Compression-Only Life Support (COLS) for Laypersons: A Practical Approach to Cardiac Emergency Management
Abstract: Hemodynamic tissue perfusion is regulated by the pumping heart; the specialized cardiac cells have an autorhythm property that enables the heart to beat throughout life. When the pumping capability of the heart diminishes due to tissue ischemia, it leads to dysfunction. Pathological factors result in a decreased supply of blood to cardiac cells. Coronary circulation is at risk of stenosis due to spasm, plaque, or sclerosis, causing tissue hypoxia, injury, …
