Data represent the cumulative 30-second values during the 10 minutes of basic life support or the 10 minutes of advanced life support and are shown as mean ± SD.
ALS = advanced life support; BLS = basic life support; Comp/min = compressions per minute; CPP = cerebral perfusion pressure; CVP = central venous pressure; DBP = diastolic blood pressure; ETCO2 = end-tidal carbon dioxide; ICP = intracranial pressure; MAP = mean arterial blood pressure; SPP = systemic perfusion pressure.
