Abstract
Transoesophageal echocardiography was used to investigate the haemodynamic profile achieved during active compression-decompression cardiopulmonary resuscitation in humans. The mechanism of antegrade blood flow achieved by ACD-CPR is consistent with the cardiac pump theory. Improved right heart compression, antegrade blood flow patterns and left ventricular filling were observed in some patients during ACD-CPR.Entities:
