Emerson's idea is to lift the patient's hips off the ground at regular intervals, thus lowering his diaphragm and making him breathe in. Exhalation...
...reported an experiment, directed by Chicago Physiologist A. C.

The conclusion: a combination of Schaefer's push and Emerson's pull is best. "Those who now are indoctrinated with the Schaefer prone pressure method," wrote Dr. Ivy's associates, "can double the ventilating efficiency ... by lifting the hips 4 inches 12 times each minute, alternating with the push on the lower part...
