Firefighters test CPR in full gear: does equipment hinder Life-Saving efforts?
NCT ID NCT06986200
Summary
This study aimed to understand how wearing full firefighting protective gear affects the quality of chest compressions during CPR. Thirty-eight firefighters performed simulated CPR in teams while wearing their standard equipment, testing different rotation schedules. Researchers measured how deep and effective the chest compressions were to see if the gear makes CPR harder to perform correctly.
