Radiological assessment of chest compression point and achievable compression depth in cardiac patients.
BACKGROUND Using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to relate cardiovascular structures to surface anatomy in a population relevant to cardiac arrest victims, relate the external thoracic anterior-posterior (AP) diameter (APEXTERNAL) and blood-filled structures to recommended chest compression depths, and define an optimal compression point (OCP). METHODS MRI axial scans of referred patients we...
متن کاملChest compression depth and survival in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
AIM Outcomes from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) may improve if rescuers perform chest compressions (CCs) deeper than the previous recommendation of 38-51mm and consistent with the 2010 AHA Guideline recommendation of at least 51mm. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between CC depth and OHCA survival. METHODS Prospective analysis of CC depth and outcomes in consecuti...
متن کاملFactors affecting the accuracy of chest compression depth estimation
OBJECTIVE We aimed to estimate the accuracy of visual estimation of chest compression depth and identify potential factors affecting accuracy. METHODS This simulation study used a basic life support mannequin, the Ambu man. We recorded chest compression with 7 different depths from 1 to 7 cm. Each video clip was recorded for a cycle of compression. Three different viewpoints were used to reco...
متن کاملWhat is the optimal chest compression depth during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest resuscitation of adult patients?
BACKGROUND The 2010 American Heart Association guidelines suggested an increase in cardiopulmonary resuscitation compression depth with a target >50 mm and no upper limit. This target is based on limited evidence, and we sought to determine the optimal compression depth range. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied emergency medical services-treated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients from the Re...
متن کاملRelationship between chest compression rates and outcomes from cardiac arrest.
BACKGROUND Guidelines for cardiopulmonary resuscitation recommend a chest compression rate of at least 100 compressions per minute. Animal and human studies have reported that blood flow is greatest with chest compression rates near 120/min, but few have reported rates used during out-of-hospital (OOH) cardiopulmonary resuscitation or the relationship between rate and outcome. The purpose of th...
