Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate how using fins and a rescue tube affects lifeguard efficiency in water rescues, considering factors like time, distance, and CPR quality.
- The research involved 20 lifeguards performing rescues with and without equipment, revealing that using fins and a rescue tube significantly decreased rescue time and distance.
- While the quality of CPR decreased after rescues regardless of equipment used, the fins and rescue tube did not improve CPR quality post-rescue but led to lower blood lactate levels in female lifeguards compared to males.
