A Chest Compression System for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
نویسندگان
چکیده
A chest compression system for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) has been developed in house successfully. An electronic control unit has been developed and the details of construction and working principles are presented. Ambu manikin and the details of CPR software to analyze the data are explained. It is shown that with this indigenously developed chest compression mechatronics system it is possible to perform CPR satisfying AHA (American Heart Association) guidelines: 100 compressions per minute with a uniform compression depth of 50 mm.

Comparison of the Effects of Three Different Counting Methods on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Quality and Rescuer Fatigue
Background: Chest compression with adequate depth and number is one of the main indicators of high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Nevertheless, no proper counting technique is suggested to provide sufficient number of massages. Aim: To compare the effects of three techniques of chest compression counting on the quality of CPR and rescuer fatigue. Method: Inthis clinical trial, 30 ...
متن کاملContinuous chest compression cardiopulmonary resuscitation training promotes rescuer self-confidence and increased secondary training: a hospital-based randomized controlled trial*.
OBJECTIVE Recent work suggests that delivery of continuous chest compression cardiopulmonary resuscitation is an acceptable layperson resuscitation strategy, although little is known about layperson preferences for training in continuous chest compression cardiopulmonary resuscitation. We hypothesized that continuous chest compression cardiopulmonary resuscitation education would lead to greate...

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...

We present optimal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) technique based on body weight using optimal control theory. The validated blood circulation model of CPR has been modified for various body weights by the scaling law. The external chest and abdomen pressures are chosen as controls and the goal is to maximize the mean systemic perfusion pressure (SPP). The numerical results show that four ...
