1
Q

Adult Cardiac Arrest (6)

A

*Confirm any criteria for death

  1. CABs/confirm no pulse
  2. Begin CPR

Q

Adult Post Resuscitation (8) after BLEACHO

A

Look for and follow appropriate protocol if any of the following are found:
STEMI/suspicion of MI= Adult suspected cardiac patient protocol (16)
Symptomatic Bradycardia= Adult Bradycardia protocol (15)
ROSC with antiarrhythmic given= Arrythmias are common and usually self limiting after ROSC and may not need further meds or drips. If arrhythmia persists follow appropriate rhythm protocol

Q

Adult Syncope/Pre-Syncope (13)

A

*Initial medical care
check the three ‘whys’
1. Cardiac monitor/12-lead
2. BGL check
-<60= adult diabetic emergency protocol
3. SBP >90?
yes= transport
no= IV NS 200ml increments, max 1L until SBP>90 and transport

Q 
Adult Bradycardia (15)
Unstable
A

Unstable: Signs of hypoperfusion or ALOC

  1. Atropine 1mg IV/IO q 3-5min
    - max 3 mg
  2. Transcutaneous pacemaker
    - rate 70
  3. While pacing, consider sedation with Versed 2.5mg slow IV/IO/IM/IN
  4. Transport
    - If pacing unavailable or not effective, call med control to order push dose epi (2mL q 3-5min)

Q

How to make push dose epi

A

Take a 10ml syringe with 9ml of normal saline. Into this syringe, draw up 1 ml of EPINEPHRINE (1mg/10ml) from the cardiac amp.
-Administer 1-2ml IV/IO every 2 minutes to maintain SBP > 90 and HR > 60
