Chest compression metrics during infant basic life support using 15:2 and 10:2 compression–ventilation ratios: a randomized crossover simulation study [PDF]
Introduction: High-quality chest compressions and effective ventilation are key components of pediatric basic life support (BLS), although the optimal compression–ventilation ratio remains uncertain. This study compared cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)

Chest Compressions in the Delivery Room [PDF]
Annually, an estimated 13–26 million newborns need respiratory support and 2–3 million newborns need extensive resuscitation, defined as chest compression and 100% oxygen with or without epinephrine in the delivery room.

Effects of forward-leaning cardiopulmonary resuscitation on chest compression quality and rescuer fatigue [PDF]
Aim Guided by the 2020 AHA quality targets for chest compressions, we used a manikin model to assess the effects of compression angle (90° vs. 100°) and audiovisual feedback on compression quality and rescuer fatigue.
