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.

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 compressions and defibrillation as aerosolgenerating procedures

, 2023
SARS-CoV-2 is a highly contagious respiratory pathogen associated with significant mortality in certain patient populations. Patients may be asymptomatic, which causes problems regarding infection control and prevention. Health professionals are required

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.

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.

Left ventricle chest compression improves ETCO2, blood pressure, and cerebral blood velocity in a swine model of cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation

Resuscitation Plus, 2022
Introduction: During cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), high quality chest compressions are critical to organ perfusion, especially the brain. Yet, the optimal location for chest compressions is unclear.

Displacement of impella post chest compressions

Heart Views, 2014
The Impella is a left ventricular assist device which is implanted via the transcutaneous femoral route and is placed across the aortic valve into the left ventricle. We report an interesting case where cardiopulmonary resuscitation was associated with displacement of Impella device.
