Drowning: a review of epidemiology, pathophysiology, treatment and prevention.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:The ability of T-piece resuscitators to deliver consistent peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) and positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) during real and simulated neonatal resuscitation has been well described. The Neopuff (Fisher & Paykel Healthcare, Auckland, New Zealand) has been the device used for nearl...

abstract：:Transthoracic impedance (TTI) is an important determinant of success in defibrillation. Low TTI increases transmyocardial current and therefore increases the chance of depolarising a critical mass of myocardium. A major component of TTI occurs at the paddle-skin interface and is minimised by pressure applied to the de...
