  2. FLS • The causes of cardiorespiratoryarrest • Identify and managing patients at risk using the ABCDEapproach Objectives

  3. FLS Early recognition of the critically ill patient

  5. FLS • Airway • Breathing • Circulation Causes of cardiorespiratory arrest

  6. FLS Obstruction caused by: • CNS depression • Blood • Vomit • Foreign body • Trauma • Infection • Inflammation • Laryngospasm Causes of cardiorespiratory arrest Airway problems

  7. FLS • Decreased respiratory drive • CNS depression • Decreased respiratory effort • muscle weakness • nerve damage • restrictive chest defect • pain from fractured ribs • Lung disorders • pneumothorax • haemothorax • infection • acute exacerbation COPD • asthma • pulmonary embolus • ARDS Causes of cardiorespiratory arrest Breathing problems

  10. FLS Primary • Acute coronary syndromes • Dysrhythmias • Hypertensive heart disease • Valve disease • Drugs • Electrolyte / acid base abnormalities Secondary • Hypoxaemia • Blood loss • Hypothermia • Septic shock Causes of cardiorespiratory arrestCirculatory problems

  11. FLS The ABCDE approach to the critically ill patient A… B… C… D… E…

  12. FLS • Call for help early • Priority of treatment • Complete initial assessment • Reassessment • safety • Patient responsiveness to treatment ABCDE approachRules

  13. FLS Recognition of airway obstruction • Talking • Difficulty breathing, distressed, choking • Shortness of breath • Noisy breathing • stridor, wheeze, gurgling • See-saw respiratory pattern, accessory muscles ABCDE approachAirway

  14. FLS Treatment of airway obstruction • Oxygen • Airway opening - i.e. head tilt, chin lift, jaw thrust • Simple adjuncts • Advanced techniques - e.g. LMA, tracheal tube ABCDE ApproachAirway

  15. FLS Recognition of breathing problems • Look • Inspect respiratory distress, accessory muscles, cyanosis, respiratory rate, chest deformity, conscious level • Listen • Auscultate breath sounds, noisy breathing • Feel • palpat expansion, percussion, tracheal position • Pulse oxymetry ABCDE approachBreathing

  16. FLS Treatment of breathing problems • Airway • Oxygen • Treat underlying cause - e.g. drain pneumothorax - e.g . Nebulizers • Support breathing if inadequate - e.g. ventilate with bag valve mask ABCDE approachBreathing

  17. FLS • Look at the patient • Pulse – central pulse (carotid) peripheral pulse • Peripheral perfusion capillary refill time ( normally <2 sec) • Blood pressure • Monitor ABCDE approachCirculation

  18. FLS • Airway, Breathing • Oxygen • IV access, take blood sample and lab investigations • Treat cause • Give fluids • Haemodynamic monitoring • MONA if acute coronary syndrome Treatment ABCDE approachCirculation

  19. ABCDE approachDisability AVPU or GCS?

  20. Disability Glasgow Coma Score Global Injury Solutions

  21. FLS • AVPU or GCS, and pupils • Treatment - ABC • Treat underlying cause • Blood glucose • if < 3 mmol l-1 give glucose ABCDE approachDisability

  22. FLS • Remove clothes to enable examination - e.g. injuries, bleeding, rashes • Avoid heat loss • Maintain dignity ABCDE approachExposure

  23. FLS Anyquestions

  24. FLS • Early recognition of patients at risk may prevent cardiorespiratory arrest • Airway, breathing or circulation problems can cause cardiorespiratory arrest • ABCDE approach to recognise and treat patients at risk of cardiorespiratory arrest Summary
