Chest compression-only cardiocerebral resuscitation
Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2009Conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by bystanders with chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth ventilation has been documented to save life. Nevertheless, despite four decades of promulgation, it is a serious problem that the majority of bystanders are unwilling or unable to perform conventional CPR.

Right ventricle chest compressions
2017The use of chest compressions in patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) have been viewed to cause a potential damage to the outflow graft and hence have been a topic of controversy. We report a case of a LVAD patient who needed chest compressions during resuscitation for severe right ventricular failure.

The concept of “external cardiac massage,” first introduced in the early 1960s by Kouwenhoven, Jude, and Knickerbocker (1), includes chest compressions at a rate of 60 to 100 per minute in conjunction with mouth-to-mouth rescue breathing (2). Refinements of standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) since its introduction in the 1960s have included ...

Chest compression pauses during defibrillation attempts
Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2016This article summarizes current knowledge of the causes and consequences of interruption of chest compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation.Pauses in chest compressions occur during analysis of the heart rhythm, delivery of ventilation, interventions such as intubation, and gaining intravenous access, but pauses may also be unprompted.

Radiological assessment of the adult chest: Implications for chest compressions
Resuscitation, 2006The recommended depth for chest compression during adult cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is 4-5 cm, and for children one-third the anterior-posterior (AP) chest diameter. A compression depth of one-third of the AP chest diameter has also been suggested for adult CPR.

Automated Chest Compression Devices
Canadian Journal of Health TechnologiesWhat Is the Issue? People who experience cardiac arrest need immediate care. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), performed manually by a human rescuer, is a first line of treatment. Automated chest compression devices, also known as mechanical CPR devices, are designed to deliver high-quality, consistent compressions and may be of particular ...
