More compressions were delivered during minutes 1, 2, and 3 during CPR with the 30:2 tyle='font-style: italic'>C:tyle='font-style: italic'>V ratio (78 ± 29, 80 ± 30, 74 ± 26) than with the 15:2 tyle='font-style: italic'>C:tyle='font-style: italic'>V ratio (53 ± 24, 57 ± 24, 51 ± 26) (tyle='font-style: italic'>p < 0.001). Fewer pauses for ventilation occurred during each minute with the 30:2 tyle='font-style: italic'>C:tyle='font-style: italic'>V ratio (1.7 ± 1.2, 2.2 ± 1.2, 1.8 ± 1.0) than with the 15:2 tyle='font-style: italic'>C:tyle='font-style: italic'>V ratio (3.4 ± 2.6, 4.7 ± 7.2, 4.0 ± 2.9) (tyle='font-style: italic'>p ≤ 0.01). Degradation of the final ECG to asystole occurred less frequently after the protocol change (asystole pre 67.1%, post 56.8%, tyle='font-style: italic'>p < 0.05). The incidence of return of spontaneous circulation was not altered following the protocol change.
Retraining first responders to use a tyle='font-style: italic'>C:tyle='font-style: italic'>V ratio of 30:2 instead of the traditional 15:2 during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest increased the number of compressions delivered per minute and decreased the number of pauses for ventilation. These data are new as they produced persistent and quantifiable changes in practitioner behavior during actual resuscitations.
A group of international EMD specialists, researchers and professional association representatives analyzed available scientific data and considered variations in EMS systems, particularly those in Europe and North America.
Several recommendations were established: (1) to avoid confusion, bystanders already providing CPR should continue those previously learned methods; (2) following a sudden collapse unlikely to be of respiratory etiology, CCOIs should be provided when the bystander is not CPR-trained, declining to perform mouth-to-mouth ventilation or unsure of actions to take; (3) following 4 min of CCOIs, ventilations can be provided, but, for now, only at a compression–ventilation ratio of 100:2 until EMS arrives; (4) until more data become available, dispatchers should follow existing compression–ventilation protocols for children and adult cases involving probable respiratory/trauma etiologies; (5) EMD CPR protocols should account for EMS system features and receive quality oversight and expert medical direction.
This study evaluates how three common rescuer positions affect the kinematics of CPR and the force of delivered compressions.
Subjects were 18 health care providers experienced in CPR. Each participant performed CPR from three different positions: kneeling beside the Resusci® Anne manikin placed on the floor (F); standing beside the manikin placed on a Table 63 cm in height (H), and standing beside the manikin placed on a Table 37 cm in height (L). The compression to ventilation ratio was 15:2. CPR duration was 5 min for each position, with a rest period of 50 min in-between. The order of position was randomised. The manikin was equipped with a six-axial force load cell to collect 3D compression forces at a sampling rate of 1000 Hz. An eight-camera Motion Analysis Digital System was adopted to collect 3D trajectory information. Data were compared using crossover-design analysis of variance (tyle='font-style: italic'>p < 0.05 was regarded as statistically significant). Ratings of Perceived Exertion (RPE) were measured by modified Borg scale.
Significant differences were observed in the head, shoulder, lower trunk, hip and knee angles between the three methods. Lower trunk flexion angle (°) for H, L, and F were −14.52 ± 1.13, −28.83 ± 1.75, and 14.39 ± 1.14, respectively. Hip flexion angle for H, L, and F were −16.21 ± 3.30, −42.59 ± 4.75, and −47.39 ± 4.36, respectively. However, compression force (N) in H, L, and F were 455.8 ± 17.6, 455.7 ± 14.0, 461.5 ± 13.5, respectively (tyle='font-style: italic'>p > 0.05). Compression depths (mm) were: 43.5 ± 3.4, 42.0 ± 5.4, 44 ± 5.2, respectively (tyle='font-style: italic'>p > 0.05). Compression frequencies (times/min) were: 117.9 ± 12.4, 116.6 ± 13.4, 108.8 ± 11.7, respectively (tyle='font-style: italic'>p > 0.05). No differences were found between the three positions for RPE.
In this study, while the kinematics of CPR differed significantly with varying rescuer position, these differences did not affect the compression force, depth and frequency as performed by experienced providers.
