Item Utilidad del dispositivo automático cardio compresor en parada cardiaca en EH:RA(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2024) Arroyo Álvarez, Helen Nicolle; Delgado Erazo, María Camila; Díaz Molina, María Camila; López Guzmán, Carlos Alberto (Director)This review examines the utility of an automatic cardiocompression device versus manual compression during cardiac arrest in out-of-hospital transport. It emphasizes the importance of immediate resuscitation for patient survival and discusses the relative utility , challenges, and benefits of both approaches. Minimizing injury requires balancing the useful use of mechanical devices with associated challenges such as personnel training and protocol development. An extensive review of the scientific literature concluded that although mechanical devices provide constant pressure and prevent worker fatigue, they have not shown a significant increase in survival compared to manual compression. Further studies are recommended to determine the effectiveness of resuscitation techniques in out-ofhospital cardiac arrest. Objective: To review the scientific literature to find the effectiveness of an automatic cardiocompressor device. Methodology: Based on qualitative data, a literature review of scientific articles was carried out to analyze the effectiveness of cardiocompression devices. Results: The study investigated the authors' different perspectives and differences in the traditional method of resuscitation and its use in a mechanical method supported by cardiocompression equipment.
