متن کاملMouth-to-mouth ventilation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation: word of mouth in the street versus science.
I n this issue of Anesthesia & Analgesia, Oschatz et al. (1) report that when lay bystanders in Vienna, Austria performed mouth-to-mouth ventilation in cardiac arrest victims before professional paramedics administered advanced cardiac life support, serious ventilation-related adverse effects such as pulmonary aspiration occurred no more often than in patients who collapsed in the presence of p...
متن کاملRetention of mouth-to-mouth, mouth-to-mask and mouth-to-face shield ventilation.
BACKGROUND Retention of mouth-to-mouth, mouth-to-mask and mouth-to-face shield ventilation techniques is poorly understood. METHODS A prospective randomised clinical trial was undertaken in January 2004 in 70 candidates randomly assigned to training in mouth-to-mouth, mouth-to-mask or mouth-to-face shield ventilation. Each candidate was trained for 10 min, after which tidal volume, respirator...
متن کاملWillingness to administer mouth-to-mouth ventilation in a first response program in rural Bangladesh
BACKGROUND Timely mouth-to-mouth ventilation is critical to resuscitate drowning victims. While drowning is frequent, there are no lay persons trained in cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in rural Bangladesh. As part of a feasibility study to create a first response system in a conservative Islamic village environment, a pilot was undertaken to examine willingness to provide mouth-to-mouth v...
متن کاملEffect of moderate altitude on the effect of mouth-to-mouth ventilation on blood gas analysis.
by spirometry and thoracic gas volume measured by body plethys¬ mography are identical, then it is the result of a suboptimal patient effort. The point of this case was that it is the degree of compres¬ sion, which is diagnostic. Although we also agree that both dynamic and fixed airway ob¬ struction could cause thoracic compression, we are unaware of studies relating to the latter. We certainl...
