duty cycle

French translation: Phase de compression

Medical - Medical (general) / Resuscitation
English term or phrase: duty cycle
My sentence (describing a simulator): "Designed to facilitate a 50/50 duty cycle during chest compressions".

Je comprends le sens global de "duty cycle" (Duty cycle is the portion of time spent in compression relative to total time of the compression–decompression cycle), mais je bute sur un terme validé ou largement employé en réanimation pour le traduire. Merci d'avance !

cycle de service


Explanation:
tradooit

In this resuscitation step, the oxidant flow rate can be temporarily increased by increasing a duty cycle of an air compressor by approximately 50% for a duration of between approximately 5 to 10 seconds.

Au stade de réanimation, on peut augmenter provisoirement le débit d'oxydant en augmentant un cycle de service d'un compresseur d'air d'environ 50 % pour une durée d'environ 5 à 10 secondes.

Explanation:
À ma connaissance, il n'existe aucune traduction officielle du terme "duty cycle" en français. Il s'agit du ratio de compression thoracique.

La traduction que je propose est celle choisie par certains services préhospitaliers d'urgence au Québec. Au Canada on parle aussi de "taux de RCR", RCR désignant la réanimation cardiorespiratoire.

Example sentence(s):
  • Le ratio de compression thoracique le plus élevé possible durant tout le temps de la réanimation (duty cycle)

Where did you find out that "duty cycle" =
