چکیده

Introduction Survival rates from paediatric in-hospital cardiac arrests (CA) have not changed substantially in the last 30 years and range from 14 to 36% [1]. Recent studies emphasise that the early initiation of basic life support (BLS) within the first minutes is essential for survival and contributes to a better outcome [2]. Despite the importance of the first responders’ interventions, it has been shown that their actions are often inadequate [1]. Little is known about how the presence of monitoring may influence life support measures. The aim of this study was to compare the times to initiation of first chest compressions in monitored versus non-monitored simulated paediatric CA scenarios.
