New treatment option for Pediatric Cardiac Arrest (Simulated)
Official title Effect of Bed Height on Chest Compression Quality and Provider Biomechanics During Pediatric CPR Simulation
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07329842
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- High-quality chest compressions are critical for outcomes after pediatric cardiac arrest, yet rescuer ergonomics and bed height may adversely affect compression quality and fatigue. This randomized crossover simulation study will evaluate how four different bed-height settings influence pediatric CPR quality and rescuer biomechanics.
