Pattern and Outcome of Chest Injuries at Bugando Medical Centre in Northwestern Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2011
Chest injuries constitute a continuing challenge to the trauma or general surgeon practicing in developing countries. This study was conducted to outline the etiological spectrum, injury patterns and short term outcome of these injuries in our setting ...

Clinical value of chest pain presentation and prodromes on the assessment of cardiovascular disease: a cohort study. [PDF]

, 2015
OBJECTIVES: The recognition of coronary artery disease (CAD) among patients who report chest pain remains difficult in primary care. This study investigates the association between chest pain (specified, unspecified or musculoskeletal) and prodromes ...

Strengths and weaknesses of chest compression training – a preliminary retrospective study

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2011
BACKGROUND: High quality chest compression is one of the key factors in successful resuscitation. A high standard of training is therefore decisive.

Experimental study of locally loaded timber in compression perpendicular to the grain [PDF]

, 2011
Since the test method for compression strength perpendicular to the grain was changed from a partial area to a full area loading test, strength values for softwood in EN 338 were significantly reduced.

Chest Compression Fraction and Factors influencing it

Journal of Emergencies, Trauma, and Shock, 2022
Introduction: Chest compression fraction (CCF) is the cumulative time spent providing chest compressions divided by the total time taken for the entire resuscitation. Targeting a CCF of at least 60% is intended to limit interruptions in compressions and maximize coronary perfusion during resuscitation.

Chest compression components (rate, depth, chest wall recoil and leaning) : a scoping review [PDF]

, 2019
Aim To understand whether the science to date has focused on single or multiple chest compression components and identify the evidence related to chest compression components to determine the need for a full systematic review.

Effectiveness of feedback with a smartwatch for high-quality chest compressions during adult cardiac arrest: A randomized controlled simulation study.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Previous studies have demonstrated the potential for using smartwatches with a built-in accelerometer as feedback devices for high-quality chest compression during cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Chest Compression Rate [PDF]

Circulation, 2012
The first description of modern cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) included the instruction to compress the chest “about 60 times per minute”1; however, the optimal compression rate was unknown. Franz Koenig is credited with describing the original technique for external cardiac massage, which included a compression rate of 30 to 40 per minute.2 But ...

Technique for chest compressions in adult CPR [PDF]

World Journal of Emergency Surgery, 2011
Chest compressions have saved the lives of countless patients in cardiac arrest as they generate a small but critical amount of blood flow to the heart and brain. This is achieved by direct cardiac massage as well as a thoracic pump mechanism. In order to optimize blood flow excellent chest compression technique is critical.
