Advances in imaging chest tuberculosis: blurring of differences between children and adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This article reviews the ongoing role of imaging in the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) and its complications. A modern imaging classification of TB, taking into account both adults and children and the blurring of differences in the presentation patterns,

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

open access: yesSwiss 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.

Chest Compression Rate [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 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 ...

Monitoring chest compression rate in automated external defibrillators using the autocorrelation of the transthoracic impedance.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
AimHigh-quality chest compressions is challenging for bystanders and first responders to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Long compression pauses and compression rates higher than recommended are common and detrimental to survival.

Is Chest Compression Superimposed with Sustained Inflation during Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation an Alternative to 3:1 Compression to Ventilation Ratio in Newborn Infants?

open access: yesChildren, 2021
Approximately 0.1% for term and 10–15% of preterm infants receive chest compression (CC) in the delivery room, with high incidence of mortality and neurologic impairment.

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.
