Abstract Background: Maintaining highly effective cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can be particularly difficult when artificial ventilation using a bag-valve-mask device, combined with chest compression have to be carried out by one person. The aim of the study is to compare the quality of CPR conducted by one paramedic using chest compression from the patient’s side with compression conducted from the ‘over-the-head’ position. Methods: The subject of the study were two methods of CPR – ‘standard’ (STD) and ‘over-the-head’ (OTH). The STD method consisted of cycles of 30 chest compressions from the patient’s side, and two attempts at artificial ventilation after moving round to behind the patient’s head. In the OTH method, both compression and ventilation were conducted from behind the patient’s head. Results: Both CPR methods were conducted by 38 paramedics working in medical response teams. Statistical analysis was conducted on the data collected, giving the following results: the average time of the interruptions between compression cycles (STD 9.184 s, OTH 7.316 s, p < 0.001); the depth of compression 50–60 mm (STD 50.65%, OTH 60.22%, p < 0.001); the rate of compression 100–120/min. (STD 46.39%, OTH 53.78%, p < 0.001); complete chest wall recoil (STD 84.54%, OTH 91.46%, p < 0.001); correct hand position (STD 99.32%, OTH method 99.66%, p < 0.001). A statistically significant difference was demonstrated in the results to the benefit of the OTH method in the above parameters. The remaining parameters showed no significant differences in comparison to reference values. Conclusions: The demonstrated higher quality of CPR in the simulated research using the OTH method conducted by one person justifies the use of this method in a wider range of emergency interventions than only for CPR conducted in confined spaces.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is another lifesaving technique which will increase the chances of survival after getting cardiac arrest but when done manually it comes with Many problems like knowledge about CPR technique amongst the general population and inability of human to provide CPR as per WHO guideline and as long it needed. The main objective is to make automated CPR device which will provide strokes on chest through motor best scotch yoke mechanism and will give artificial ventilation through resuscitation bag true motor base side crank mechanism with the pulse sensor which will monitor the pulse and give signal to start and stop CPR device. GSM module which will send emergency message to the near hospital after confirming cardiac arrest.

Introduction: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is the technique of life-saving procedure in that artificial ventilation uses external chest compressions to maintain circulation flow of the heart and oxygenation during cardiac arrest. Many peoples in the developed and developing countries have taken known education of Cardiopulmonary resuscitation training which was launched jointly by Universal Medical Assistance International Center. Objectives: 1. To evaluate the previous knowledge and skill regarding CPR among workers of ST Depot. 2. To evaluate effectiveness and correlation the post-test knowledge and skill score regarding CPR among workers of ST Depot. 3. To identify the association with the post-test skill score regarding CPR among workers of ST Depot. Methodology: In this study, will the effectiveness of simulation teaching regarding cardiopulmonary resuscitation the sample will be the 100 ST depot workers. The workers will select according to inclusion and exclusion criteria as well as the Purposive sampling technique. One group pre-test and post-test design. It will be conducted at State Transport Depot. Wardha Maharashtra, India respectively. The data will be collected by using questionnaires and an observational checklist for simulation teaching on cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Conclusion:  It is concluded that the effectiveness of simulation teaching on CPR was found to be effective in improving the knowledge and skill of workers of ST depot.
