Summary

The current cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) guidelines recommend that the heart rhythm be checked every two minutes during CPR for cardiac arrest patients. Also it is very important to stop compressing the chest in less than 10 seconds when checking heart rhythm and pulse.

However, manual palpation, which is used as a standard for return of spontaneous circulation(ROSC), has been reported that the accuracy is not high in several studies. It is quite often necessary to perform pulse palpation for longer than the 10 second recommended by the guidelines to make a judgment.

Recently, a case study was published in which the presence of spontaneous circulation was confirmed by evaluating the carotid artery compressibility and pulsatility with an ultrasound probe when checking the rhythm of cardiac arrest patients. However, there has been no clinical study on actual cardiac arrest patients.
