Previous research has examined the utilisation of musical cues to improve the performance of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) delivered in training environments. We postulated a musical cue that is both contemporary and transcends cultures may improve CPR performance. Our aim was to establish whether chest compressions are performed with improved rate and depth if a song of a fixed beat (PinkFong's 'Baby Shark' with a tempo of 115 beats per minute (bpm) and 15 beats in each verse) is played to a healthcare professional immediately before undertaking CPR compared to whale noises (a non-metronomic rhythm). 58 Participants of a paediatric conference (majority doctors) were randomly assigned to listen to a minute of Baby Shark (28) or whale song (30) and then undertake a minute of CPR. There was no significant difference in the mean compression rate between the Baby Shark and control groups, with the groups achieving 121 and 125 bpm, respectively (p=0.18). In relation to compression depth within the target zone, the Baby Shark group had more compressions completed within the target zone (55%) than the control group (39%) although this difference was not significant (p=0.08). Listening to Baby Shark prior to undertaking simulated CPR does not improve overall performance, but there is a potential tendency to improve adequate compression depth which may be beneficial in training exercises.
先前的研究探讨了利用音乐提示来提高在训练环境中进行心肺复苏(CPR)的表现。我们推测一种既现代又超越文化的音乐提示可能会改善心肺复苏表现。我们的目的是确定与鲸鱼叫声(一种非节拍器节奏)相比,在进行心肺复苏之前立即向医护人员播放一首固定节拍的歌曲(每分钟115拍(bpm)且每节有15拍的PinkFong的《小鲨鱼》)时,胸部按压的速率和深度是否会得到改善。58名参加儿科会议的参与者(大多数是医生)被随机分配听一分钟的《小鲨鱼》(28人)或鲸鱼之歌(30人),然后进行一分钟的心肺复苏。《小鲨鱼》组和对照组之间的平均按压速率没有显著差异,两组分别达到121和125 bpm(p = 0.18)。关于目标区域内的按压深度,《小鲨鱼》组在目标区域内完成的按压次数(55%)比对照组(39%)多,尽管这种差异不显著(p = 0.08)。在进行模拟心肺复苏之前听《小鲨鱼》并不能提高整体表现,但有改善足够按压深度的潜在趋势,这在训练练习中可能是有益的。
