Maintaining a Chest Compression Fraction (CCF) Above 80%

Even good CPR is far less efficient at circulating blood than a functioning heart. The indicators of high-quality CPR that were identified at the 2012 AHA CPR Quality Summit in order of importance include:Chest compression fraction (CCF);Chest compression rate;Chest compression depth;Allowing for full recoil; andAdequate ventilations.Using real-time feedback devices and ETCO2 to assess CPR quality.
