If Immediate Bystander CPR is not provided, a Cardiac Arrest Victim’s Chances of Survival Fall 7%-10% For Every Minute of Delay Until AED Use

How Could This Be Effective?
Circulation of Blood Has Now Been Shown To Be Most Significant Intervention
Cardiac Arrest Patients Have 3-7 Minutes of Oxygen Already in System
This Course Will Include Both Compressions and Rescue Breaths
Compressions Only CPR?
Compressions/Breathing (30:2) CPR is Recommended For Adults Whose Cardiac Arrest Was Caused From a Respiratory Problem and Always For Infants and Children
Compressions Only CPR vs 30:2
Compressions Only CPR is a Good Option For Adults in Cardiac Arrest When The Airway Was Not an Issue and/or There Are Concerns About Giving Rescue Breathing

AED Use
AED=
Automated External Defibrillator
Keys To Using An AED
Turn on AED
Follow Given Instructions
Continue CPR Until "Analyzing Heart Rhythm"
80% Survival Rate When Used Within 3 Minutes of Cardiac Arrest
Choking (Adults and Children)
Heimlich
1-2 Inches Above Belly Button
Repeated Quick Inward/Upward Compressions
Lower To Ground If/When Patient Becomes Unconscious
Activate 911 System
Check For Foreign Object
Begin CPR Beginning With Compressions
Look For Foreign Object Prior To Breathing For Patient
Choking (Infants)
Back Blows Then Chest Thrusts - 5 & 5
If/When Infant Becomes Unconscious,
Perform CPR (30 Compressions and 2 Breaths)
Check For Foreign Object Between Compressions and Breaths
Call 911 After 2 Minutes of Treatment
Key Steps:
Choking
Special Considerations:
Pregnant / Larger Patients
Perform Heimlich Under Armpits to Compress Chest
Choking Without Bystander
Perform Heimlich on Self
Use Corner of Table or Chair Back to Perform Heimlich
Fractures
Keep patient and injury still
Splint fracture in position found
Cardboard, magazine, sticks, etc
Secure splint to injury using rags or other material above and below fracture
Apply ice but avoid direct contact with skin
Call for advanced care
Asthma
Normal Use of Inhalers (Albuterol, etc) Usually Corrects Discomfort
Calming Patient
Further Treatment Should Be Provided When Patient Explains That Inhaler Has Not Relieved Discomfort
Shock
Provide Support/Care That We Can Offer
Warmth
Elevate Legs
Control Bleeding
Fainting
Multiple Causes
Looks Worse Than It Actually Is
Help Resolve Cause
Seizures
Multiple Causes
Care Consists of Protection of Patient
Evaluate Patient Condition and Treat Accordingly
If Stable -> Recovery Position Until Help Arrives
Diabetic Emergencies
Normal Blood Glucose Levels= 70-110
2 Types:
Type 1: Insulin Injections are common; Low Sugar Levels
Type 2: High Sugar Levels
Signs-
Nausea, Weakness, Dizziness, Lower Level of Consciousness, Thirst
Care: When In Doubt- Give Sugar
Only Conscious Patients Get Food/Drink
Hot / Cold Emergencies
(Hyperthermia / Hypothermia)
For Cold Emergencies – Warm Slowly
For Heat Emergencies – Cool Slowly
Only Give Water to Conscious Patients

Severity and Amount
Cool Water
Keep Clean / Cover
If Burns May Require Advanced Care
Do Not Use Burn Creams/Gels
Bleeding
Cover with Clean Bandage
Calm Patient = Lower Blood Pressure
Pressure -> Elevation -> Pressure Points
