Automatic External Cardiac Massage: a Portable Pneumatic External Cardiac Compression Machine.
Massage or manual compression of the heart is accepted as a useful procedure when heart action has ceased because of accident or temporarily disordered function. Experience in the operating theatre has shown that manual massage through the open chest should be maintained for over an hour before being abandoned, but the procedure is tiring, and the operator must be relieved at frequent intervals...
متن کاملExternal cardiac compression.
gives a welcome opportunity to discuss the use of external cardiac resuscitation by personnel of the Electricity Supply Industry. The dangers of this technique have been pointed out by Baringer et al. (1961) and by Clark (1962). As a result of the paper by Baringer and his colleagues, both the Lancet (1961) and the British Medical Journal (1961) carried leading articles counselling against the ...
متن کاملThe physiology of external cardiac massage: high-impulse cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
In intact chronically instrumented dogs, left ventricular dynamics were studied during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Electromagnetic flow probes measured cardiac output and coronary blood flow, ultrasonic transducers measured cardiac dimensions, and micromanometers measured left ventricular, right ventricular, aortic, and intrathoracic pressures. The dogs were anesthetized with morphine,...
متن کاملRight atrial laceration. Complication of external cardiac massage.
Right atrial laceration is described as a complication of external cardiac massage in two patients. In each there was a pre-existent cause of weakness of the atrial wall. There was pronounced right atrial dilation with attenuation of the wall in one case, and in the other there was a granulomatous myocarditis involving the atrial wall. The significance of atrial laceration as a complication of ...

rupture owing to high pressure or damage to the septa the air passes through the lower-pressure alveolar sheaths to the mediastinum via the lung roots. Passage of air from the mediastinum to the neck or retroperitoneal space tends to decompress the mediastinum. The appearance of subcutaneous emphysema in the neck in respiratory disorders usually indicates the presence of a pneumomediastinum. In...
