    Objective: To systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of manual versus mechanical chest compressions in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Material and Methods: This research study is both qualitative and quantitative, with a systematic review, meta-analysis, experimental, and cohort design. The following databases were used as instruments: Pubmed, Journal Archives, and Ovid Insights. Results: A search of 10 scientific articles was conducted, which were considered the population for the study. Of these, 5 (50%) were systematic reviews, 3 (30%) were meta-analysis cases, 1 (10%) was experimental, and 1 (10%) came from cohort cases. 60% of the articles demonstrate the effectiveness of manual versus mechanical compressions in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, 30% show the effectiveness of mechanical compressions in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, and 10% of the studies were inconclusive. Conclusions: Based on the totality of the articles presented, 6 out of 10 conclude that manual compressions are more effective than mechanical compressions in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Of these articles, 4 out of 10 conclude the effectiveness of mechanical compressions compared to manual, and 1 out of 10 articles is inconclusive.
