Chest compression during sustained inflation versus 3:1 compression-to-ventilation ratio during neonatal cardiopulmonary resuscitation of asphyxiated piglets
When a baby is born without enough oxygen, every second counts. Doctors and nurses jump into action, performing newborn CPR — chest compressions and small breaths — to try to restart the baby’s heart and breathing. Right now, international guidelines recommend a 3:1 compression-to-breath ratio , meaning caregivers give three quick chest compressions followed by one breath . But some researchers are exploring whether there’s a better way. 💡 A New Idea: Continuous Compressions
