dc.description.abstractPurpose: The aim of this project was to identify a method to measure ventilation during continuous chest compressions CPR that will improve outcomes for resuscitation attempts on out of hospital cardiac arrest patients Hypothesis: It is possible to identify ventilation waveforms using defibrillator bioimpedance and adequate ventilation prior to placement of an advanced airway during continuous chest compressions is associated with better outcomes. Design: Defibrillator files from 4 Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium sites were examined for evidence of ventilations. The number of ventilations, placement of an advanced airway, return of spontaneous circulation, initial heart rhythm, and ventilation rates were recorded. Results and Conclusion: It is feasible to identify ventilations during continuous chest compressions CPR using bioimpedance. There was no significant difference between ventilation before and after an advanced airway was placed. The association between ventilation and outcome is undetermined.
