The adequacy of oxygenation during cardio-pulmonary resuscitation.
A series of experiments with eight dogs was carried out to determine the efficiency of oxygenation during cardio-pulmonary resuscitation. High oxygen tensions very near to normal levels were found in most dogs, and this was attributed mainly to normal lung function previous to cardiac arrest.
