Time Delays and Capability of Elderly to Activate Speaker Function for Continuous Telephone CPR [PDF]

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2013
Telephone-CPR (T-CPR) can increase rate of bystander CPR as well as CPR quality. Instructions for T-CPR were developed when most callers used a land line. Telephones today are often wireless and can be brought to the patient. They often have speaker function which further allows the rescuer to receive instructions while performing CPR.We wanted to ...

Telephone CPR (T-CPR) has significant variations in time from call receipt to first compression, with reported delays of up to five minutes. Ireland's National Ambulance Service (NAS) uses T-CPR based on standard AMPDS questions; we aimed to identify the time to first compression and the times needed for question blocks. Ireland has a low survival rate

Communication and Protocol Compliance and Their Relation to the Quality of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR): A Mixed-Methods Study of Simulated Telephone-Assisted CPR

International Emergency Nursing, 2015
In the event of a cardiac arrest, emergency medical dispatchers (EMDs) play a critical role by providing telephone-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (T-CPR) to laypersons. The aim of our investigation was to describe compliance with the T-CPR protocol, the performance of the laypersons in a simulated T-CPR situation, and the communication between ...
