Objective: To determine the incidence of Basic Life Support (BLS) measures being implemented by the eyewitnesses in cases of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest before the arrival of the ambulance, as well as telephone-assisted CPR, and whether the measures taken affected the rate of achieving the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Material and Methods: The study is retrospective and observational. It was conducted for a year at the Institute for Emergency Medical Assistance Novi Sad. The study included patients with sudden cardiac arrest who were resuscitated by ambulance teams. Results: There were 148 patients enrolled in the study. In the group of patients who survived, there were fewer unrecognized cardiac arrests by the dispatcher, more telephone-assisted CPRs and fewer cases of no CPR measures undertaken by the eyewitnesses before the arrival of the ambulance. In the group of patients who survived, the only statistically significant event was cardiac arrest in the presence of the ambulance team. Conclusion: The implementation of telephone-assisted CPR protocol in dispatch centres would increase the number of cases in which bystanders could implement BLS measures before the arrival of the medical team.","PeriodicalId":491058,"journal":{"name":"Halo 194","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136306325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The diagnosis is usually made immediately after birth, but late diagnoses are not rare in otorhinolaryngology practice. Case report: We are presenting the case of an eighteen-year-old woman with a history of difficulty in breathing through her left nostril that lasted for many years, increased secretion from the nostril and frequent headaches. During preoperative preparation, computerized tomography of the paranasal sinuses revealed left-sided choanal atresia and obstruction in the region of the left osteomeatal complex, which was then successfully resolved using a modern surgical approach. She was observed postoperatively. A control examination with an endoscope was performed one month after the operation, indicating that both choanae were passable. Choanal atresia can be an isolated craniofacial malformation or associated with CHARGE, Teacher Collins, Down, Crouson and Pfeiffer syndromes. Bilateral choanal atresias are life-threatening. Unilateral choanal atresias can present with a variety of symptoms depending on the type of atresia and the age of the patient. Conclusion: The diagnosis is made with a clinical otorhinolaryngological examination, nasal endoscopy and computerized tomography of the paranasal sinuses and the skull base. The therapy is surgical.","PeriodicalId":491058,"journal":{"name":"Halo 194","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136304751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
