    What is really interesting is doing CPR when a person/patient has full monitoring on.

    It is quite informative to watch people slavishly adhere to the 'recommendations' of the day when you have an arterial blood pressure monitor, and can actually see what effect your attempts at chest compressions are having in terms of circulation…

    Anyway, enough specialised chatter….

    Art lines tracings are cracking aren't they – you can really see how feeble a 5 foot girly HCAs chest compressions are at 60BPM compared to a strapping bloke at 100bpm!

    mebbe – but in the given scenario of the OP its the only tool in your tool box, so are you really gonna deny someone in cardiac arrest their only potential chance of NSR – because its not been taught.

    I know of several instances where its worked.

    I can't see the coroner critisizing it.

    Its referanceable:
