The effect of thoracic dimensions on compression depth during cardiopulmonary resuscitation

Abstract: The effect of the dimensions of the thoracic cage on the resuscitation outcome of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) maneuvers has long been debated. In this study, the effect of changes in the rib cage dimensions on the achieved compression depth was investigated using finite element simulations. A total of 216 different rib cage geometry models were considered and, in each case, the result of applying different levels of compression force up to 600 N were simulated. The Haller Index of the rib cage is defin… Show more

“…Moreover, computational modeling allows for the evaluation of various wall mechanics and blood fow conditions, which are diffcult to achieve in traditional studies [7]. Additionally, computational simulations can be conducted with reduced costs and time, without exposing patients to potential risks associated with invasive procedures or drug administration [8,9].…”
