title: Arterial blood pressure differences between AutoPulse™ and Lucas2™ during mechanic cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
abstract: We present a 39-year-old patient under constant mechanical CPR with an arterial line in place. The use of AutoPulse™ resulted in higher arterial pressures than the use of LUCAS2™.
