Overview
Pediatric Basic Life Support is a life-saving skill comprising of high quality CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) and Rescue Breadths with Artificial External Defibrillator (AED).
- Bystander CPR - Bystander resuscitation plays a key role in out of hospital CPR. A study by Maryam Y Naim et all [1] found out communities, where bystander CPR is practiced, have better survival outcomes in children less than 18 years from out of hospital cardiac arrest(CA)
- Two studies (Total children 781) concluded that about half of the Cardio-Respiratory arrests in children under 12 months occur outside the hospital.
- Good Prognostic Factor upon arrival at the emergency department-
- The short interval between arrest and arrival at the hospital.
- Less than 20 minutes of resuscitation in the emergency department.
- Less than 2 doses of epinephrine.[2]
