| Popis: | There are several complications associated with automated mechanical CPR (AM-CPR), including tension pneumothoraces. The incidence of these complications and the risk factors for their development remain poorly characterized. Tension hemopneumothorax is a previously unreported complication of AM-CPR. The authors present a case of a suspected tension hemopneumothorax that developed during the use of an automated mechanical CPR device. |
