Abstract
Background
Cardiovascular diseases are considered as the most prevalent serious disease in developed countries, and act as the number one cause of death among men and women in all ages and from all races.
Aim
The present research aims at determining the relationship between risk factors of cardiovascular diseases and consequences of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
Methods
The present study is a retrospective analytic-cross sectional research performed on 100 patients in need for CPR (successful and unsuccessful) during March 2017 – June 2017. As research instrument, a pre-designed checklist was used including demographic information, clinical and medical information, and the information related to modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors of cardiovascular diseases.
Results
Obtained results indicated that, 57.1% of the successful CPR cases were administered on men, while 55.1% of unsuccessful CPR cases were administered on women. The patients diagnosed with myocardial infarction were in further need for CPR (rate of successful CPR: 66.7%, and rate of unsuccessful CPR: 61.9%). Significant associations were found between CPR duration, post-CPR survival time (survival time after CPR), systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, triglyceride level, diabetes, fasting blood sugar level, and body mass index, in one hand, and type of CPR, on the other hand (p < 0.05).
Conclusion
Results of the present research showed that, there is a significant relationship between modifiable risk factors of cardiovascular diseases and consequences of CPR.
