Characterization of Infant Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Delivery with Range Sensor Feedback on Performance

Cardiac arrest (CA) in infants is an issue worldwide, which causes significant morbidity and mortality rates. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a technique performed in case of CA to save victims’ lives. However, CPR is often not performed effectively, even when delivered by qualified rescuers....

description Cardiac arrest (CA) in infants is an issue worldwide, which causes significant morbidity and mortality rates. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a technique performed in case of CA to save victims’ lives. However, CPR is often not performed effectively, even when delivered by qualified rescuers.

Currently, no feedback device is available to guide learners through infant CPR performance in contrast to a number of adult CPR feedback devices. This study presents a real-time feedback system to improve infant CPR performance by medical staff and laypersons using a commercial CPR infant manikin.
