| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated whether drinking alcohol has adverse effects on the ability to return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) by cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) after cardiac arrest. We used a rat model of cardiopulmonary arrest. Three minutes after cessation of natural breathing by hypoxic exposure, CPR with chest compression and oxygen administration were performed to the model rats. There were no significant difference of the rate of ROSC between a group of ethanol administration and a group of saline administration. However, the time between start of hypoxic exposure and cessation of natural breathing in a group of ethanol administration was significantly shorter than that in a group of saline administration. This phenomenon may affect that the rate of ROSC in ethanol groups and a control group are similar.
