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.

Causes of Cardiac arrest(CA) in children.

  • Ventricular Fibrillation
  • Pulseless Ventricular tachycardia
  • Children with preexisting cardiac disorders
    • Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
    • Anomalous coronary artery (from the pulmonary artery)
    • Long QT syndrome
    • Myocarditis
  • Drug intoxication (eg, tricyclic antidepressants, digoxin, cocaine)
  • Commotio cordis [1]

    • Age - After Puberty - Adult Basic Life Support

Pediatric Basic Life Support Guidelines (Revised American Heart Association 2019 Guidelines)

  • Pulse present but cannot breathe.
  • No Pulse and not breathing.
