BLS CPR (AHA)

High chest compression fraction, or high ccf. It is the amount of time spent doing high quality chest compressions during a cardiac arrest resuscitation attempt.

By eliminating pauses during high-quality CPR

During... * intubation * rhythm analysis * pulse checks * compressor switched * defibrillation

1. compressors hover their hands over the chest, ready to begin compressions 2. advances providers check for pulse, precharge the defibrillator, & prepare to deliver a shock 15 seconds before pausing compressions at the end of each 2-minute cycle 3. swap compressors every two minutes, or earlier if compressor is fatigued, with the second compressor coming in from behind 4. Use a metronome (with AED, defibrillator, or mobile app)
