Defibrillation pad placement accuracy among Advanced Life Support instructors: A manikin-based observational study examining experience, self-evaluation, and actual performance
Background: Ventricular fibrillation is common in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Early and effective defibrillation is important for their survival. Effective defibrillation depends highly on correct positioning of the defibrillation pads. Teaching this correctly by ALS instructors is...
