Summary

The aim of this observational study is to investigate how ventilations is given during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) given by advanced life support providers (ALS). A portable device capable of detailed measurments of ventilation will be used when ventilating patients suffering cardiac arrest.

The main objective of the study is to describe the ventilatiosn given in terms of volume, frequency and pressure, both overall and during different CPR modes and when using different methods to handle the patients airway.

Conditions

  • Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest
  • Pulmonary Ventilation

Interventions

DEVICE

Fluxmed GrH portable pneumotachograph

Fluxmed GrH portable pneumotachograph is used to measure the given ventilation. It is placed on the chosen airway adjunct and passively measures ventilation parameters such as volumes, and flow.
