Abstract
The International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation engages in a continuous review of new, peer-reviewed, published cardiopulmonary resuscitation and first aid science. Draft Consensus on Science With Treatment Recommendations are posted online throughout the year, and this annual summary provides more concise versions of the final Consensus on Science With Treatment Recommendations from all task forces for the year. Topics addressed by systematic reviews this year include resuscitation of cardiac arrest from drowning, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation for adults and children, calcium during cardiac arrest, double sequential defibrillation, neuroprognostication after cardiac arrest for adults and children, maintaining normal temperature after preterm birth, heart rate monitoring methods for diagnostics in neonates, detection of exhaled carbon dioxide in neonates, family presence during resuscitation of adults, and a stepwise approach to resuscitation skills training. Members from 6 International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation task forces have assessed, discussed, and debated the quality of the evidence, using Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation criteria, and their statements include consensus treatment recommendations. Insights into the deliberations of the task forces are provided in the Justification and Evidence-to-Decision Framework Highlights sections. In addition, the task forces list priority knowledge gaps for further research. Additional topics are addressed with scoping reviews and evidence updates.

Abstract
AIM OF THE REVIEW Improving rates of organ donation among patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest who do not survive is an opportunity to save countless lives. The objectives of this scientific statement were to do the following: define the opportunity for organ donation among patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest; identify challenges and opportunities associated with organ donation by patients with cardiac arrest; identify strategies, including a generic protocol for organ donation after cardiac arrest, to increase the rate and consistency of organ donation from this population; and provide rationale for including organ donation as a key clinical outcome for all future cardiac arrest clinical trials and registries. METHODS The scope of this International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation scientific statement was approved by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation board and the American Heart Association, posted on ILCOR.org for public comment, and then assigned by section to primary and secondary authors. A unique literature search was completed and updated for each section. RESULTS There are a number of defining pathways for patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest to become organ donors; however, modifications in the Maastricht classification system need to be made to correctly identify these donors and to report outcomes with consistency. Suggested modifications to the minimum data set for reporting cardiac arrests will increase reporting of organ donation as an important resuscitation outcome. There are a number of challenges with implementing uncontrolled donation after cardiac death protocols, and the greatest impediment is the lack of legislation in most countries to mandate organ donation as the default option. Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation has the potential to increase organ donation rates, but more research is needed to derive neuroprognostication rules to guide clinical decision-making about when to stop extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation and to evaluate cost-effectiveness. CONCLUSIONS All health systems should develop, implement, and evaluate protocols designed to optimize organ donation opportunities for patients who have an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and failed attempts at resuscitation.

Abstract
Objectives The objective of this study is to present our initial experience with a novel parenchymal clamp (NPC) developed to allow partial nephrectomies (PN) to be performed without whole kidney ischaemia. We compare patients who underwent PN with the NPC with those undergoing standard PNs. Methods The NPC applies pressure only to the portion of the parenchyma containing the small renal mass (≤3.5 cm) and interrupts regional blood flow.A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients that underwent open PN within our unit. Minimum follow-up was 12 months. Patient and disease characteristics, perioperative outcomes and renal function estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) were compared. Results Data were collected on 63 patients, of whom 33 had their procedure performed with the NPC. Demographic characteristics and comorbidity profiles were not significantly different between groups (p between 1.0 and 0.08). RENAL nephrometry scores were 5.6 in the NPC group versus 6.2 in the standard PN group (p = 0.146).Perioperative, operative and postoperative data did not show significant differences. There was no difference in the rates of Clavien-Dindo III or above complications between the two groups (NPC 3/33 vs. standard PN 5/30, p = 0.416). There was also no statistically significant difference to changes in renal functional at 12 months (change -5.2 and -6.4, p = 0.712). Conclusions Despite the limited sample size and follow-up, this study establishes the safety of the NPC. In the future, we intend to perform a prospective study on the laparoscopic version.

Abstract
We conducted a rapid review of current international and Australian/New Zealand guidelines on first aid for burns to identify any critical variation and any recent major changes in the literature that would warrant a significant change to current recommendations. A search was conducted to identify Australian/New Zealand and international first aid guidelines for burn care using guideline databases, and we compared key recommendations from each guideline relating to burns first aid. A literature search of relevant databases (Medline, Embase, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, PROSPERO international register of systematic reviews, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases) was conducted to identify existing and in-progress research published on the topic of first aid for burn injuries. Seven guidelines were identified from the Australia/New Zealand region, and 11 international guidelines were identified from the United States of America and Europe. All Australian and New Zealand guidelines recommended a cooling duration of 20 minutes and made some mention of when to refer a burn for medical evaluation, while international guidelines saw cooling duration variation, a number of guidelines failed to mention referral criteria. The review of published systematic reviews and clinical trials revealed a lack of new evidence in the last six years. Our rapid review identified key variation between first aid guidelines for burns that would benefit from the development of an international consensus on management. We identified no new significant evidence that would alter guideline recommendations and did not identify any upcoming reviews or clinical trials on this subject.

Abstract
Background The increase in the use of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging for the detection of prostate cancer has led to the rapid adoption of MRI-guided biopsies (MRGBs). To date, there is limited evidence in the use of MRGB and no direct comparisons between the different types of MRGB. We aimed to assess whether multiparametric MRGBs with MRI-US transperineal fusion biopsy (FB) and cognitive biopsy (CB) improved the management of prostate cancer and to assess if there is any difference in prostate cancer detection with FB compared with CB. Methods Patients who underwent an MRGB and a systematic biopsy (SB) from June 2014 to August 2016 on the Central Coast, NSW, Australia, were included in the study. The results of SB were compared with MRGB. The primary outcome was prostate cancer detection and if MRGB changed patient management. Results A total of 121 cases were included with a mean age of 65.5 years and prostate-specific antigen 7.4 ng/mL. Seventy-five cases (62%) had a Prostate Imaging and Reporting Data System 4–5 lesions and 46 (38%) had a Prostate Imaging and Reporting Data System 3 lesions. Fifty-six cases underwent CB and 65 underwent FB. Of the 93 patients with prostate cancer detected, 19 men (20.5%) had their management changed because of the MRGB results. Eight men (9%) had prostate cancer detected on MRGB only and 12 men (13%) underwent radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy based on the MRGB results alone. There was a trend to a higher rate of change in management with FB compared with CB (29% vs. 18%). Conclusions This is one of the first Australian studies to assess the utility of MRGB and compare FB with CB. MRGB is a useful adjunct to SB, changing management in over 20% of our cases, with a trend toward FB having a greater impact on patient management compared with CB.

Abstract
Background Urinary stones affect one in 10 Australians. The majority of stones pass spontaneously, but some conditions, particularly ongoing pain, renal impairment and infection, mandate intervention. Objective This article explores the role of the general practitioner in the assessment and management of urinary stones. Discussion The assessment of acute stone disease should determine the location, number and size of the stone(s), which influence its likelihood of spontaneous passage. Conservative management, with the addition of alpha blockers to facilitate passage of lower ureteric stones, should be attempted in cases of uncomplicated renal colic. Septic patients require urgent drainage and antibiotics. Other indications for referral and intervention include ongoing pain, renal impairment and stone size unlikely to pass spontaneously. There are many ways to eliminate stones, but laser lithotripsy is being used with increasing frequency. Up to 50% of people with a first presentation of stone disease will have a recurrence within 5 years. General advice for stone prevention consists of increasing fluid intake, especially water (sufficient to maintain dilute urine output), avoiding added salt and maintaining a well balanced low oxalate diet. Some patients may require a more detailed metabolic assessment and specific dietary advice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The UK National training programme (NEWSTART) for SLNB in breast cancer was established in 2004, aimed at providing structured, standardised training with a focus on multidisciplinary team (MDT) delivery. METHODOLOGY A questionnaire was devised and after approval by the Association of Breast Surgeons (ABS) executive committee they were sent to all full members of the ABS. RESULTS Most (97%) of breast surgeons are convinced by the evidence for SLNB as standard of care for early breast cancer. 64% use SLNB to stage clinically node negative patients, of whom 23% use it as a standalone procedure. 38% of surgeons were dissatisfied with the time it takes to complete the in house training, and 87% with the time it takes to complete the validation phase. Logistical and funding issues were the main problems cited. The majority of surgeons (86%) use the recommended combined technique, with 47% continuing to use the dual localisation method. 14% use either blue dye or isotope alone, without scintiscan. Only 10% offer intra operative diagnosis, of which the majority (6%) use touch imprint cytology. 31% included their results in their most recent surgical appraisal. CONCLUSIONS The majority of breast surgeons in the UK are convinced by the evidence for SLNB, and most use SLNB in their practice for staging. Reasons for not conducting SLNB are logistical rather than lack of belief in the procedure. The majority of respondents completed their training within the anticipated time line. The majority of centres do not perform intra-operative assessment.

Abstract
St John Ambulance is a household name synonymous with the teaching and provision of first aid. Recently the organisation has developed pre-hospital emergency care services through the introduction of the St John Ambulance Australia Advanced Casualty Management Team in New South Wales. The Advanced Casualty Management Team represents a move away from the practice of first aid by lay personnel and is a natural extension of the traditional work and principles of St John Ambulance. This article provides an overview of the Advanced Casualty Management Team and discusses its contribution to pre-hospital trauma care delivery.
