Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation by Jon-Emile S. Kenny, MD The first time I performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation [CPR] on a patient was in the emergency department of Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto, Canada; it was certainly an indelible moment in my training. As an intern, and especially as medical consult at Bellevue Hospital in New York City, I was involved in the resuscitative efforts of countless patients and this continued during my fellowship at Stanford. Throughout these years I’ve found that the physiological nuances of CPR are important for all resuscitationists to recognize in an effort to improve care of the pulseless patient.
