Evaluation of fatigue, load and the quality of chest compressions by bystanders in hot and humid environments
there was no significant difference in the depth of chest compression of paramedic students under the conditions between WBGT 31℃ and WBGT 21℃. For secondary outcomes, the lactate and fatigue of bystanders increased under WBGT 31℃ compared to WBGT 21℃. Further research is needed on CPR in hot and humid environments.
