Methods Twenty professional lifeguards (10 men, 10 women) conducted 3 tests: a baseline test of 5 minutes of CPR and 2 water rescues, 1 without rescue equipment (NRE), and the other with fins and rescue tube (FRT). They also had to perform 5 minutes of CPR after each rescue. Time and distance of the rescues, physiological parameters (blood lactate concentration and heart rate), and quality of CPR were analyzed. Results CPR quality worsened by 26 to 28% (P < .001) after rescue. However, there were no differences using FRT. The use of rescue equipment reduced the time (FRT: 216±57 seconds; NRE: 319±127 seconds; P < .001) and distance covered (FRT: 265±52 m; NRE: 326±41 m; P < .001). No differences were found in lactate levels between FRT and NRE just after the rescues, but there were some after 5 minutes of subsequent CPR (FRT: 10.7±2.2 mmol/L; NRE: 12.6±1.8 mmol/L; P < .001). Comparing women with men, we found significant differences in lactate concentrations only in FRT (women: 9.6±1.4 mmol/L; men: 8.1±1.2 mmol/L; P = .031). Conclusions The use of fins and rescue tube provides a comprehensive benefit in an aquatic emergency. However, FRT did not have any effect on the quality of the postrescue CPR. date: 2017 date_type: published publication: Wilderness & Environmental Medicine volume: 28 number: 3 pagerange: 176-184 pages: 0 id_number: doi:10.1016/j.wem.2017.03.013 refereed: TRUE issn: 1080-6032 official_url: http://doi.org/10.1016/j.wem.2017.03.013 num_pieces: 0 gscholar_impact: 0 gscholar_datestamp: 0000-00-00 00:00:00 access: open language: en citation: Artículo Materias > Educación física y el deporte Universidad Europea del Atlántico > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés Objective To analyze the influence of fins and rescue tube use in a water rescue, assessed by time and distance to salvage position, physiological parameters, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
