Background: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is a quick and immediate intervention to prevent death in a person who has suddenly suffered cardiorespiratory arrest. This study aims to investigate the results of cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the factors affecting it with emphasis on the cause of cardiac arrest and 1-year prognosis of the saved patients.
Methods: Materials and methods: This research is a retrospective descriptive-analytical study that was conducted for 24 months, from April 1, 2017 to the end of March 2018, in Shahid Mostafa Khomeini Hospital in Ilam, from July 2022 to September 2022. The necessary information was collected based on the data available in the patients' files. Data analysis was done using SPSS24 software.
Results: Out of 152 patients, 64(42.1%) were men and 88(57.9%) were women. The average in the group that had a successful CPR was 60.75 years and in the group that had an unsuccessful CPR was 68.27 years. 13.7% of all CPRs occurred during shift change. The number of CPR was 11 cases (7.2%) in changing night shift to morning, six cases (3.9%) in changing evening shift to night, and four cases (2.6%) in changing evening to night shift. Most of the patients who underwent CPR were patients with internal diseases.
Conclusion: In this study, the final success rate of CPR was close to other studies. These results indicate that performing CPR is considered at any time. However, the reasons for the failure of the rehabilitation operation should be looked for in other factors. These factors can include updating nursing and medical team’s knowledge in the field of resuscitation, experience and skills of the resuscitation team, and periodic training of the resuscitation team, which should be considered regularly in order to reduce unsuccessful cases.
