Background: There are only two interventions that have been proven in the medical literature to improved outcomes in cardiac arrest: high-quality CPR and early defibrillation. Head Up (HUP) CPR may be the next critical improvement. Head Up (HUP) CPR may be the next critical improvement. Resuscitation 2022; 179: 9-17.
CPR is taken over by responding crews, and he is placed on a cardiac monitor/defibrillator. After several cycles of defibrillation, epinephrine, and amiodarone, the patient remains in cardiac arrest. Vallentin, Povlsen, Granfeldt, Terkelsen, & Andersen, 2022). He is found to be in ventricular fibrillation (VF).
2022 Nov 6 PMID: 36342151 Clinical Question: How does double defibrillation and vector change defibrillation compare to standard therapy in OHCA patients with refractory ventricular fibrillation? In fact, 4000 paramedics in total were not only trained in the study protocol but also given a rigorous evaluation of their ability to perform CPR.
The paramedics begin CPR. CPR is performed with manual compressions as no mechanical CPR device is available. After administering 1mg of epinephrine ROSC is noted with a bradycardic rhythm ( Figure 2 ). They are unable to feel a pulse and resume CPR. Intubation is attempted, but unsuccessful. Current 85mA.
The patient received 1 mg of epinephrine IV x2 with conversion of his rhythm to ventricular fibrillation (VF) for which he was defibrillated twice in the field. He requires low-dose epinephrine to maintain his mean arterial pressure (MAP) in the 60s mmHg and is transported to the cardiothoracic (CT) ICU. Published 2022 Jan 3.
CPR was initiated immediately. Decision was made to push tPA after approximately 25 minutes of CPR, and after approximately 25 minutes after tPA was given, O2 saturation increased to 97%, and the patient was no longer cyanotic, converted to normal sinus rhythm with anterior lateral T wave inversions with ST depressions."
