| dc.description | This study employed a randomized cross-over design using 2 -conditions (AHA BLS CPR on a hard surface and AHA BLS CPR on a hospital mattress) for a total of 24 minutes each session. Participants were instructed to wear a VO2 Master analyzer mask while performing CPR (as defined by AHA guidelines for 2-rescuer CPR) on a QCPR Little Anne CPR mannequin during the testing sessions. Participants were assessed for Heart Rate average, VO2 difference (between min and max), Ve/VO2 difference, and FeO2 difference with the VO2 Master analyzer. Average Depth (mm) and Average Rate (cpm) were recorded using the QCPR mannequin. Additionally, participants were asked to rate their ratings of perceived exertion on a scale from 1 to 10 at the midpoint (12 min) and conclusion (24 min). | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation is the most important procedure to preserve life following cardiac arrest. However, less than 15% of people survive. A major contributor may be improper compressions during CPR related to the surface on which the patient is lying. METHODS. Thirty-four participants participated in a randomized cross-over design using 2 -conditions (AHA BLS CPR on a hard surface and AHA BLS CPR on a hospital mattress) for a total of 24 minutes. Participants were wore a VO2MasterPro analyzer mask while performing CPR on a QCPR Little Anne CPR mannequin. Participants were assessed for Heart Rate, VO2, Ve/VO2, and FeO2. Compression Depth (mm), Rate (cpm), and RPE. RESULTS. On a mattress instead of hard surface: *Heart rate average was 4bpm higher *Oxygen consumption was 15L higher *Expirations/Oxygen used was 3L higher *Expiatory oxygen was 0.7L less *CPR depth was 3.4 mm less *RPE was 0.5 points higher at the midpoint and 0.2 overall *DISCUSSION. We found that the energy expenditure and quality of compressions were all compromised when providers performed CPR on a hospital mattress instead of on a hard surface. Wallace et al. (2013) and Talikowska et al. (2015) found that the mean difference in compression depth between survivors and non-survivors was only 2 to 3 mm. CPR on a mattress decreases depth by 3.4mm. Additionally, it requires more energy and is more difficult to perform compressions. The added energy and effort of CPR on a mattress leads to reduced quality and endangers patients' lives. | en_US |
