Back pressure arm pull method
The back pressure arm pull method is a historical ventilation technique . Intermittent pressure on the thorax (exhalation) and subsequent arm movement (inhalation) should ensure adequate lung ventilation. The basic idea of the method goes back to Holger Nielsen . Variants were developed under different names as early as the 19th century, such as the New Year's Eve method. A pictorial representation of two variants can be found in "Electrical protection in 132 images" from 1931 by Stefan Jellinek . They persisted into the 20th century, for example in the instructions of the East German People's Police .
In the range of methods used in today's airway management , this technology no longer has any significance.
