Key result
Average chest compression fraction reaches ~72% during cardiac arrest but drops with longer resuscitation duration.
Why the study?
The study aimed to determine the average chest compression fraction and its correlation with influencing factors to optimize blood flow during resuscitation.
Observational (n=50)
No
In a prospective observational study of 50 cardiac arrest patients, the average chest compression fraction was satisfactory at 71.66 ± 7.79, though it decreased with longer code durations and daytime events.
Observed CCF met targets in small cohort; leaves open whether factor optimization improves arrest outcomes.
A BSTRACT Background: The study aimed to determine the average chest compression fraction (CCF) and its correlation with influencing factors to optimize blood flow during resuscitation, aiming for a minimum of 60%. Materials and Methods: Prospective observational study on 50 cardiac arrest patients, analyzing chest compression fraction (CCF) and identifying associations using Spearman’s correlation coefficient and individual student t -tests. Results: The study revealed a satisfactory average Chest Compression Fraction (CCF) of 71.66 ± 7.79, with diabetes mellitus being the most prevalent medical condition, and no significant correlation between compression depth, rate, and recoil. Conclusion: The average cardiac arrest (CCF) in ED patients decreased with longer code durations, daytime events, defibrillator use, increased team members, male providers, and chest compressions.

Chanjal et al. (2024) conducted an observational in Cardiac arrest (n=50). Chest compression fraction (CCF) was evaluated on Average chest compression fraction (CCF). The average chest compression fraction (CCF) in cardiac arrest patients was 71.66 ± 7.79, decreasing with longer code durations, daytime events, and defibrillator use.
