Evolution and new perspective of chest compression mechanical devices

摘要: Cardiac arrest is a major concern in health care, owing to its high incidence and mortality rates. Since the development of external cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), there has been little advancement nonpharmacologic therapies that have increased survival rates associated with cardiac arrest. Consequently, much interest new techniques improve efficacy CPR, particularly devices. Initially, many devices developed were not considered functional failed gain acceptance clinical setting. Recently, however, several which progressed administration CPR garnered In this article we will briefly review some more common mechanical increase safety administration.
