Overview
Brief Summary
Context: Chest compressions quality is known to be essential in cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Despite a known harmful effect of chest compressions interruptions, current guidelines still recommend provider switch every 2 minutes. Feedback impact on chest compressions quality preservation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation remains to be assessed.
Study design: simulated prospective monocentric randomized crossover trial.
Participants and methods: Sixty five professionals rescuers of the pre-hospital care unit of University Hospital of Caen (doctors, nurses and ambulance drivers) are enrolled to performed continuous chest compression on manikin (ResusciAnne®, Laerdal), twice, with and without a feedback device (CPRmeter®). Correct compression score (the main criterion) is defined by reached target of rate, depth and leaning at the same time (recorded continuously).
Hypothesis: Feedback device preserve chest compression quality above the 2 minutes recommended switch over during cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Correct compression score
Time Frame: Day 0
Correct compression score is defined by reached target of rate (between 100/min and 120/min), depth (between 50 mm and 60 mm) and leaning (less than 2500g) at the same time
Secondary Outcomes
- Decrease time of 30% of correct compression score(Day 0)
- Chest compression depth(Day 0)
- Percentage of chest compression without leaning(Day 0)
- Percentage of correct chest compression rate(Day 0)
- Participants' fatigue (Borg's scale)(Day 0)
- Chest compression rate(Day 0)
- Percentage of chest compression with correct depth(Day 0)
