Abstract

Background and purpose: Tissue perfusion during Basic Life Support (BLS) resuscitation depends on hemodynamic support provided by chest compressions. However, it remains unclear how the ischaemia/reperfusion phenomena influences hemodynamic stability during prolonged BLS. We aimed to study the arterial pressures and brain tissue perfusion in a porcine model of cardiac arrest (CA) and BLS.
