    Hello to all of my Healthcare brothers and sister!
    The 2020 AHA Guidelines are out. I have posted the new videos for BLS, ACLS, and PALS: ua-cam.com/play/PLhOFBB3AV9swkQ1KUodrLKmxvEbI3R0-R.html.
    These changes will not take place until February 2021; however, these concepts are currently being taught in your courses. ☺️❤️

    You asses the environment for safety first.
    Look for anything that might be dangerous, like signs of fire, falling debris, or violent people. If your safety is at risk, remove yourself from the area and call for help.
    If the scene is safe, assess the condition of the sick or injured person.
    You are a good trainer. Thank you.

    Im confused on the pediatric BLS. Do you give breaths every 2-3 seconds or do you give breaths after every round of CPR?

    • @NurseCheung
      @NurseCheung  3 роки тому +3

      Thats a great question Michael Laviola ☺️ It is really dependent on the situation and resources. If you are a single rescuer or 2 rescuer without a bag valve mask, then you will perform breaths after each round of chest compressions. However, in the hospital setting, we have a bag valve mask and provide rescue breaths every 2-3 seconds for pediatric patients and every 6 seconds for adults. I hope that helps answer your question.

    agonal respiration is an indicator of cardiac arrest, so you must begin chest compressions (CPR) immediately. But Nurse cheung said If Pt's pulse present with agonal breath, begin resque breathing? Can you verify this for me?

    • @NurseCheung
      @NurseCheung  3 роки тому +1

      Great question Seohyun Peters ☺️💜 Here is the algorithms for BLS, ACLS, PALS for the American Heart Association cpr.heart.org/en/resuscitation-science/cpr-and-ecc-guidelines/algorithms. These will advise what to do for agonal breathing. If the heart rate is less than 60, then you will begin CPR. However, if the heart rate is greater than 60 with agonal breathing, you want to provide rescue breaths.

  • @MISSMARLENE7
    @MISSMARLENE7 10 місяців тому

    Question at 12:05 Regarding rescue breaths you state after every "round " of chest compressions The provider should provide two breaths every two to three seconds. If you were doing just rescue breathing this would be the case, but after compressions it would only be 2 breaths and 30 compressions. Not 30 compressions and 2 breaths every 2-3 seconds unless it was an advanced airway, correct?

    • @NurseCheung
      @NurseCheung  10 місяців тому

      You are correct in identifying a discrepancy. Let me clarify the general guidelines for CPR in adults:
      Without Advanced Airway: After every 30 chest compressions, the provider should give 2 rescue breaths (taking about 1 second each) and then resume chest compressions. This 30:2 ratio is continued.
      With an Advanced Airway: Continuous chest compressions are given without pauses, and breaths are delivered once every 6 seconds (or about 10 breaths per minute).
      For rescue breathing without chest compressions (for example, in a drowning victim who has a pulse but is not breathing), breaths are given once every 5-6 seconds (or about 10-12 breaths per minute) in adults.
      In children and infants (when only one rescuer is present), the compression to breath ratio is also 30:2. However, when there are two rescuers, the ratio is 15:2.
      Always be sure to follow the most recent guidelines provided by authoritative sources such as the American Heart Association (AHA) or equivalent organizations in your country.

    Can you clarify why on an opioid poisoning if they have a pulse but they are not breathing you Give narcan, but if they do not have a pulse you only Consider narcan?

    • @NurseCheung
      @NurseCheung  2 роки тому

      This is a great question Marlene Mirabella ☺️💜 This source comes directly from the American Heart Association research, "Patients with no definite pulse may be in cardiac arrest or may have an undetected weak or slow pulse. These patients should be managed as cardiac arrest patients. Standard resuscitative measures should take priority over naloxone administration (Class I, LOE C-EO), with a focus on high-quality CPR (compressions plus ventilation). It may be reasonable to administer IM or IN naloxone based on the possibility that the patient is not in cardiac arrest (Class IIb, LOE C-EO). Responders should not delay access to more-advanced medical services while awaiting the patient’s response to naloxone or other interventions (Class I, LOE C-EO). Unless the patient refuses further care, victims who respond to naloxone administration should access advanced healthcare services (Class I, LOE C-EO). We can make no recommendation regarding the administration of naloxone in confirmed opioid-associated cardiac arrest. Patients with opioid-associated cardiac arrest are managed in accordance with standard ACLS practices."

And also are you supposed to give breaths until the chest rises or just try it one time and then go back to compressions and then try breaths again?

      Great question Zinc Man. You always want to check for scene safety if you are out in the field and someone collapses. There are times victims may collapse in the middle of the street. It is important to remove the victim and yourself out of a dangerous situation. There are stories where victims and rescuers were hurt performing CPR in a dangerous location. If you get hurt, then you are not going to be able to help anyone else or yourself. I hope that helps answer your question ☺️❤️

    • @NurseCheung
      @NurseCheung  Рік тому +1

      Great question Marcial Bonifacio 😊💜 If the patient is unconscious and was choking prior, then you would perform CPR as the patient has most likely lost a pulse, but I would still follow the BLS algorithm to confirm no pulse is present. After a round of CPR, the algorithm would require you to turn the patient on their side and look in the mouth to see if the object is present. Never blind sweep in the person's mouth, as this can push the object back down, blocking the airway. I will also note that if you ask the person if they need help and they gesture that they do not want help, do not touch the person as this can be considered battery if you are sued. Once the person becomes unconscious, consent is implied to save their life. I hope that helps answer your question. 😊

This is how you are going to select your joules to provide during each shock for the patient when necessary. If you have a child who weights 20 kg then you are going to dial up the energy to 40 joules (2 joules x 20 kg = 40 joules). Each subsequent shock (4, 6, 8) will require more energy. Remember you never want to go above 10 joules/kg. ☺️💜
