Aim: The purpose of this study is searching the effect of BMI and BMW on the quality of CPR and the state of exhaustion applied by the professionals in the emergency department.
Material and Method: The software of the CPR education manikin was used in order to count and measure the number and the depth of the compressions and their correspondence to each other during the first and the second minutes of the procedure. Five cycles of chest compressions were asked to do from the rescurers. Each rescuer has handed the task of applying pressure over to his/her following team member after two minutes. Borg tiredness scores were asked to the rescuers and recorded at the end of each-minute period.
Results: The mean depth of pressure, the number of pressure attempts applied and the number of superficial compressions of the participants who were grouped due to their BMI showed no statistically meaningful difference. Both in the mean values of Borg tiredness scores which were calculated at the end of the first and second minutes; the group with lower BMW showed higher exhaustion significantly and this group couldn’t make sufficient compressions by means of depth and number, and also the latter showed more exhaustion compared to the first.
Conclusion: It is considered that choosing the health workers who are going to apply CPR among individuals with higher BMW or encouraging the workers in those departmnets who frequently apply CPR to be more interested in sports activities could be a promoting factor for having good quality CPR and reducing mortality as well.
