Design Details

  • Observational Models: Cohort
  • Time Perspectives: Retrospective

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Manuel chest compression
Manuel chest compressions will be handled by human efforts.
Other: Manuel chest compressions by human efforts
In this way chest compressions will be handled by humans themselves.
Mechanical chest compression
In the study, chest compression in the mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation group was performed with the Lund University Cardiopulmonary Assist System (LUCAS) Chest Compression System (LUCAS 2).
Device: LUCAS™ 2 Chest Compression System
LUCAS is a portable device designed to rule out the problems encountered during manual chest compression, capable of performing standard and continuous chest compressions at a depth of 4-5 cm and at least 100 times per minute.
