  1. VISION “It is a terrible thing to see and have no vision.” -Helen Keller

  2. CPCR CARDIOPULMONARY CEREBROVASCULAR RESUSCITATION

  3. Cardiopulmonary Arrest and Resuscitation (CPR) Cardiopulmonary Arrest (CPA)— sudden cessation of effective ventilation and circulation. • Causes • Anesthesia • Trauma • Infections (e.g. pneumonia) • Heart disease • Autoimmune disease • Malignancy • Trauma • Hypoxemia • Shock • anemia

  4. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation • Resuscitation Team Members • Should be 3-5 members • Team leader—Veterinarian or RVT with most experience • All members have several responsibilities • Provide ventilation • Chest compression • Establish IV line • Administer drugs • Attach monitoring equipment • Record resuscitation efforts • Monitor team’s effectiveness • Teams should practice on a regular basis to stay sharp

  5. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation • Facilities • Adequate room for entire team and equipment • O2 source • Good lighting • Crash cart with all needed Rx (should be checked at beginning of each shift) • Defibrillators • Electrocardiogram • Suction • Table to perform chest compression • Grated surgery prep table not solid enough for chest compression • Use board underneath patient • Recognition • RVT should ID patients at risk and observe any deterioration • Preventing an arrest is easier than treating one Agonal breaths, apnea, collapse, fixed gaze, no palpable pulse

  6. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation • Standard Emergency Supplies (on crash cart) • Pharmaceuticals --Venous access supplies • Atropine ● Butterfly cath • Epinephrine ● IV caths • Vasopressin ● IV drip sets • 2% lidocaine (w/o epi) ● Bone marrow needles • Na+bicarb● Syringes • Ca++ chloride or gluconate● Hypodermic needles (var sizes) • Lactated Ringer’s, hypertonic saline, ● Adhesive tape dextran 70, hetastarch● Tourniquet • Airway access supplies --Miscellaneous supplies • Laryngoscope ● Gauze pads (3 x 3) • Endotracheal tubes (variety of sizes) ● Stethoscope • Lubricating jelly ● Minor surgery pack • Roll gauze ● Suture material ● Scalpel blades ● Surgeon’s gloves

  7. Emergency Drugs in Dogs

  8. Emergency Drugs in Cats

  9. CPR • Basic Life Support: • A -- Establishment of an Airway. • B-- Breathing support. • C -- Circulation support. • Advanced Life Support: • D -- Diagnosis and Drugs. • E -- Electrocardiography. • F -- Fibrillation control. • Prolonged Life Support: • G -- Gauging a patient's response. • H -- Hopeful measures for the brain • I -- Intensive care.

  10. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation • Basic Life Support (Phase I) • Remember the priorities (ABC; Airway, Breathing, Circulation) • Establish patent Airway • Endotracheal tube • Tracheostomy tube for upper airway obstruction • Suction to remove blood, mucus, pulmonary edema fluid, vomit • Artificial ventilation (Breathing) • Ambu-Bag • Anesthetic machine • Ventilate once every 3-5 sec • Chest compressions in between breaths if working alone • 1 to 2 times per second (80 times per minute for a large dog and 120 times for a small dog or cat) • 10 compression for every 2 breaths (or 5:1)

  12. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Intubation

  13. Basic Life Support (Phase I) Circulation External cardiac compression Lateral recumbency—one/both hands on thorax over heart (4th-5th intercostal space) In larger patients, arms extended, elbows locked In small patients, thumb and first 2 fingers to compress chest Rate of compression: 80-120/min Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

  14. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation • Basic Life Support (Phase I) • Circulation • Internal cardiac compression • More effective than external compression • ↑CO, ↑BP, higher survival rate • Indications • Rib fractures • Pleural effusion • Pneumothorax • If not responsive after 5 min of external cardiac compression • Preparation • Clip hair ASAP, no surgical scrub • Incision at 7th and 8thintercostal space • With a gloved hand, compress heart between fingers and palm (Do not puncture heart with finger tips or twist heart) • After spontaneous beating returns, flush chest cavity with saline, perform sterile scrub of skin and close

  15. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation • Basic Life Support (Phase I) • Assessing effectiveness (must be done frequently) • Improved color of mm • Palpable pulse during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (difficult) • If efforts are not effective, do something differently • Use different hand • Change person performing compression • Ventilate with every 2nd or 3rd chest compression • Compress chest where it is widest in lg breed dogs • Apply counter-pressure to abdomen (hand, sandbag) • Prevents posterior displacement of diaphragm and increases intrathoracic pressure

  16. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation • Advanced Life Support (Phase II) Add 2 priorities to ABC--D E (administer Drugs, Electrical—defibrillate) • Drugs • Fluids • Lactated Ringer’s is standard (do not use Dextrose) • Initial dose: Dogs—40 ml/kg (rapidly IV) Cats—20 ml/kg • Atropine—parasympatholytic effects (blocks parasympathetic effects) • 0.02-0.04 mg/kg • ↑HR • ↓secretions • Epinephrine—adrenergic effects • 0.02-0.2 mg/kg • Arterial and venous vasoconstriction→ ↑BP

  17. CPR Common arrhythmias: electrical mechanical dissociation, (no pulse), asystole (flatline), ventricular tachcardia, bradycardia

  18. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation • Advanced Life Support (Phase II) Add 2 priorities to ABC--D E (administer Drugs, Electrical—defibrillate) • Drugs(continued) • 2% Lidocaine (Used to treat cardiac arrhythmias) • Dogs: 1-2 mg/kg Cats: 0.5-1.0 mg/kg • Sodium bicarb (For metabolic acidosis) • 0.5 mEq/kg per 5 min or cardiac arrest • Vasopressin (ADH) • 0.8 U/kg

  19. CPR

  20. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation • Advanced Life Support (Phase II) Add 2 priorities to ABC--D E (administer Drugs, Electrical—defibrillate) • Drugs (continued) • Route of drug administration • Jugular vein—close to heart; drugs will get to heart quicker • Cephalic, saphenous—follow drugs with 10-30 ml saline flush • Intraosseous—intramedullarycannula into femur, humerus, wing of ilium, tibial crest • Intratracheal—for limited # of drugs: atropine, lidocaine, epinephrine • Intracardiac—last resort; several complications can occur • Depends on • Speed of access • Technical ability • Difficulties encountered • Rate of drug delivery

  21. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation • Advanced Life Support (Phase II) Add 2 priorities to ABC--D E (administer Drugs, Electrical—defibrillate) • Electrical—Defibrillate • Purpose—eliminate asynchronous electrical activity in heart muscles by depolarizing all cardiac muscle fibers; hopefully, the fibers will repolarize uniformly and start beating with coordinated contractions • Paddles (with electrical gel) placed on each side of chest • Yell “CLEAR” before discharging electrical current • Start with low charge and increase as needed • External: 3-5 J/kg • Internal: 0.2-0.4 J/kg

  22. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation DEFIBRILLATORS

  23. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation VENTRICULAR FIBRILLATION NORMAL EKG

  24. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation • Prolonged Life Support (Phase III) • Once heart is beating on its own, monitor the following: • HR and rhythm • Antiarrhythmic drugs • Correct electrolyte abnormalities • BP • Peripheral perfusion • Color of mm • Cap refill time • urine output • RR and character of breathing • Adequate breathing • Auscultory sounds • Mental status • Improving or deteriorating UC Davis study: survival rate at 1 wk for cardiac resuscitation patients Dogs: 3.8% Cats: 2.3%
