The CAB sequence for infants and children is to simplify training. Therefore, start CPR with chest compressions immediately, while a second rescuer prepares to provide ventilation Class I. After each compression, allow the chest to recoil completely Class IIb. Note: Inadequate compression depth and incomplete recoil is common even among trained providers.
For two rescuers, a ratio of is recommended. Make sure to select the correct size. If an advanced airway is in place, compressions should be delivered without pauses for ventilation. Avoid excessive ventilation Class III. Place manual electrodes over the right side of upper chest and the apex of the heart to left of nipple over left lower ribs. There is no advantage in an anterior-posterior position of the paddles. If not available, an AED with an attenuator may be used.
An AED without a dose attenuator may be used if neither a manual defibrillator nor a dose attenuator is available Class IIb. It may also spare the rescuer from interrupting chest compressions for a pulse check because an abrupt and sustained rise in PetCO2 is observed just prior to clinical identification of ROSC. Adenosine is the drug of choice Class I. Consider cardioversion using energy described for SVT. Expert consultation is strongly recommended prior to administration of amiodarone or procainamide.
Additional warming techniques are recommended e. If the arrest is known to be of cardiac etiology, consider a higher ratio Administration of supplemental oxygen should be guided by oximetry. It is reasonable for dispatchers to advise patients with potential cardiac symptoms to chew an aspirin — mg , providing the patient has no history of aspirin allergy and no signs of active or recent gastrointestinal bleeding Class IIa, LOE C.
If the trained lay rescuer is able to perform rescue breaths, compressions and breaths should be provided in a ratio of 30 compressions to two breaths. See the below information. No one can teach the new guidelines until they have been updated via the webcast on the Instructor Network OR attend one of the two face to face Guidelines updates for AHA Instructors. The pre-conference sessions will occur December 8, For more information on this update opportunity, Instructors should visit www.
AHA training materials updated to reflect new Guidelines will launch throughout The tentative release dates for products were provided back in November from our National office.
