Purpose of BLS :20/07/2008 drdgm 3 Purpose of BLS Holding operation
To maintain respiration and circulation till expert help arrives
Failure of circulation for 3 to 4 minutes leads to irreversible brain damage
Emphasis on rapid and high quality bls

Basic life support (BLS)elements :20/07/2008 drdgm 7 Basic life support (BLS)elements Initial assessment,
then airway maintenance,
expired air ventilation (rescue breathing),
and chest compression.
Basic life support
implies that no equipment is employed;
where a simple airway or facemask for mouth to mouth ventilation is used,
this is defined as
"basic life support with airway adjunct".

CPR :20/07/2008 drdgm 19 CPR Minimize the number and length of interruptions in chest compressions.
Try to limit interruptions to 10 seconds or less unless necessary for specific interventions such as advanced airway placement or defibrillation.
The compressor should allow for full chest recoil following each compression.
To reduce the chances of fatigue affecting the quality of compressions, the rescuers should change compressors frequently, about every 2 minutes when the rhythm is checked.

Airway and Breathing :20/07/2008 drdgm 24 Airway and Breathing General
Please do not Hyperventilate
Opening the airway priority for an unresponsive trauma victim
Breaths in all age groups should be delivered over 1 second and should produce visible chest rise.
When the victim has an advanced airway
(eg, endotracheal tube, LMA, Combitube) in place,
CPR is no longer performed as "cycles" of compressions with pauses for breaths.
The compressor gives continuous compressions.
The rescuer giving breaths should give 1 breath every
6 to 8 seconds (about 8 to 10 breaths/minute)
Rescue breathing :20/07/2008 drdgm 25 Rescue breathing Ensure head tilt and chin lift
Pinch the victim’s nose closed with the index finger and thumb of your hand on his forehead
Open his mouth a little,
but maintain chin lift
Maintaining head tilt and chin lift, take your mouth away from the victim and watch for his chest to fall as air comes out
Jaw thrust… :20/07/2008 drdgm 26 Jaw thrust…
Adult(RB..) :20/07/2008 drdgm 27 Adult(RB..) When giving 2 breaths at the beginning of the CPR sequence or during cycles of compressions and breaths, if the chest does not rise after the first breath, the rescuer should try again to open the airway before giving the second breath.
Rescue Breathing Without Chest Compressions: Give 1 breath every 5 to 6 seconds
(about 10 to 12 breaths/minute).
Slide 28 :20/07/2008 drdgm 28 Child(RB..) When giving 2 breaths at the beginning of the CPR sequence or during cycles of compressions and breaths, if the chest does not rise after the first breath, the rescuer should try again to open the airway before giving the second breath. Healthcare providers may need to try "a couple of times" to open the airway and deliver effective breaths
breaths that produce visible chest rise
Rescue Breathing Without Chest Compressions:
Give 1 breath every 3 to 5 seconds
(about 12 to 20 breaths/minute)

Infant(RB..) :20/07/2008 drdgm 30 Infant(RB..) Healthcare providers
30:2 compression-to-ventilation ratio for 1-rescuer CPR
15:2 compression-to-ventilation ratio for 2-rescuer CPR
Chest compressions
if the heart rate is less than 60 per minute with signs of poor perfusion.
Give compressions just below the nipple line, over the lower half of the breastbone.
2-rescuer infant CPR
the healthcare provider who gives compressions should use the
2 thumb–encircling hands technique, including a thoracic squeeze.
If the healthcare provider is alone or cannot physically encircle the infant's chest, the rescuer should use 2 fingers to compress the breastbone.

SHAKE on shoulders and SHOUT
Hey ?Are You all right? Sequence of
Action and (Re)/Assessment, Response, What is the response of the victim to your action?
Airway Assessment :20/07/2008 drdgm 36 Airway Assessment Keeping the airway open, look, listen, and feel for normal breathing-
ten seconds
Look for chest movement
Listen at the victim's mouth for breath sounds
Feel for air on your cheek
Give 2 Rescue Breaths :20/07/2008 drdgm 37 Give 2 Rescue Breaths Give 2 rescue breaths,
each over 1 second,
with enough volume
to produce
visible chest rise
to all forms
of ventilation during CPR,
including
mouth-to-mouth and
bag-mask ventilation and ventilation through an advanced airway,
with and without supplementary oxygen (Class IIa)
Response of victim :20/07/2008 drdgm 38 Response of victim No response
Shout for help
turn the victim on to his back and then open the airway
With your fingertips under the point of the victim's chin, lift the chin to open the airway.
If no visible chest rise on RB….? :20/07/2008 drdgm 39 If no visible chest rise on RB….? Check the victim's mouth and remove any visible obstruction.
Recheck that there is adequate head tilt and chin lift.
Do not attempt more than two breaths each time before returning tochest compressions If you see a foreign body, remove it.

AED Use :20/07/2008 drdgm 43 AED Use When using an AED, rescuers should deliver 1 shock (if advised) followed by immediate CPR, beginning with chest compressions. Immediately after shock delivery, healthcare providers should not check a pulse because that will delay the resumption of chest compressions; a pulse is unlikely to be present in the first seconds after shock delivery.
Rescuers should follow the AED voice prompts. Check with the device manufacturer regarding re-programming of the AED to be consistent with the 2005 AHA Guidelines. After re-programming by the manufacturer, the AED should prompt rescuers to allow the AED to analyze the victim's rhythm every 2 minutes.
The evidence is insufficient to recommend for or against the use of AEDs in infants under 1 year of age.
