Duration of ventilations during cardiopulmonary resuscitation by lay rescuers and first responders: relationship between delivering chest compressions and outcomes.
BACKGROUND The 2010 guidelines for cardiopulmonary resuscitation allow 5 seconds to give 2 breaths to deliver sufficient chest compressions and to keep perfusion pressure high. This study aims to determine whether the recommended short interruption for ventilations by trained lay rescuers and first responders can be achieved and to evaluate its consequence for chest compressions and survival. ...
متن کاملMouth-to-mouth: an obstacle to cardiopulmonary resuscitation for lay-rescuers.
It has been well demonstrated that both standard Cardiopulonary Resuscitation (CPR) and compression-only CPR are crucial or cardiac arrest victims’ survival,1 however, despite the fact hat about two-thirds of cardiac arrests are witnessed,2 only one hird receives bystander CPR3 owing to lay rescuers’ fears.4,5 In his regard, we decided to investigate whether the presence of outh-to-mouth ventil...
متن کاملEvaluation of lay skills in cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
The theoretical knowledge and practical performance of 166 lay people attending a short cardiopulmonary resuscitation course were evaluated according to the American Heart Association standards. Before tt course no participant was able to perform even a bad attempt at cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Theoretical knowledge was good at the end of the course and at the refresher course six months la...
متن کاملPotential wrist ligament injury in rescuers performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation
Wrist pain in rescuers performing chest compressions as part of cardiopulmonary resuscitation has been reported anecdotally and recently in the literature. Studies have indicated that rescuers apply as much as 644 N of force to the victim's chest with each compression, while standards require one hundred compressions per minute. Recent research suggests that forces transmitted through the rescu...
متن کاملThe effectiveness of ultrabrief and brief educational videos for training lay responders in hands-only cardiopulmonary resuscitation: implications for the future of citizen cardiopulmonary resuscitation training.
BACKGROUND Bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) improves survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) but often is not performed. We hypothesized that subjects viewing very short Hands-Only CPR videos will (1) be more likely to attempt CPR in a simulated OHCA scenario and (2) demonstrate better CPR skills than untrained individuals. METHODS AND RESULTS This study is a prospect...
