New CPR research suggests something that goes against common sense.  What is it?  Well, let's start out by asking a question.  In what position would offer the patient the best cardiac circulation and flow to the brain when performing CPR?  a) supine, b) shoulders raised 30 degrees, c) shoulders raised 90 degrees, d) both legs elevated 30 degrees?  To get the answer you'll need to listen to the webcast.  I must admit, this was one of the more fascinating interviews I've ever done.  It's worth a few minutes of your time.

This new CPR revelation was brought to my attention by Dr. Joseph Holley, an expert in CPR resuscitation known worldwide.  He is also the EMS Medical Director for the State of Tennessee and EMS Medical Director at Memphis Fire Dept. 

If you are like me, and thought the mechanics, adjuncts, and delivery to CPR couldn’t be improved much more after all the other improvements we have seen over the years, well, think again.
