Properly functioning resuscitation equipment represents that element of a system
of care?
Structure
Among others which of the following factors has been associated with improved
survival in patients with cardiac arrest?
Immediate high quality CPR
What is the first link in the out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) Chain of
Survival?
Activation of emergency response
The purpose of a rapid response team (RRT) or medical emergency team (MET) is
to
improve patient outcomes by identifying and treating early clinical deterioration.
Components of a rapid response system:
Event detection and response triggering arm
A plant response such an RRT or MET
Quality monitoring
Administrative support
Criteria for RRT
Airway compromise
Respiratory rate less than six per minute or more than 30 per minute
Heart rate less than 40 per minute or greater than 140 per minute
, Systolic blood pressure less than 90 mm HG
Symptomatic hypertension
Unexpended decrease in level of consciousness
Unexplained agitation
Seizure
Significant decrease in urine output
Clinical deterioration that would prompt the activation of a rapid response system
Symptomatic hypertension
Seizure
Unexplained agitation
IHCA
In hospital cardiac arrest
Benefits of implementing a rapid response system
Decreased in hospital cardiac arrest IHCA
Decreased ICU length of stay
Decrease in total hospital length of stay
Whenever compressions are paused
Compressor should hover over the chest (not touching it) and be prepared for his
integration
Before passing compressions
15 seconds before passing through fashion at the end of each two minute cycle high-
performance teams should check for a pulse, recharge the defibrillator, if he supposed
to deliver a shock in 10 seconds or less
Switch compressors every
Switching between cycles every two minutes is best
Real time feedback devices
His best practice to use real time feedback devices during CPR such as a metronome,
or metronome app on your mobile device
Which component of effective high-performance teams is represented by the use
of real time feedback Devices?
Quality
Main advantage of effective teamwork?
Division of tasks
CPR Coach
Supports performance of high-quality BLS skills allowing the team leader to focus on
other aspects of clinical care
Which is the best example of a role of the team leader
Excellent team behavior
What is the best example of a role of a team member?
Prepared to fulfill their role responsibilities
What is the primary purpose of the CPR coach on a resuscitation team
Increasing CPR quality
Which high-performance team member is part of the resuscitation triangle
Monitor/defibrillator/CPR Coach
What is an example of summarizing and reevaluating
Increasing monitoring if the patient's condition deteriorates
