SCCM Resource Library-Chest Compression Release Velocity and Associated Clinical Outcomes in Pediatric Cardiac Arrest

Chest Compression Release Velocity and Associated Clinical Outcomes in Pediatric Cardiac Arrest

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The speaker, Tommy Rappold, discusses the concept of chest compression release velocity (CCRV) and its association with clinical outcomes in pediatric patients during cardiac arrest. CCRV is the maximum velocity during chest compression release measured in millimeters per second. Previous studies in adults have suggested that faster CCRV is associated with improved survival and neurological outcomes. However, research on CCRV in pediatrics is limited. Rappold's study analyzed data from pediatric patients who experienced in-hospital cardiac arrest and found that faster CCRV was associated with better return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in children aged 3 to 12. However, there was no significant difference in survival or neurological outcomes. Further research with larger sample sizes is needed to better understand the relationship between CCRV and pediatric cardiac arrest outcomes.
