1036. Comparison of the hemodynamic parameters of two external chest compression devices (LUCAS versus AUTOPULSE) in a swine model of ventricular fibrillation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction Given the difficulty of performing efficient CPR compressions, technology has turned to automaticity. LUCAS device has a pneumatically driven piston to compress the heart and uses active decompression suction on the upstroke. AUTOPULSE is a load distributing band compressor, that is mechanically actuated and battery driven. It provides both direct compression and semi-circumferential thoracic compression.

متن کاملCardiopulmonary resuscitation with a novel chest compression device in a porcine model of cardiac arrest: improved hemodynamics and mechanisms.
OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to determine the magnitude and mechanisms of hemodynamic improvement of an automated, load-distributing band device (AutoPulse, Revivant Corp., Sunnyvale, California) compared with conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (C-CPR). BACKGROUND Improved blood flow during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) enhances survival from cardiac arrest. METHODS A...
متن کاملA comparison of autopsy detected injuries in a porcine model of cardiac arrest treated with either manual or mechanical chest compressions.
The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the complications of cardiopulmonary resuscitation after manual or mechanical chest compressions in a swine model of ventricular fibrillation. In this retrospective study, 106 swine were treated with either manual (n=53) or mechanical chest compressions with the LUCAS device (n=53). All swine cadavers underwent necropsy. The animals with n...
متن کاملPresence of chest tubes does not affect the hemodynamic efficacy of standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation
Background During cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), chest tubes can hinder increases in intrathoracic pressure by venting the pressure during chest compressions, thus reducing the blood flow generated by the thoracic pump effect. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of chest tubes on hemodynamic efficacy during standard CPR in a swine model of cardiac arrest. Methods...
متن کاملSafety of mechanical chest compression devices AutoPulse and LUCAS in cardiac arrest: a randomized clinical trial for non-inferiority
Aims Mechanical chest compression (CC) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) with AutoPulse or LUCAS devices has not improved survival from cardiac arrest. Cohort studies suggest risk of excess damage. We studied safety of mechanical CC and determined possible excess damage compared with manual CC. Methods and results This is a randomized non-inferiority safety study. Randomization to Au...
