Background:
This study compared outcomes of abdominal lifting and
compression cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ALP-CPR) with standard
CPR (STD-CPR).
Materials and Methods:
Patients with cardiac arrest seen from April
to December 2014 were randomized to receive standard CPR or ALP-
CPR performed with a novel abdominal lifting/compression device. The
primary outcome was return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).
Results.
Patients were randomized to receive ALP-CPR (_ = 40) and
STD-CPR (_ = 43), and the groups had similar baseline characteristics.
After CPR, 9 (22.5%) and 7 (16.3%) patients in the ALP-CPR and STD-
CPR groups, respectively, obtained ROSC. At 60 minutes after ROSC, 7
(77.8%) and 2 (28.6%) patients, respectively, in the ALP-CPR and STD-
CPR groups survived (_ = 0.049). Patients in the ALP-CPR group had a
significantly higher heart rate and lower mean arterial pressure (MAP)
than those in the STD-CPR group (heart rate: 106.8 versus 79.0, _< 0.001;
MAP: 60.0 versus 67.3mmHg, _ = 0.003). The post treatment PCO2 was
significantly lower in ALPCPR group than in STD-CPR group (52.33 versus
58.81, = 0.009). PO2 was significantly increased after ALP-CPR (45.15
to 60.68, _< 0.001), but it was not changed after STDCPR. PO2 after CPR
was significantly higher in the ALP-CPR group (60.68 versus 44.47, _<
0.001). There were no differences between genders and for patients who
are > 65 or ≤ 65 years of age.
Conclusions:
The abdominal lifting and compression cardiopulmonary
resuscitation device used in this study is associated with a higher survival
rate after ROSC than standard CPR.
Vivian Liu has completed her PhD from South-
ern Medical University (China), major in Bio-
chemistry & Molecular Biology. Now she is the
director of Research Administration & Interna-
tional Collaboration of People’s Hospital Affili-
ated to Henan University of Chinese Medicine.
She has published 3 papers on oral cancer in
English and Chinese. As one of the new mem-
bers in team, she is trying to make abdominal
lifting and compression CPR well known around
the world.
