Femoral artery collapse ratio as an indicator of chest compression quality during cardiopulmonary resuscitation in a porcine cardiac arrest model
Abstract:Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) quality is crucial for improving patient survival rates after cardiac arrest. This study aimed to investigate the usefulness of femoral artery collapse ratio (systolic diameter/diastolic diameter ratio) measurement using M-mode ultrasound versus end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) for the assessment of high-quality CPR in a porcine cardiac arrest model. A total of 10 male mongrel pigs (age range, 16–20 weeks; weight, 45–50 kg) were used. After anesthesia, the carotid artery was… Show more
