When appropriate, potential modifications are proposed for individual species. Although many of the basic principles of CPCR are applicable to any species, the important physiologic differences when applying these principles to special species are discussed. This article outlines the basic principles of CPCR, including the current recommendations from the human International Guidelines 2000 Conference on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care. Although there are numerous publications on CPCR in humans and small animals, there is little written on CPCR in special species. Neither SCV nor the vest techniques of CPR appear better for survival or neurologic outcome than standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation performed with the Thumper.Ĭardiopulmonary-cerebral resuscitation (CPCR) is a comprehensive term used to describe both the basic principles of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) as well as advanced life support and postresuscitation care. No differences in immediate resucitation, 24-hour survival, or neurologic deficit scores at 24 hours were found. However, coronary perfusion pressure was not different among the three mechanical methods. The SCV CPR technique also produced significantly higher aortic diastolic pressure and right atrial diastolic pressure than either of the other methods ( P <. SCV CPR and vest CPR produced significantly greater aortic and right atrial systolic pressures than Thumper CPR ( P <. Ventricular fibrillation was induced electrically, and after 3 minutes of no intervention, one of the three types of mechanical CPR was performed for 17 minutes. A group of 30 large mongrel dogs was divided equally among Thumper ® CPR, simultaneous compression and ventilation (SCV) CPR, and vest CPR.
Twenty-four-hour survival without neurologic deficit was the goal.
Three currently available mechanical devices for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) were compared using a canine cardiac arrest model.
