We recently did a wee on All things Defibrillation with Sheldon Cheskes. It sparked a ton of discussion and we got a bunch of questions. I got Shel back on the line to discuss…
@DrCheskes
Dr. Cheskes has COI: he is on the speakers' bureau of Zoll, received a Zoll Medical Honorarium for CPR Quality and Ventilation during Cardiac Arrest, and received grant funding for studies from Laerdal and Zoll.
It messes up the impedance measurements from the 2 machines and risks defib damage
