Bed height may make or break child CPR success
NCT ID NCT07329842
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how the height of a hospital bed affects the quality of CPR given to children. 25 pediatric doctors will each perform chest compressions on a child-sized manikin at four different bed heights. The goal is to find the bed height that helps doctors give the best compressions without getting too tired. This is a simulation study, not a real emergency, and aims to improve training and equipment setup.
