Chest compressions quality during sudden cardiac arrest scenario performed in virtual reality

Medicine, 2020
Potential attributes of virtual reality (VR) can be a breakthrough in the improvement of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) training. However, interference with the virtual world is associated with the need of placing additional equipment on the trainee's body.

What is the potential for over-compression using current paediatric chest compression guidelines? — A chest computed tomography study

Resuscitation Plus, 2021
Aim: We explored the potential for over-compression from current paediatric chest compression depth guidelines using chest computed tomography(CT) images of a large, heterogenous, Asian population. Methods: A retrospective review of consecutive children,

Comparison between manual and mechanical chest compressions during resuscitation in a pediatric animal model of asphyxial cardiac arrest. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Chest compressions (CC) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation are not sufficiently effective in many circumstances. Mechanical CC could be more effective than manual CC, but there are no studies comparing both techniques in children. The objective of this

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).

Survival in Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest After Standard Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation or Chest Compressions Only Before Arrival of Emergency Medical Services: Nationwide Study During Three Guideline Periods.

Circulation, 2019
Background: In out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, chest compression–only cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CO-CPR) has emerged as an alternative to standard CPR (S-CPR), using both chest compressions and...
