환자가 죽음에 임박했을 때 환자, 보호자, 의사 사이에서 심폐소생술에 대한 논의는 피할 수 없는 주제이다. 환자가 회복 불가능한 말기의 암환자인 경우에는 환자의 품위 있는 죽음을 고려하여 심폐소생술을 시행하지 않음(Do-not-resuscitate, DNR)을 결정하게 된다. 그러나 DNR에 대한 선택은 환자와 보호자의 심폐소생술과 DNR의 의미 및 그 결과에 대한 이해를 바탕으로 한다. DNR에 대하여 환자, 보호자, 의료진이 상담을 할 때는 환자의 질환이 더 이상 치료가 불가능하며, 심폐소생술이 환자의 생명을 연장시키는 것이 아니라 죽음의 과정을 연장시키는 것이며, 심폐소생술 이후에 삶의 질이 급격히 나빠질 수 있는 상황이라는 합의가 필요하다. 충분한 이해는 환자 또는 보호자가 품위 있는 죽음을 위한 DNR을 선택하도록 한다. 국내에서는 DNR 자체 보다는 이미 생명유지장치를 가지고 있는 환자에서의 생명유지장치의 제거에 대한 법적인 문제가 2차례 발생하면서 사회적으로 품위 있는 죽음에 대한 일반 대중의 관심이 이전보다 증가하였다. 환자와 의료진을 대상으로 한 설문에서는 DNR에 대한 인식과 의지가 80년대에 비해 2000년대 초반에 이르러 상당히 증가하였으나, 실제 의료 현장에서는 DNR의 결정에 있어 환자가 직접 관여를 하는 경우는 많지 않았고 DNR 작성 시점과 사망 시점과의 시간 간격이 1주 이내로 환자가 관여를 하거나 임종시기의 의료를 결정하기에는 너무 짧은 문제가 있었다. 이러한 문제는 조기 완화의료의 확산을 통하여 개선이 가능할 것으로 생각된다. 일부에서는 DNR이라는 용어보다는 자연적인 죽음을 허용함(Allow-Natural-Death)이라는 용어로 바꾸어서 설명하는 것이 이해를 돕고 선택의 갈등을 줄인다는 보고를 하여 DNR 논의와 결정에 있어서 적절한 시기 이외에도 환자와 보호자에게 많은 어려움이 있다는 것을 보여 주고 있다. DNR은 말기암환자에서 품위 있는 죽음을 위해 고려해야 하는 사항이며, 임상에서 DNR이 잘 시행되도록 임상적, 제도적 노력이 필요하다.

As technology advances rapidly, emergency medical dispatching systems must also advance. Optimal emergency medical dispatching requires the courage to practice medicine at dispatch. Modern emergency medical dispatch provides appropriate resource responses with the use of an (Advanced Medical priority Dispatch System(AMPDS) in U.S.A. The AMPDS is a systematic protocol for all aspects of the dispatch process. Based on the AMPDS chief complaint list, we initiated a basic design on pre-arrival instruction protocol and completed the scripted pre-arrival instruction protocol, using Cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) protocol. Implementation of this study creates computerized emergency medical dispatching system for future enhancements, such as the AMPDS.

Purpose: This study aimed to develop 360° virtual reality videos and common videos for cardiac arrest recognition. Methods: A sequential mixed methods study was conducted, using qualitative interviews (with a total of seven experts) and a quantitative survey. Results: First, the cardiac arrest situation should be developed within 2-3 minutes after witnessing the patient collapse, for each of the four cardiac arrest videos about apnea, gasping, seizure, gasping, and seizure. Second, the education program should be designed so that the education on cardiac arrest recognition can proceed before CPR practice begins. Conclusion: 360° virtual reality videos and common videos for cardiac arrest recognition can play an important role in the education of the general public about cardiac arrest experience.

Objectives : To save the lives of patients with cardiac arrests, CPR must be performed rapidly and precisely. Regarding its critical necessity, there is a growing tendency to encourage whomever witnesses the cardiac arrest to perform basic CPR. However, the attitude toward basic CPR nor its current state of education in Korean Oriental Medical arena, which is one of the dual axes unique to Korean medical system, are not known. This is a kind of pilot study to research attitudes toward and the educative effect of basic CPR among oriental medical doctors in Korea. Methods : We carried out surveys and tests targeting nineteen apprentice doctors working in Dongguk University Ilsan Oriental Hospital, who were receiving training for 'AHA BLS course for healthcare providers', on the attitude toward and educative effect of basic CPR before and after the education. Results : The pre-educational survey showed that most of the participants felt the necessity to be trained in the BLS course, were not confident about performing CPR, and not well-acquainted with the whole process of performing CPR. After education, however, none of them responded with a lack of confidence to perform basic CPR, and the score of the confidence to perform basic CPR was significantly increased, too (from $2.05{\pm}0.71$ to $4.05{\pm}0.40$, n=19, p<0.001). Moreover, all of them answered they were satisfied with this BLS course, and it aroused their sense of responsibility as oriental medical doctors. All the participants passed the exam, and their average score for BLS scheme performance was $28.2{\pm}1.3$. Conclusions : It is necessary, in the future, to set up a management system for intensive, regular and continuous reeducation and expand the research on the perception and attitude targeting larger numbers and more multilevel groups of oriental medical doctors.

Purpose: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) prevents tissue necrosis of the brain and cardiac muscle in the cardiac arrest patient and requires exact skills in order to increase survival rate. Through comparison of the training effects of feedback manikin and non-feedback manikin, this study present the effective CPR device to CPR instructors. Method: This CPR course for 80 students by using Resusci Anne $SkillReporter^{TM}$ (RASR; Laerdal Medical, Stavanger, Norway) and Actar 911 $Squadron^{TM}$ (A911; Vital Signs, New Jersey, USA) held on December 22, 2009. Thirty seven students and two assistants were placed in one laboratory, there were five RASR manikins which provide the LED performance indicator, not the metronome. Forty two students and two assistants were placed in the other laboratory, there were 20 A911 manikins which don't provide any feedback indicator. Chest compression scores and ventilation compression scores obtaining from two groups were analysed statistically by using independent t-test. Results: Chest compression scores, average depth (mm) was 37.5 in RASR and 41.80 A911 (p=.004), too depth (#) was 2.8 in RASR and 19.4 A911 (p=.005), average number per min (#/min) was 64.4 in RASR and 68.2 A911 (p=.038), wrong hand position (#/min) was 10.9 in RASR and 30.8 A911 (p=.040). Four items that showed better scores in group RASR had statistically significant difference. Ventilation compression scores, percent correct (%) was 40.6 in RASR and 20.6 A911 (p<.001), number correct (#) was 4.7 in RASR and 2.1 A911 (p=.002), too fast (#) was 0.9 in RASR and 2.9 A911 (p=.003), average volume (ml) was 536.5 in RASR and 707.1 A911 (p=.011). Also, three items that showed better scores in group RASR had statistically significant difference. Conclusions: Regarding the positive effect of CPR training feedback, comparison between the real-time visual feedback manikin (RASR) and the non-feedback manikin (A911) showed that RASR had better results than A911 in chest compression except average number per min (it means that we need harder chest manikin) and ventilation. Verification of the training effect in the real world such as CPR outcomes is also necessary. A proper application of manikin in training circumstances and research on retention of CPR skills will be needed.

Objective: This paper reports the status of the advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) according to the guidelines by residents belonging to other departments other than the department of emergency medicine. The differences in status between the junior group and senior group was also investigated according to grades of residents. Methods: The ACLS performance for in-hospital cardiac arrest cases of one academic hospital, except for the cases occurring in intensive care unit between November 2015 and October 2017, were analyzed retrospectively. Data included the characteristics of residents, patients' outcomes, ACLS performance, and conventional treatment having discordance with the ACLS guidelines. Leaders during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) were divided into a junior group and senior group. Results: A total of 152 cases were enrolled in this study. Of these, 131 cases (86.2%) showed at least one treatment with inconsistency from the guidelines and the incidence of discordant treatment was similar in the two groups (55 [85.9%] vs. 76 [88.4%], P=0.657). Implicit use of sodium bicarbonate was more frequent in the senior residents group (odds ratio [OR], 3.04; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.36-6.81). On the other hand, no use of a defibrillator was less frequent in the senior residents group (OR, 0.14; 95% CI, 0.03-0.81). Conclusion: In both groups, the rate of discordance with the ACLS guidelines during CPR were high. The rate of implicit use of sodium bicarbonate and no use of defibrillator were significantly different in the two groups. A customized education strategy for ACLS is needed for each group.

Purpose: This retrospective multicenter study analyzed trauma patients who underwent resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) in the Republic of Korea. Methods: This study was conducted from February 2017 to May 2018 at three regional trauma centers in the Republic of Korea. The patients were divided into two groups (cardiopulmonary resuscitation [CPR] and No-CPR) for comparative analysis based on two criteria (complication and mortality) for logistic regression analysis (LRA). Results: There were significant differences between the CPR and No-CPR groups in mortality (p=0.003) and treatment administered (p=0.016). By LRA for complications, total occlusion has significantly lesser risk than intermittent or partial occlusion in both univariate (odds ratio [OR] 0.06, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.00-0.36, p=0.01) and multivariate (OR 0.05, 95% CI 0.00-0.38, p=0.01) analyses. The Rescue had a higher risk than the Coda or Reliant in univariate analysis (OR 4.91, 95% CI 1.14-34.25, p=0.05); however, it was not statistically significant in multivariate analysis (OR 6.98, 95% CI 1.03-74.52, p=0.07). By LRA for mortality, the CPR group was the only variable that had a significantly higher risk of mortality than the No-CPR group in both univariate (OR 17.59, 95% CI 3.05-335.25, p=0.01), and multivariate (OR 24.92, 95% CI 3.77-520.51, p=0.01) analyses. Conclusions: This study was conducted in the early stages of REBOA implementation in the Republic of Korea and showed conflicting results from studies conducted by multiple institutions. Therefore, additional research with more accumulated data is needed.
