This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of chest compressions performed in dental chairs (DCs) with 2 different structural support designs and on the floor. This randomized prospective study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of chest compressions (rate and depth) using a feedback device and a manikin reporting system. The mean anterior chest wall motion measurements captured using the feedback device were significantly increased in the DCs than on the floor, whereas the percentage of net chest compression depths ≥5 cm as measured using the manikin reporting system were significantly decreased in the DCs than on the floor. These findings suggest that cardiopulmonary resuscitation performed in a DC without the use of a supporting stool or stiff backboard is not likely to be effective even if a DC design that incorporates a supportive steel column is utilized.
本研究旨在探讨使用 2 种不同结构支撑设计的牙科椅(DC)和地面上进行的胸外按压的特点。这项随机前瞻性研究旨在比较使用反馈设备和人体模型报告系统进行的胸外按压(速率和深度)的效果。使用反馈设备捕获的平均前胸部壁运动测量值在 DC 中比在地板上显著增加,而使用人体模型报告系统测量的净胸按压深度百分比≥5cm 在 DC 中比在地板上显著降低。这些发现表明,即使使用包含支撑钢柱的 DC 设计,如果不使用支撑凳或硬背板,在 DC 中进行的心肺复苏术也可能无效。
