History of cardiopulmonary resuscitation and role of professor P. Safar
KOSTOHRYZOVÁ, Barbora
The thesis deals with the history of urgent resuscitation and with the life and work of Professor Peter Safar. In the first part of the thesis, the first attempts of urgent resuscitation are described. The second part of the thesis focuses on life and work of Professor Peter Safar, the Austrian doctor with Czech ancestors. The thesis discusses the first attempts that were not based on scientific knowledge, mainly because of the lack of the knowledge about the anatomy and physiology. Another aspect that slowed down the development in discovering new facts about human body was religion. Because of the religion people believe in afterlife that is why they could not manipulate with the body after death nor even dissect the body. But thanks to the experience from past we could learn a lot to move forward and fully understand the complex needs of the patient. Today, each five years the recommended processes how to do an urgent resuscitation are published by the European commission for resuscitation which consists of algorithms based on the evidence based medicine. The theoretical kind of work was chosen for this thesis. The objective of the thesis is to analyse the development of the techniques of urgent resuscitation and to show the role of Professor Peter Safar in this development. In the conclusion of the thesis there are two charts showing the most important facts, which are placed in a list of attachments. The first chart sums up the history of urgent resuscitation from the oldest found notes about resuscitation. The second one presents the work of Professor Peter Safar.
