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.

Validating peer-led assessments of CPR performance

Resuscitation Plus, 2020
Background: A patient’s survival from cardiac arrest is improved if they receive good quality chest compressions as soon as possible. During cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training subjective assessments of chest compression quality is still common.

Quality of Basic Life Support – A Comparison between Medical Students and Paramedics [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Poor survival rates after cardiac arrest can partly be explained by poor basic life support skills in medical professionals. Aim: This study aimed to assess quality of basic life support in medical students and paramedics.

Ventricular Fibrillation Waveform Analysis during Chest Compressions to Predict Survival from Cardiac Arrest

Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, 2019
Background: Quantitative measures of the ventricular fibrillation (VF) ECG waveform can assess myocardial physiology and predict cardiac arrest outcomes, making these measures a candidate to help guide resuscitation.

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

PLoS 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.
