Background To evaluate, how the influence of different with and without a support stool, impacts chest compressions on the dental chair. Methods Experiments were conducted on CPR training manikin on a dental chair. A stool was placed under the backrest of a dental chair to stabilize it. Chest compressions were performed for 5 minutes with or without a stool. Six values in chest compressions and the degree of fatigue were measured. Results According to the analysis of the quality of chest compressions without a stool or with a stool under the dental chair. The mean chest compression depth of With (57.29 ± 6.24mm) was significantly deeper than that of Without (53.86 ± 8.48 mm; p < 0.001). The mean chest compression rate and total chest compressions of With were significantly higher than that of Without. QCPR score of With (94.28 ± 10.57) was significantly higher than that of Without (72.0 ± 46.66; p < 0.001). The rating of perceived exertion of With (6.75 ± 1.20) was significantly lower than that of Without (8.75 ± 0.66; p < 0.001). Only the chest compression fraction and the chest compression rebound rate does not reach a significant difference. Conclusions The use of a support stool improved the quality of chest compressions on the dental chair and reduced rescuer fatigue. To perform effective CPR on a dental chair, it is important to stabilize the chair against chest compressions. Clinical relevance: Effective chest compressions could be performed in dental chairs by using a stool when cardiac arrest occurs during dental treatments.

“…For many types of dental chairs, we found that vertical displacement was signi cantly reduced by using a stool under the shoulder rather than directly under the chest compression site. 17 However, the quality of chest compressions and rescuer fatigue during CPR using this method have not been studied in detail.…”

Compression-Only Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Automated External Defibrillator Course for Primary School Students: A Malaysian Pilot Study

et al. 2022

The Malaysian national school curriculum currently lacks resources and tools to enforce CPR education. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of a compression-only cardiopulmonary resuscitation and automated external defibrillator course among primary school students to increase their knowledge and technical skills and improve their attitudes. A quasi-experimental study was conducted using a pre–post non-equivalent design involving 38 students aged 10–12. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and automated external defibrillator (AED) knowledge, technical skills, and attitude towards CPR were assessed in a post test with three-month follow-up. Results of the MANOVA analysis showed significant differences in the level of knowledge (F = 10.29, p < 0.001) and attitude (F = 13.87, p < 0.001) based on the students’ age group at the time of the post test. The proportion of students who passed the technical skills component differed significantly by age (χ2 = 12.12; p = 0.002) and BMI (χ2 = 6.34; p = 0.041). No significant decay was reported in the total mean scores for knowledge, technical skills, and attitude (F = 0.727, p = 0.54) at 3-month follow-up. The course helped students perform CPR and utilize AED effectively while promoting a positive attitude with up to 3 months of retention, demonstrating the feasibility of extending the course within the Malaysian primary school curriculum.
