Brief Summary

Excessive minute ventilation for patients who experience cardiac arrest may cause pulmonary injury and decrease the overall effectiveness of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Although clinicians are trained with the correct technique for manual ventilation, evidence still shows that clinicians tend to deliver a higher respiratory rate than recommended during CPR. Little is known about tidal volume delivery during CPR; either the amount of volume give or even the impact of tidal volume on the effectiveness of CPR. There are many factors that may influence variations of tidal volumes and RR during CPR. These factors include distractions in the room (noise/cross talk), inability to assess tidal volume delivery, anxiety, and stress of the situation. This study will evaluate tidal volume and respiratory rate (RR) delivery during a simulated CPR situation. Participants will be asked to provide care for an intubated adult patient in cardiac arrest, which will include all components of advanced cardiac life support training.
