Chest Compression Fraction CCF vs CodeBeat

As you know Interruptions in chest compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can decrease the survival rate in out of hospital cardiac arrest. Perfusion stops when CPR stops. The chest compression fraction (CCF) is the amount of time spent administering chest compressions during cardiac arrest. If you can obtain a CCF above 80% you can dramatically increase the survival rate. The CCF Calculator works in conjunction with a compression rate of at least 100/min, assuring adequate compression depth and recoil. Thats why we also included a metronome for 100 and 120 beats per minute.

CodeBeat is a CPR metronome and ACLS guide built for physicians leading codes. Unlike other metronomes for chest compressions, CodeBeat is the only one that also includes distinct ventilation tones, helping prevent one of the most common mistakes in CPR—hyperventilation.  Other features: - Tracks epinephrine and rhythm check intervals.  - Quick reference action list for immediate actions and reversible causes of cardiac arrest - Educational handbook covering ACLS rhythms, H&T differentials, and leadership scripts for running the room.  This app was made by Joseph Yasmeh MD. It is for educational/training use only and not a diagnostic or treatment tool.
