Popis: Abstract Our goal was to investigate the effects of head-thorax elevation (HUP) during chest compressions (CC) on lung ventilation. A prospective study was performed on seven human cadavers. Chest was automatically compressed-decompressed in flat position and during progressive HUP from 18 to 35°. Lung ventilation was measured with electrical impedance tomography. In each cadaver, 5 sequences were randomly performed: one without CC at positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) 0cmH2O, 3 s with CC at PEEP0, 5 or 10cmH2O and 1 with CC and an impedance threshold device at PEEP0cmH2O. The minimal-to-maximal change in impedance (VTEIT in arbitrary unit a.u.) and the minimal impedance in every breathing cycle (EELI) the) were compared between flat, 18°, and 35° in each sequence by a mixed-effects model. Values are expressed as median (1st–3rd quartiles). With CC, between flat, 18° and 35° VTEIT decreased at each level of PEEP. It was 12416a.u. (10,689; 14,442), 11,239 (7667; 13,292), and 6457 (4631; 9516), respectively, at PEEP0. The same was true with the impedance threshold device. EELI/VTEIT significantly decreased from − 0.30 (− 0.40; − 0.15) before to − 1.13 (− 1.70; − 0.61) after the CC (P = 0.009). With HUP lung ventilation decreased with CC as compared to flat position. CC are associated with decreased in EELI.
