A case of congenital diaphragmatic eventration on the right and central tendinous portion with accessory hepatic lobe causing direct compression of the right heart is presented. We have performed the video assisted thoracoscopic plication of the right hemidiaphragm and eliminated the mass effect of the accessory hepatic lobe.

Heart related special images are classified as Cardiac US, XA, CT, MRI. Several Problem is caused by image compression, control and medical support point, so most big hospitals have created a Cadiac PACS differentially in past years. For this reason, create a conflict in inner colleague and patient, protector that result from 2 data processing server operating independently in 1 medical center area. For this reason, we sugges an alternative model of best medical control process together with understand the current situation on medical facility.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of levels of education on ground reaction force and center of pressure parameters during chest compression resuscitation. Method: Twenty male university students were divided into two groups; certified group (CG, n=10) and non-certified group (NCG, n=10). Two force plates were used to measure ground reaction force and center of pressure parameters during 30 times (three trials) chest compression resuscitation. Independent t-tests were used to compare ground reaction force and center of pressure parameters between two groups. An alpha level of 0.05 was used in all tests. Results: All chest-compression time parameters (total time, 1 systolic time, and diastolic time) in CG were significantly shorter than those in NCG (p<.05). Fy of the diastolic and Fz of the systolic in CG revealed significantly the larger GRF values and Fy of the systolic in CG showed significantly the smaller GRF value (p<.05). The standard deviation of Fz of the systolic and diastolic within the subject during 30 times chest-compression resuscitation revealed significantly the smaller values in CG (p<.05). Conclusion: First, CG performed chest compressions efficiently at an appropriate rate compared to NCG. Second, CG showed lower Fx and Fy values in both the mediolateral and anteroposterior axes compared to NCG, which reduced unnecessary chest-compression force consumption and minimized the movement in patients with cardiac arrest. Third, CG showed high Fz value of the systolic and low Fz value of the diastolic. Based on this, chest compression resuscitation was performed to increase the survival rate of cardiac arrest patients.

This study is to find out the effectiveness by adult CPR method of a single rescuer. For patients with acute cardiac arrest, CPR is the only first aid, and chest compression is the most important of these techniques. The subjects of this study were freshman, 120 subjects who did not learn CPR, and for data analysis, the SPSS 22.0 Version was used. The accuracy of chest compression site selection was significantly higher in the upper part of the two fingers in the pit of the stomach(p<.001), and the ease was also high(p<.001). In the case of the general public, they select the chest compression area easily and quickly, it turns out that it is easier to designate the landmark toward the pit of the stomach. In the future, through various job groups, research to select the chest compression site is needed, and additional studies should be conducted to confirm the maintenance and accuracy during chest compression.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the cardiopulmonary resuscitation skills and teamwork of nurses in simulated cardiac arrests in the hospital. Methods: A descriptive study was conducted with 35 teams of 3 to 4 registered nurses each in a university hospital located in Seoul. A mannequin simulator was used to enact simulated cardiac arrest. Assessment included critical actions, time elapsed to initiation of critical actions, quality of cardiac compression, and teamwork which comprised leadership behavior and communication among team members. Results: Among the 35 teams, 54% recognized apnea, 43% determined pulselessness. Eighty percent of the teams compressed at an average elapsed time of $108{\pm}75$ seconds with 35%, 36%, and 67% mean rates of correct compression depth, rate, and placement, respectively. Thirty-seven percent of the teams defibrillated at $224{\pm}67$ seconds. Leadership behavior and communication among team members were absent in 63% and 69% of the teams, respectively. Conclusion: The skills of the nurses in this study cannot be considered adequate in terms of appropriate and timely actions required for resuscitation. Future resuscitation education should focus on improving the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation including team performance targeting the first responders of cardiac arrest.

Cardiac arrest is a series of conditions that occur when the heart is stopped, regardless of the cause. Cardiac arrest due to heart disease is included in the cause of death in korea every year and is unpredictable. One of the only ways to save a patient's life when a cardiac arrest is cardiopulmonary resuscitation is to maintain circulation through this procedure. The visual information is transmitted to the brain through the optic nerve. Among them, the mittor can see its movement and its shape, and it can be used for correction and analysis. Therefore compared the quality of chest compressions with visual information using mirrors. There was a significant difference in the mean depth of chest compressions($48.93{\pm}6.76$, $53.86{\pm}4.56$, <0.001), and there was also a difference in compression to relaxation ratio($0.87{\pm}0.13$, $0.96{\pm}0.10$, <0.002). There was also a significant difference in attitude awareness($4.93{\pm}0.85$, $8.14{\pm}1.38$, <0.001).

PC Skillreporting feedback during cardiopulmonary resuscitaion would improve the performance of chest compression and ventilation during cardiac arrest. BLS skills were measured using Laerdal Skillreporter manikin(Laerdal, Norway) connected to a Laerdal PC Skillreporting system. Ventilation volume, chest compression accuracy, velocity of compression, depth of compression, hand position and chest recoil were measured between the two groups. Ventilation volume was significantly higher in the experimental group than that of control group(p<0.002). Chest compression depth was significantly higher in experimental group than that of control group(p=0.000). The quality of CPR can be improved by the use of PC Skillreporting system.

Tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonic valve is a rare cardiac malformation. The most significant symptoms during early infancy are secondary to bronchial compression resulting from the dilated pulmonary arteries. The clinical diagnosis was confirmed by echocardiography, cardiac catheterization and cardioangiography. A case of TOF with absent pulmonic valve was successful operated upon without insertion of the pulmonic valve. The narrow pulmonic valve annulus was enlarged with a transannular pericardial patch graft. The postoperative course was uneventful.

Left main bronchus compression occasionally occurs in patients with cardiac disease. A 19-month-old female patient weighing 6.7 kg was admitted for recurrent pneumonia and desaturation. S he had an atrial septal defect (AS D) with a right aortic arch. Her left main bronchus had been compressed between the enlarged right pulmonary artery (RPA) and the descending thoracic aorta for 14 months. We conducted ASD closure and RPA anterior translocation via sternotomy. The left main bronchus compression was relieved despite the medium-term duration of compression.

Cardiac arrest is a series of conditions occur when the heart is stopped, regardless of the cause. one of the only ways to save a patient's life in the event of cardiac arrest is cardiopulmonary resuscitation, which is very important beacause it can maintain circulation through this technique, and high-quality CPR affects the survival rate and neurological prognosis of the patient. For infant cardiopulmonary resuscitation, use two finger to compress the chest. Hower, this method can be diffcult to reach the chest commpressions recommended by the American Heart Association because of the anatomically increased fatigue of the fingers and diffculty of vertical pressure. The study aims to verify the effects of new chest compressions in the implementation of chest compressions during infant cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The study also showed singnificant differences in chest depth and average rate of pressure(p<0.001). Based on the results of this study, we can see that the accuracy of the new chest compressions during infant cardiopulmonary resuscitation is increased, and the depth of chest compressions is improved, improving the quality index of chest compressions.
