Abstract
This is the first Cochrane Corner in the International Journal of First Aid Education, provided by Cochrane First Aid. It summarizes the findings of a Cochrane systematic review that compares the effectiveness of continuous versus interrupted chest compression cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in case of non-asphyxial out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The review was developed by the Cochrane Emergency and Critical Care Group and is published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2017, Issue 3, DOI: 10.1002/14651858.CD0010134 (see www.cochranelibrary.com for information).
