Cpr

I am attending a resus module at uni, and they were talking about how research suggests that your dominant hand should be the one on the patients chest.

I never do CPR this way around, my dominant hand is on top, talking with a lot of other nurses, this seems to be the case, I think we've maybe trained our selves to do this, when we used to have to measure hand placement, tracing round the ribs.

Now we can just guess for the middle, I'm sure new commers to CPR will be using their dominat hand, but for many of us it seems to feel wrong.

Just wondered what everyone else does?

I go on my ILS update next month, and I'll try to practice both ways on 'annie'
