  • High Performance CPR Update
    High Performance CPR Update Page | 1 Final Revision 8/8/2012 As part of our ongoing Quality Assurance in Cardiac Arrest incidents, Skagit County EMS under the direction of Dr. Don Slack, MPD is making changes to the way that ALS and BLS providers perform CPR. Overview: CPR quality has a dramatic impact on pt survival when done according to these guidelines. Minimal breaks in compressions, full chest recoil, adequate compression depth and adequate compression rate are all components of CPR that an increase survival from sudden cardiac arrest. Together these components go together to create High Performance CPR (HP CPR). Roles: As a rule for the unconscious, unresponsive, pulseless patient the FIRST person to the patient starts compressions. SECOND person does defibrillation (If there are only 2 responders to begin with, ventilations should begin after the rhythm analysis and shock if indicated). THIRD person should start ventilating the patient, placing a King Airway as soon as is practical. A timekeeper needs to be assigned to ensure high quality CPR, minimal interruption and help track the ALS interventions. Principles of HP CPR 1. EMT’s own CPR!! 2. Minimize interruption in CPR at all times, use a timekeeper 3. Ensure proper depth of compressions (>2 inches) 4. Ensure full chest recoil/decompression 5. Ensure proper chest compression rate (100-120/min) 6. Rotate compressors at least every 2 minutes 7. Do not interrupt compressions to ventilate patient, even if an advanced airway is not placed 8. Hands off the chest only during analysis and shock delivery, hover hands over chest during shock delivery and be ready to resume compressions 9.

Following a major disaster, CERT volunteers will be called upon to Triage and provide basic first aid care to members of the community that sustain injury of all types and levels of severity. Policy: CERT Medical Operations will function and provide care consistent with national CERT Training guidelines. The CERT Volunteers will function within these guidelines. Structure: CERT Medical Operations (CERT MED OPS) reports to Operations Section. CERT MED OPS Volunteer Requirements CERT MED OPS volunteers will Triage and assess each victim, as needed, according to the RPM & Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment (START) techniques that they learned during CERT training. They will treat airway obstruction, bleeding, and shock by using START techniques. They will treat the victims according to the CERT training guidelines and CERT skills limitations. CERT MED OPS volunteers will also evaluate each victim by conducting a Head-To-Toe Assessment, and perform basic first aid in a safe and sanitary manner. CERT MED OPS volunteers will ensure that victim care is documented so information can be communicated to advanced medical care when and as it becomes available. CERT MED OPS volunteers understand that CPR is not initiated in Disaster Medical Operations e.g., mass casualty disaster situations. The utmost of care and compassion will be undertaken with family members to assist them with their grieving process.

  • Capnography (ILS/ALS)
    Capnography (ILS/ALS) Clinical Indications: 1. Capnography shall be used as soon as possible in conjunction with any airway management adjunct, including endotracheal, Blind Insertion Airway Devices (BIAD) or Bag Valve Mask (BVM). 2. Capnography should also be used on all patients treated with CPAP or epinephrine for respiratory distress. 3. Acute respiratory distress. 4. Assisted ventilations. 5. Sustained altered mental status. Procedure: 1. Attach capnography sensor to the BIAD, endotracheal tube, or oxygen delivery device. 2. Note CO2 level and waveform changes. These will be documented on each respiratory failure, cardiac arrest, or respiratory distress patient. 3. The capnometer shall remain in place with the airway and be monitored throughout the prehospital care and transport. 4. Any loss of CO2 detection or waveform indicates an airway problem and should be documented. 5. The capnogram should be monitored as procedures are performed to verify or correct the airway problem. 6. Document the procedure and results on/with the Patient Care Report (PCR) and the Airway Evaluation Form. 7. In all patients with a pulse, an ETCO2 >20 is anticipated. In the post-resuscitation patient, no effort should be made to lower ETCO2 by modification of the ventilatory rate. Further, in post- resuscitation patients without evidence of ongoing, severe bronchospasm, ventilatory rate should never be < 6 breaths per minute. 8. In the pulseless patient, and ETCO2 waveform with an ETCO2 value >10 may be utilized to confirm the adequacy of an airway to include BVM and advanced devices when Sp02 will not register. Critical Comment: • When CO2 is NOT detected, three factors must be quickly assessed : 1.

Readjust as necessary. heart muscle. The heart normally maintains a CPP of 60 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) or more. During cardiac arrest, the CPP drops dramatically, threatening the heart muscle’s blood supply. As it can take Oxygenation with Ventilation some time to build up CPP again, interruptions to chest compressions should be minimized. To supply adequate concentrations of oxygen in the blood, ensure the patient is properly ventilated. Ventilations should be provided in The current American Heart Association Guidelines emphasize conjunction with mechanical chest compressions.
