher secondary schools. ResultsThe teachers taught a median of two lessons in first aid per year. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was taught by 64% of teachers, free airway and recovery position by 69% and stopping severe bleeding by 51...

Post‐operative serious adverse events in a mixed surgical population – a retrospective register study
ConclusionWe found a risk of one or more events in the composite outcome within 342 days after inclusion of the last patients of 8.3% (7.8–9.0). The results are applicable in estimations of adequate sample sizes in future clinical trials investigating effects of interventions on SAEs.

Central venous oxygen saturation and carbon dioxide gap as resuscitation targets in a hemorrhagic shock
ConclusionsIn this SV‐guided bleeding and fluid resuscitation model, both ScvO2 and dCO2 correlated well with changes in SV, but only the dCO2 returned to its baseline, normal value, while ScvO2 remained significantly lower than at baseline. These results suggest that dCO2 may be a good hemodynamic endpoint of resuscitation, while ScvO2 is not strictly a hemodynamic parameter, but rather an indicator of the balance between oxygen delivery and consumption.
