Hemodynamics, Survival and Neurological Function with Early versus Delayed Automated Head-Up CPR in a Porcine Model of Prolonged Cardiac Arrest

To determine if automated head up positioning, active compression-decompression cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and an impedance threshold device combined, termed automated head-up CPR (AHUP-CPR), should be initiated early, as a basic (BLS) intervention, or later, as an advanced (ALS) intervention, in a severe porcine model of cardiac arrest.
