The impact of chest compression rates on quality of chest compressions – A manikin study [PDF]

open access: yesResuscitation, 2012
Chest compressions are often performed at a variable rate during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The effect of compression rate on other chest compression quality variables (compression depth, duty-cycle, leaning, performance decay over time) is unknown.

Chest Compression Depth and Rate ― Effect on Instructor Visual Assessment of Chest Compression Quality ― [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Journal, 2019
The aim of the present study was to determine whether instructors could accurately assess chest compression quality visually, considering the association between chest compression depth and rate.In this prospective, observational study, the quality of chest compressions performed by a simulated actor in a video was visually assessed by certified ...

CHEST COMPRESSION METHODS IN SIMULATED COVID-19 PATIENT RESUSCITATION: A RANDOMIZED CROSS-OVERSIMULATION TRIAL

open access: yesŽurnal Grodnenskogo Gosudarstvennogo Medicinskogo Universiteta, 2020
Background: High-quality chest compression is one of the key elements of resuscitation to return of spontaneous circulation. In the COVID-19 era, medical personnel should wear personal protective equipment (PPE) against aerosol generating procedures (AGP)

Mechanical versus manual chest compression for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (PARAMEDIC) : a pragmatic, cluster randomised controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Mechanical chest compression devices have the potential to help maintain high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), but despite their increasing use, little evidence exists for their effectiveness.

Straddle versus Conventional Chest Compressions in a Confined Space; a Comparative Study

open access: yesArchives of Academic Emergency Medicine, 2020
Introduction: When cardiac arrest occurs in a confined space, such as in an aircraft or ambulance, kneeling by the patient’s side may be difficult. Straddle chest compression is an alternative technique that can be used in a confined space. This study was

Prehospital randomised assessment of a mechanical compression device in cardiac arrest (PaRAMeDIC) trial protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background Survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is closely linked to the quality of CPR, but in real life, resuscitation during pre-hospital care and ambulance transport is often suboptimal.
