ARREST
Background
Cardiac arrest cases may rarely / not always available every day
as a healthcare practitioner. But every member of a health
practitioner must master and competent in performing basic life
support for cardiac arrest which is a Life-Threatening case.
Defenition
Cardiopulmonarry arrest is an Abrupt cessation of
cardiac mechanical function, which may be reversible
with prompt intervention but will lead to death in its
absence
Rare spontaneous reversions; the likelihood of
successful intervention is related to the mechanism of
arrest, clinical setting, and prompt return of circulation
Epidemiology
BLOOD FLOW
Blood flow start from the Left
Ventricle and go to the all of the
body and then there is an oxygen
and carbondioxyde change happen
at there. After that the blood going
back to the heart by venous return
and enter the right atrium by
superior and inferior vena cava and
then to the right ventricle pass the
tricuspid valve. The blood then being
pumped to the lung by the
pulmonary artery, the gas exchange,
and the blood go back to the left
atrium. Go to left ventricle pass the
mitral valve and is pumped to all of
the body again.
ELECTRICAL
CONDUCTION
Etiology
The loss of function of the heart in cardiac arrest can be
caused by conditions such as :
1.
2.
3.
Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy
4.
5.
6.
Coronary Artery
Abnormalities
Is the most cause (80%) of the cardiac arrest and
can be happened because of :
Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy
Is 10% of the most cause of the cardiac arrest. This
disease can cause an arrhythmia of the heart like
monomorphic or polymorphic tachycardia ventricle
which can make an cardiac arrest and sudden death
Pathophysiology
All of the etiology will make an abnormal electrical
conduction, that is :
1.
Ventricle Fibrillation
2.
3.
4.
Asystole
Ventricular Fibrillation
Fine Type VF
Coarse Type VF
Atrioventricular dissociation
Asystole
Treatment
The Principal of cardiac arrest treatment is doing a CHAIN OF SURVIVAL
which is consist by :
1.
2.
Early CPR
3.
Early defibrillation if there an AED, better we use it than doing CPR (in
Hospital cardiac arrest case) but just For VF and Pulseless VT, not for
asystole or PEA
4.
5.
AHA 2010
Guideline
for cardiac
arresst
CPR tehnique
Prognosis
The Result is based from how fast we recognize and how fast
we do CPR. This is because of 3 phase that happen in Cardiac
arrest (example VF)
