Episode description
Providing good, high-quality CPR with minimal interruptions and early defibrillation are two key interventions shown to improved cardiac arrest outcomes.
A training tool used in many CPR and ACLS classes is to use a song (or a song list) with a tempo of 100 to 120 beats per minute to help the person doing chest compressions maintain an adequate rate.
Characteristics of good songs that will help us.
Advantages & disadvantages of using a song during CPR.
Selected songs from various genres and time periods from AHA's "Don’t Drop The Beat" playlist on Spotify.
