Manual palpation is still the gold standard for assessment of pulse presence during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for professional rescuers. However, this method is unreliable, time-consuming and subjective. Therefore, reliable, quick and objectified assessment of pulse presence in cardiac arrest situations to assist professional rescuers is still an unmet need. Accelerometers may present a...
We evaluated the ability of a previously derived outcome predictor to discriminate between ECG segments corresponding to return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) or not in validation data from 136 patients with cardiac arrest. The new data used for validation were totally independent from the predictor derivation data used in the original study.Features corresponding to those used in the development...
We report a new method of interrogating the surface ECG signal using techniques developed in the field of wavelet transform analysis. Previously unreported structure within the ECG during ventricular fibrillation (VF) is found using a high-resolution decomposition of the signal employing the continuous wavelet transform. We believe that wavelet transform methods could lead to the development of powerful...
