The aim of this work is to explore whether CC quality differs between advanced life support (ALS) and basic life support (BLS) performed by two rescuers. Method: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was performed by two ambulance personnel in ten ALS and ten BLS manikin scenarios. Data from these scenarios were then compared with data on ten ALS cases from the clinical setting, all with non-shockable rhythms. Data from the first two 5-minute periods of CC were evaluated from impedance data (LIFEPAK 12 defibrillator monitors) using a modified Laerdal Skillmaster manikin. Quality parameters compared were: number of CC pauses (CCPs), total time of CC (%), number of CC given and CC rate/min. Results: During the first 5 minutes, the BLS manikin scenarios had the highest number of CCPs, 15 (14 - 16), compared with the ALS manikin scenario, 14 (13 - 15), and the clinical ALS cases, 12 (10 - 15). The BLS scenario also had the highest CCFs, 81% (77% - 85%), and number of CC, 450 (435 - 495), compared with the ALS manikin scenario, 75% (64% - 81%) and 400 (365 - 444) respectively, and the clinical ALS cases, 63% (50% - 74%) and 408 (306 - 489). The median rate of CC/min in the BLS scenario was 115 (110 - 120) compared with the ALS manikin scenario, 110 (106 - 115), and the clinical ALS cases, 130 (118 - 146). During the second 5-minute period, the BLS scenario had the highest number of CCPs, 16 (15 - 17), compared with 15 (14 - 16) for the ALS manikin scenario and 11 (11 - 12) for the clinical ALS cases. The CCF in the BLS setting was 79% (75% - 83%), and the number of CC 455 (430 - 480), compared with the ALS manikin scenario, 79% (74% - 84%) and 435 (395 - 480) respectively, and the clinical ALS cases, 71% (57% - 77%) and 388 (321 - 469) respectively. The median CC rate was 118 (113 - 124) for BLS, 111 (105 - 120) for ALS manikins and 123 (103 - 128) CC/min for clinical ALS cases. Conclusion: None of the groups being studied could deliver CC at a rate of 100 - 120 CC/min or a CCF of ≥80% over the whole 10-minute period in any of the resuscitation scenarios analyzed. However, BLS had the best compliance with CC quality recommendations according to the 2010 guidelines.展开更多

Participants and Methods: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was performed using a compression to ventilation ratio of 30:2 with both S-CC and L-CC. Quality parameters were collected using a modified manikin enabling impedance measurements. The evaluation was performed in two manikin scenarios: Scenario 1 evaluated ten minutes of CPR on the ground and Scenario 2 assessed six minutes of CPR in different settings relevant to work in the ambulance. Quality parameters compared were: time to apply LUCAS, hands-off fraction, number of correct chest compressions and the rate of compressions. Results: In Scenario 1 the hands-off fraction was higher when S-CC was performed (S-CC group 29% vs. L-CC 16%, P = 0.003). We found a higher number of chest compressions (S-CC = 913 vs. L-CC = 831, P = 0.0049) and a higher rate of chest compressions (S-CC = 118 vs. L-CC = 99, P < 0.0001) in the S-CC group. In Scenario 2 we noted a higher hands-off fraction for S-CC (39% vs. L-CC = 19%, P = 0.003), but a higher number of compressions given during S-CC ((n = 504) vs. L-CC (n = 396) P = 0.0002). Conclusion: Mechanical chest compression with the LUCAS 2TM device enables ambulance personnel to provide high quality chest compression even while transporting the patient.展开更多
