New American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines urge emergency personnel to change the way they treat sudden cardiac arrest (SCA).
The new guidelines, designed to help improve CPR performance, resulted from studies showing that "blood circulation increases with each chest compression in a series." Furthermore, it "must be built back up after interruptions." This calls for faster, deeper, uninterrupted chest compressions.
One piece of equipment that may help is the ZOLL AutoPulse automated CPR device. The only device of its kind, it is designed to help improve blood flow to the heart and brain during SCA by delivering the type of continuous CPR compressions the AHA is calling for-without interruption or fatigue.
