Abstract

In chest compression for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), the lower half of the sternum is pressed according to the American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines 2010. These have been no studies which identify the exact location of the applied by individual chest compressions. We developed a rubber power-flexible capacitive sensor that could measure the actual pressure point of chest compression in real time. Here, we examined the pressure point of chest compression by ambulance crews during CPR using a mannequin. We included 179 ambulance crews. Chest compression was performed for 2 min. The pressure position was monitored, and the quality of chest compression was analyzed by using a flexible pressure sensor (Shinnosukekun™). Of the ambulance crews, 58 (32.4 %) pressed the center and 121 (67.6 %) pressed outside the proper area of chest compression. Many of them pressed outside the center; 8, 7, 41, and 90 pressed on the caudal, left, right, and cranial side, respectively. Average compression rate, average recoil, average depth, and average duty cycle were 108.6 counts per minute, 0.089, 4.5 cm, and 48.27 %, respectively. Many of the ambulance crews did not press on the sternal lower half definitely. This new device has the potential to improve the quality of CPR during training or in clinical practice.
