dc.description.abstractAim: The most common causes of blunt trauma are traffic accidents and falls from height. Thoracic region complications may be seen in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The aim of this study was to examine thoracic complications developing in cases applied with CPR following a fall from height with no direct chest trauma. Materials and Methods: The thoracic complications of CPR were examined in cases with CPR applied after a fall from height following the exclusion of cases where death occurred and an autopsy was performed. Results: Evaluation was made of 109 cases who met the study criteria, comprising 82 males and 27 females. Fractures of the sternum and costa were seen at a higher rate than reported in studies in literature. No statistically significant difference was determined between the genders in respect of fracture rates. As age increased, there was found to be a statistically significant increase in fractures. Conclusion: This is the first study to have examined CPR complications following a fall from height. Just as there are direct effects of trauma on the body in general, there are also known to be some indirect effects. The results of this study showed an in increase in thoracic region complications developing after CPR applied to cases who developed cardiac arrest following a fall from height.en_US
