Is dispatcher-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation affected by a bystander’s emotional stress state in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest?

Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2023
Aim The study aimed to investigate whether a bystander’s emotional stress state affects dispatcher-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (DA-CPR) in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The primary outcome was initiation of chest compressions (Yes/No).

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.

Regurgitation and pulmonary aspiration during cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) with a laryngeal tube: A pilot crossover human cadaver study.

PLoS ONE, 2019
BACKGROUND:High-quality chest compressions are imperative for Cardio-Pulmonary-Resuscitation (CPR). International CPR guidelines advocate, that chest compressions should not be interrupted for ventilation once a patient's trachea is intubated or a ...

Accurate measurement of chest compression depth using impulse-radio ultra-wideband sensor on a mattress. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
We developed a new chest compression depth (CCD) measuring technology using radar and impulse-radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) sensor. This study was performed to determine its accuracy on a soft surface.Four trials, trial 1: chest compressions on the floor

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 ...

Minute ventilation at different compression to ventilation ratios, different ventilation rates, and continuous chest compressions with asynchronous ventilation in a newborn manikin

Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2012
Background In newborn resuscitation the recommended rate of chest compressions should be 90 per minute and 30 ventilations should be delivered each minute, aiming at achieving a total of 120 events per minute.
