Does CPR actually produce blood flow?
We’ve been taught that when we perform high-quality chest compressions, we’re circulating blood. But is that always true?
In this episode of the ACR Moonshot Podcast, Billy Croft and Joe Powell challenge one of the most basic assumptions in cardiac arrest resuscitation: that chest compressions automatically equal meaningful blood flow.
CPR creates pressure—but pressure alone doesn’t guarantee that blood is reaching the brain and heart where it matters most.
Billy and Joe break down the physiology behind CPR and explore how compression fraction, ventilation, intrathoracic pressure, interruptions in compressions, and the pressure gradients we create during resuscitation can determine whether we are actually producing forward blood flow.
This conversation challenges us to stop looking at CPR simply as a procedure and start looking at what we're really trying to accomplish: perfusion.
Because in cardiac arrest, doing CPR isn't enough.
We have to create flow.
Protect the Gradient.
