Cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the rat

Abstract: A standardized method of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in rodents has been developed for anesthetized, mechanically ventilated rats. Ventricular fibrillation was induced and maintained by an alternating current delivered to the right ventricular endocardium. After 4 min of ventricular fibrillation, the chest was compressed with a pneumatic piston device. Eight of 14 animals were successfully resuscitated with DC countershock after 6 min of cardiac arrest. In confirmation of earlier studies from our laboratorie… Show more

“…The most difficult skill to learn is the chest compressions themselves as it is difficult to deliver compressions at the needed rate without increasing pressure to injurious levels. Mechanical resuscitators have been devised and used in our lab and others 16 but to date no mechanical resuscitator for the mouse has produced acceptable survival.…”

“…The need to maintain the current to induce VF is not ideal and raises concerns of potential injury to the myocardium. Indeed minor thermal injury at the site of current delivery was recognized in the original study, and noted that it could be minimized by reducing the current to the minimum requirement during the 3 min interval needed to induced self-sustained VF 4 . In addition, the electrical current unintendedly triggers skeletal muscle contraction, which could contribute to lactic acid production.…”

“…The rat model of closed chest cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) described here has played an important role. The model was developed in 1988 by Irene von Planta -a research fellow at the time -and her collaborators 4 The model simulates an episode of sudden cardiac arrest with resuscitation attempted by conventional CPR techniques and thus includes induction of ventricular fibrillation (VF) by delivering an electrical current to the right ventricular endocardium and provision of closed chest CPR by a pneumatically driven piston device while concomitantly delivering positive pressure ventilation with oxygen-enriched gas. Termination of VF is accomplished by transthoracic delivery of electrical shocks.…”
