Approximately 400,000 SCA/YR in US Avg 18 SCA/day in AZ #1 cause of adult death in the US Critical/Quantifiable EMS function Test of entire EMS System Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA)
OHCASurvivalin Arizona 50 40 30 20 10 0 With so few survivors, we felt compelled to make modifications to protocol based upon current evidence and track the results closely % 3 Arizona Bobrow B et al. Circulation. 2006; 114:II 350.
Major Determinants of Survival From Cardiac Arrest • Early/Effective CPR • Early Defibrillation • “Early ACLS” is not supported by quality data.

30 AEDs in Chicago O’Hare Airport 80 % (8/10) Survival VF Cardiac Arrest 2 %* Chicago City Chicago Airport * Lance Becker, M.D. 15 arrests 10 VF
It is not likely that we can make the Verde Valley in to the O’hare Airport Less dense population Slower time to defibrillation Other factors?
Outcomes of Rapid Defibrillation by Security Officers after Cardiac Arrest in Casinos • Survival rate 74 % in patients who received first shock within 3 minutes • Survival rate 49 % in patients who received first shock after 3 minutes • Intervals of no more than 3 minutes from collapse to defibrillation are necessary to achieve the highest survival rates Valenzuela et al NEJM 2000; 343: 1206
What about home AEDs? They studied it….
Home Use of Automated External Defibrillators for Sudden Cardiac ArrestBardy, et al NEJM 4/24/2008 Conclusions: For survivors of anterior-wall myocardial infarctionwho were not candidates for implantation of a cardioverter–defibrillator,access to a home AED did not significantly improve overall survival,as compared with reliance on conventional resuscitation methods.
Bystander CPR • 67% of all OHCA occur in the victim’s private residence and that only 15% occur in actual public areas. • When “extended care and medical facilities” are excluded, the percentage of arrests occurring in private residences increases to 82%. Vadeboncoeur et al. Resuscitation 2007
Reasons forLow Rates of Bystander CPR #5 Lack of training (Time & Cost) #4 CPR as taught is a complex psychomotor task -fear of not getting it right #3 Public fear of harming victim #2 Fear of litigation #1 Reason no one wants to do CPR….
Can We Simplify BLS for Bystanders? Eliminate Mouth-to-mouth Rescue Breathing!!Chest Compression-only BLS for Lay Persons
This has been studied extensively by the CPR research group at the Sarver Heart Center in University of Arizona 6 different published studies all show that in experiment models of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in swine, survival is the same with continuous chest compression CPR and standard, ideal (2 breaths in 4 seconds) CPR
EMS almost always arrive during the Circulatory Phase Electrical Phase (Early Defibrillation Critical) Minute 0 to 5 Circulatory Phase (Perfusion Critical) Untreated = Minute 5 to 15

CirculatoryPhase The period of VF after the first 4-5 minutes is referred to as the CIRCULATORY phase and it appears that the critical intervention at this point is perfusing the myocardium.

Causes of Chest Compression InterruptionsFor EMS Providers • Assessing patient (i.e., repeatedly) • Preparing and/or Over Ventilation • IV placement • Intubation • Changing Rescuers • Defibrillation, particularly use of AEDs
What about Oxygen? • VFCA: • Lungs and arterial circulation full of oxygen • Key is circulating the oxygen already there • Experimental work has shown Arterial Sats remain acceptable for up to 10 min of CCC • Respiratory Arrest-Different ! • Ventilation crucial to replace Oxygen
Respiratory Arrest-Different !Ventilation crucial to replace Oxygen • We must identify and treat respiratory arrests differently • Choking • Trauma • Intoxication/OD • Copd/pneumonia/some CHF • Was dyspnea present a while prior to arrest? • Turn blue?

2005 AHA Guidelines “For adult OHCA that is not witnessed, rescuers may give a period of CPR before checking the rhythm and attempting defibrillation” (Class IIb)
CCR vs. ACLSFUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCES For Adult Non-Traumatic Cardiac Arrest Order in which interventions are performed Specified Continuous Cardiac Compressions Faster more forceful compressions?? Compressions Before and After Defibrillation Early IV Epinephrine Delay intubation for first 3 rounds Airway: Face Mask 02 No Atropine for first 3 rounds
EPINEPHRINE • Attempt to administer early IV epinephrine • Intraosseous administration fastest • In the Verde Valley, this will be a primary use for IO lines and should be considered a reasonable option after a brief attempt at IV access lasting no more than 90 sec.
Is CCR better than 2005 ACLS? No evidence directly answers that question. The big study was prior to 2005 changes.
The 5 major changes in the 2005 guidelines: • improve delivery of effective chest compressions • single compression-to-ventilation ratio (30:2) (except newborns) • each rescue breath should be given over 1 second to produce visible chest rise • single shock followed by immediate CPR without pulse or rhythm check for VF/ PVT cardiac arrest • AED use in children (1-8 years)
SUMMARY ofAHA ECC 2005 GUIDELINES “Push hard and push fast with adequate recoil and minimal interruptions”
SUMMARY ofAHA ECC 2005 GUIDELINES • Effective ACLS begins with high-quality BLS...particularly high-quality CPR! • The potential effects of any drugs or ACLS therapy on outcome from VF SCA arrest are dwarfed by the potential effects of high-quality CPR.
What is the Risk of CCR? • Training expense • New ACLS likely will be a little different • Deviation from widespread standard
Possible benefits of CCR • Unlikely to make things worse • Better survival from CCR • Better CPR leads to better survival • Possible early adoption of key 2010 ACLS changes

Discussion: Possible Beneficial Effects of CCR • Minimize interruptions of marginal forward blood flow during resuscitation efforts • Minimize hyperventilation during resuscitation • Delay of advanced airway interventions may enable providers to focus on compressions and earlier epinephrine administration
Actual Effectiveness of Cardiocerebral Resuscitation Depends upon Compliance!! Outcomes of patients who did and who did not receive all four critical CCR steps

SHARE and CCR Goal • Optimal timing of defibrillation • Reducing all “Hands-Off” Intervals • Avoid hyper-ventilation • Administer early IV/IO epinephrine • Increase and maintain coronary perfusion pressure • Increase % of bystander CPR
Team members • CPR guy • AED guy • Epinephrine/airway guy • Airway guy? Or supervisor guy?
Most Common CCR Errors • Stacked Shocks • Early Endotracheal Intubation before 3 cycles completed • Hyperventilation • Late Administration of Epinephrine • Omitting or delaying Post-Shock Compressions • Administration of Other Meds (atropine)
Where do we go from here? • Compression-only CPR for laypeople – mass training • EMS – more emphasis on uninterrupted chest compressions • In-hospital – Cardiac Arrest Center concept • Children – prevent arrest
DOCUMENTATION Complete and accurate documentation is critical to know the success of your efforts! The following data is required IN ADDITION to your standard, current documentation ------
ADDITIONAL DATA • Write “CCR” if you intended to do protocol • Bystander CPR – type (CCC/CPR) and quality, by whom • CCC – # compressions pre and post shock, how many cycles • When was IV Epi #1 given and how • Ventilation – method and rate • At what point in resuscitation was intubation attempted / accomplished • Patient’s condition when you went back in service • Ethnicity • Electronic data collection is the goal! • Patient Medical Record Number if possible
Deaths Post Resuscitation • Many post-ROSC patients die • About 1/3 are from CNS injury • About 1/3 from Myocardial injury • And about 1/3 from variety of causes (i.e., infection, etc.) Schoenenberger et. al., Arch Intern Med 1992;154:2433
