Pediatric cardiac arrest is a fatal emergent condition that is associated with high mortality, permanent neurological injury, and is a socioeconomic burden at both the individual and national levels. The aim of this study was to test in an infant manikin a new chest compression (CC) technique ("2 thumbs-fist" or nTTT) in comparison with standard 2-finger (TFT) and 2-thumb-encircling hands techniques (TTEHT).
This was prospective, randomized, crossover manikin study. Sixty-three nurses who performed a randomized sequence of 2-minute continuous CC with the 3 techniques in random order. Simulated systolic (SBP), diastolic (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and pulse pressures (PP, SBP-DBP) in mm Hg were measured.
The nTTT resulted in a higher median SBP value (69 [IQR, 63-74] mm Hg) than TTEHT (41.5 [IQR, 39-42] mm Hg), (P < .001) and TFT (26.5 [IQR, 25.5-29] mm Hg), (P <.001). The simulated median value of DBP was 20 (IQR, 19-20) mm Hg with nTTT, 18 (IQR, 17-19) mm Hg with TTEHT and 23.5 (IQR, 22-25.5) mm Hg with TFT. DBP was significantly higher with TFT than with TTEHT (P <.001), as well as with TTEHT than nTTT (P <.001). Median values of simulated MAP were 37 (IQR, 34.5-38) mm Hg with nTTT, 26 (IQR, 25-26) mm Hg with TTEHT and 24.5 (IQR,23.5-26.5) mm Hg with TFT. A statistically significant difference was noticed between nTTT and TFT (P <.001), nTTT and TTEHT (P <.001), and between TTEHT and TFT (P <.001). Sixty-one subjects (96.8%) preferred the nTTT over the 2 standard methods.
The new nTTT technique achieved higher SBP and MAP compared to the standard CC techniques in our infant manikin model. nTTT appears to be a suitable alternative or complementary to the TFT and TTEHT.
小儿心脏骤停是一种致命的紧急情况,死亡率高,常伴有永久性神经损伤,对个人和国家都是社会经济负担。本研究的目的是在婴儿人体模型中测试一种新的胸外按压(CC)技术(“双拇指-握拳”或nTTT),并与标准的双指(TFT)和双手环绕双拇指技术(TTEHT)进行比较。
这是一项前瞻性、随机、交叉人体模型研究。63名护士以随机顺序对这三种技术进行了2分钟连续胸外按压的随机序列操作。测量模拟的收缩压(SBP)、舒张压(DBP)、平均动脉压(MAP)和脉压(PP,SBP-DBP),单位为毫米汞柱。
nTTT产生的SBP中位数(69[四分位间距,63-74]毫米汞柱)高于TTEHT(41.5[四分位间距,39-42]毫米汞柱),(P<0.001)和TFT(26.5[四分位间距,25.5-29]毫米汞柱),(P<0.001)。nTTT时模拟的DBP中位数为20(四分位间距,19-20)毫米汞柱,TTEHT时为18(四分位间距,17-19)毫米汞柱,TFT时为23.5(四分位间距,22-25.5)毫米汞柱。TFT时的DBP显著高于TTEHT(P<0.001),TTEHT时也高于nTTT(P<0.001)。nTTT时模拟MAP的中位数为37(四分位间距,34.5-38)毫米汞柱,TTEHT时为26(四分位间距,25-26)毫米汞柱,TFT时为24.5(四分位间距,23.5-26.5)毫米汞柱。nTTT与TFT之间(P<0.001)、nTTT与TTEHT之间(P<0.001)以及TTEHT与TFT之间(P<0.001)存在统计学显著差异。61名受试者(96.8%)更喜欢nTTT而不是两种标准方法。
在我们的婴儿人体模型中,新的nTTT技术与标准胸外按压技术相比,能产生更高的SBP和MAP。nTTT似乎是TFT和TTEHT的合适替代或补充方法。
