- The 3-phase model of sudden cardiac arrestThe course from sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) to death follows a pathophysiological process that affects the effectiveness of the interventions. Numerous studies demonstrate that…
- The physiology of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)The forces that drive coronary and cerebral perfusion, and ventilation of the lungs during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) differ substantially from normal circumstances. The…
The chain of survival in sudden cardiac arrest
Time is the most critical factor for survival in cardiac arrest. Life-saving interventions must be initiated momentarily to maximize the probability of survival. Several actions…
