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.

Deep Neural Networks for ECG-Based Pulse Detection during Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest [PDF]

, 2019
The automatic detection of pulse during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is necessary for the early recognition of the arrest and the detection of return of spontaneous circulation (end of the arrest).

If only it were true: the problem with the four conditionals [PDF]

, 2010
The traditional division of conditionals into four main types (zero, first, second, and third) has long been called into question. Unfortunately, the awareness that this description does not reflect conditional patterns in actual usage has not generally ...

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.

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.

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.
