Cardiopulmonary resuscitation for cardiac arrest: the importance of uninterrupted chest compressions in cardiac arrest resuscitation.
Over the last decade, the importance of delivering high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for cardiac arrest patients has become increasingly emphasized. Many experts are in agreement concerning the appropriate compression rate, depth, and amount of chest recoil necessary for high-quality CPR. In addition to these factors, there is a growing body of evidence supporting continuous or u...
متن کاملContinuous-chest-compression cardiopulmonary resuscitation for cardiac arrest.
It is well known that out-of-hospital sudden cardiac death is a leading public health problem in the industrialized world. In the absence of early defibrillation, survival rates of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in most areas of the world are dismal and, except for a recent report of an improved rate of survival when their paramedic protocol was changed, have remained essen...

متن کاملThe Aassociation between Pre-Cardiac Arrest Comorbidity and Unsuccessful Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation in Patients with Cardiac Arrest
Background and Objective: Patients suffering from cardiac arrest (CA) have poor prognosis and survival. The association of pre-arrest comorbidity with unsuccessful resuscitation in patients with CA is far from clear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between pre-existing comorbidity and unsuccessful resuscitation following CA in Iranian patients. Materials and Met...
متن کاملUltrasound guided chest compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation
Background Early and effective chest compressions have a well known pivot role in cardiopulmunary resuscitation (CPR) and 2010 International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation have strongly reinforced its importance. The efficacy of chest compressions depends on hands position and on compression technique. Medical education can improve chest compression technique, while the choice of th...
