BASIC LIFE SUPPORT CPR: Considered when an individual cannot adequately breathe and maintain circulation to vital organs. Introduction Why & When to Do it? Collapsed patients require assistance to maintain their airway, breathing and circulation in order to prevent further detoriation in their condition. When this is achieved without the use of any equipment, it is termed as Basic Life Support (BLS). Without CPR, irreversible brain damage occurs within 3-4 minutes. Should be done immediately by a bystander Time is the crucial factor here to decide the survival. This must be continued whilst further help is summoned to diagnose and treat the cause of collapse. CPR Resuscitation: ACLS (Advanced cardiac life support BLS (Basic life Support) ALS (Advanced life support) CPCR - Cardio pulmonary cerebral Resuscitation Means cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) Anywhere anybody can do All you need is a kind heart to help & the basic skill to perform.

Check for injuries No response Leave him in the position and reassess at intervals Open airway Head tilt Chin lift Breathing Check breathing (Look, listen, feel) Recovery Position Not breathing reassess at intervals SHOUT for help Activate EMS Ventilate 2 breaths (exhaled air ventilation) Check circulation (carotid pulse) Circulation Present No circulation Start CPR Continue ventilation

III. AIRWAY Head tilt First basic skill to learn Position the victim Head lift Chin lift Jaw thrust The rescuer's hand nearest the head is placed on the forehead, and apply firm backward pressure to tilt the head back. CHIN LIFT Place fingers of other hand under the bony part of the chin. Lift the chin forward and support the jaw helping to tilt the head back. Dont's In unresponsive victim muscle tone is impaired resulting in obstruction of pharynx by tongue and soft tissues of pharynx. HEAD TILT Chin lift The fingers must not press deeply into the soft tissue under the chin, which obstruct the air way. The thumb should not be used for lifting the chin. The mouth should not be closed. JAW THRUST

Breathing The jaw thrust technique without head tilt is the safest approach to opening airway of the victim with suspected neck injury. Grasp the angles of the victim lower jaw and lift with both hands, as on each side, displacing the mandible forward. If the lips close, retreat the lower lip with the thumb. Recovery Position BREATHING Determine breathlessness Recovery position Rescue breathing Determine breathlessness To maintain a good airway FEL Place your ear over the victim's mouth and nose while maintaining the open airway. Look for the chest to raise and fall. Listen for air escaping during exhalation. Feel for the flow of air. The evaluation procedures should be only 3-5 secs. Unresponsiveness No trauma Change to recovery position To minimise the risk of aspiration

Roll the victim on to his or her side so that the head, shoulders and torso move simultaneously without twisting support. If trauma suspected the victim should not be moved. With the other hand grasp the victim under the arm to brace the shoulder and torso. Position the victim Place the hand behind the victim's head & neck for Roll the victim towards you by pulling steadily and evenly at the shoulder while controlling the head and neck. The head and neck should remain in the same plane as the torso, and the body should be moved as a single unit. Rescue breathing To position the victim who is lying down, the following sequence may be used. Kneel beside the victim at distance approximately equal to the width of victim's body at the level of the victim's shoulder. Move the arm closer to you so that it is raised above the victim's head. Straighten the legs or bend slightly at the knees. - mouth to mouth - mouth to nose - mouth to stoma Mouth to mouth

The rescuer's exhaled air contains 16% oxygen to Mouth to nose: supply victim's need. Keep the airway open by the head lift - chin lift maneuver. Gently pinch the nose closed with your thumb and index finger (of the hand on the forehead). Useful in injuries of mouth. the forehead. Take a deep breath and seal your lips around the victim's mouth, creating an airtight seal. Then give two slow breaths. Adequate time (11/2-2 seconds) should be allowed for each breath to decrease the possibility of gastric Keep the victim's head tilted back with one hand on Use the other hand to lift the victim's lower jaw and close the mouth. Take of deep breath, seal your lips around the victim's nose and blow. Then stop rescue breathing and allow the victim to exhale passively. distention. Rescue breathing should be performed at a rate of In one rescuer CPR - pause for ventilation after 10-12 breaths per minute. every 15 chest compression In two rescuer CPR - pause for ventilation after If attempts to ventilate the victim are unsuccessful It every 5 chest compression. may be due to Improper chin and head positioning. FB airway obstruction - (proceed for airway maneuvers). V. CIRCULATION

Place these fingers into the groove between the trachea and the muscles at the side of the neck, Never palpate simultaneously over hard surface during chest Proper hand placement is established by identifying the lower half of the sternum where the carotid pulse can the felt. The patient must be in the horizontal, supine While maintaining the head tilt with one hand on the fingers of the other hand Cardiac arrest is recognised by pulselessness in With your hand locate the lower margin of the victim's ribcage on the side next to the rescuer both carotid arteries. Pulse present /No breathing -> continue rescue breathing 10-12 times/mt No pulse / No breathing -> Activate EMS Initiate chest compression Continue rescue breathing. Move the finger up the rib cage to the notch where the ribs meet the sternum in the center of the lower part of the chest.

Fingers may be either extended on interlaced Your elbow should be locked into position Arms straightened Shoulder directly over the hands. Natural body weight falling forward provides the Place heel of the one hand on the lower half of the sternum and place the other hand on top of the hand on the sternum force to depress the sternum. The sternum should be depressed approximately 11/2-2 inches (4-5cm) Children 1/3-1/2 inches (1-1.5 cm) depth.

CONTINUE RESUSCITATION UNTIL Qualified help arrives Victim shows signs of life You become exhausted Reassement (10 seconds) Should be performed after the first minute of CPR and every minute thereafter. If no pulse - resume CPR If pulse and breathing present - place in recovery position If pulse present no breathing - provide rescue - Younger victims - Suddenly stops breathing - Cyanotic & loss of consciousness Chocking:

With complete airway obstruction the victim is unable to speak, breathe or cough and may clutch the neck with the thumb and fingers. Management: Hemlich, Maneuver. (Sub diaphragmatic abdominal thrust) Mechanism : by elevating the diaphragm the Hermlich maneuver can force air from the lungs to create an artificial cough intended to expel a FB obstructing the airway. Hemlich with victim standing or Sitting Hemlich Maneuver

Rescuer stands behind the victim, wraps his or her arms around the victim's waist and proceeds as follows: Place the victim in the supine position face up Kneel astride the victim's thighs and place the heel Make a fist with one hand. Place the thumb side of the fist against victim's of one hand against the victim's abdomen, in the abdomen in the midline above the navel and well midline slightly above the navel and below the tip of below the xiphoid process. the xiphoid. Grasp the fist with the other hand and press the fist Place the second hand directly on top of the first in to the victim's abdomen with a quick upward Press the abdomen with the quick upward thrust thrust. Repeat the thrust and continue until the object (FB) Finger sweep is expelled. Hemlich maneuver with victim lying down Used only in the unconscious victim, never use it in seizure victim. With victim's face up, open the victim's mouth by grasping both tongue and the lower jaw between the
