Healthcare
professional CPR
differs from lay
public CPR
Compression only CPR
• What about chest compression only CPR?
• AHA coined the phrase “Hands-only CPR”
• Why does this work?
• What data supports this?
– Arizona Data
– SOS Kanto
• When is it appropriate to use this?
– Technically, not in the hospital
– Technically, not for health care professionals
Compression-Only CPR
• CPP (Coronary Perfusion Pressure) is how
blood is circulated through the heart
• Happens during diastole
• CPP builds with uninterrupted compressions
• CPP drops with interruptions in compressions
Compression-Only CPR
Compression-Only CPR
• Blood in the body is completely oxygenated
at the time of cardiac arrest
• Enough O2 for several minutes of CPR
• Early in CPR ventilations add very little, they
detract from compressions and CPP
substantially!
Compression-Only CPR
• Bag-Mask Ventilation (BMV) is a difficult skill
• Mouth-to-mouth is even more challenging
• Most breaths are ineffective
• People are afraidto go “mouth to mouth”
• This often deters would-be rescuers

Compression Depth
• Aside from early defibrillation, quality
compressions improve survival from cardiac
arrest more than anything else
• In 2010 depth increased from 1.5-2 inches to
greater than 2 inches
• Every 5 mm of increased compression depth
results in statistically significant improvement
in survival!
Compression Rate
• This was changed from ~100 compressions
per min to at least 100 compressions per min
• Studies have shown that the more
compressions the better
• “Another one Bites the Dust” vs “Staying
Alive” – sound bites?
Complete Recoil
• To maximize the effect of each compression,
the heart must be allowed to completely refill
• Molding of the chest accentuates incomplete
recoil!

Minimizing Interruptions
• The overall number of compressions given
has been linked to survival in animal and
human studies
• As little as 5 seconds without compressions
prior to defib reduces shock efficacy
• Many of the changes in BLS and ACLS in 2005
and 2010 reflect this theme!
• Remember compressions are the MOST
IMPORTANT part of ACLS
Minimizing Interruptions
• Once a code is called or CPR initiated, only 3
things justify interrupting compressions
– Rhythm check
– Shock
– Ventilations (if synchronous)
• Interruptions usually NOT warranted in:
– Starting IVs or Central Lines
– Intubating the patient (weigh the need for this)
– Checking the rhythm AFTER a shock

AVOID EXCESSIVE VENTILATION!
• Excessive ventilations are harmful for many
reasons:
– Impair venous return
– Decreases CPP
– Barotrauma
– Gastric insufflation
– Limited cardiac output means there is less
capacity for gas exchange. Added ventilations
are fruitless
AVOID EXCESSIVE VENTILATION!
• The proper rate is 8-10 breaths/minute if
dead, 10-12 breaths/minutes if respiratory
arrest only.
• This is 6-8 seconds/breath if dead or 5-6
seconds/breath if respirator arrest only.
• If you don’t count this out, YOU WILL
HYPERVENTILATE!

Waveform Capnography
• Continuous quantitative waveform capnography
(End-Tidal CO2 or ETCO2) is now recommended
throughout the periarrest period.
• Think of this as exhaust from a car
• Capnography helps determine quality of
compressions, ET tube placement, and
appropriate ventilation rates post-resuscitation
• Many devices commercially available both as
nasal prongs and as a vent circuit interface.

Advanced Airway
• ALCS courses now teach and test on
nasopharyngeal airway (NPA) and
orophayngeal airway (OPA) placement but
NOT direct laryngoscopy for endotracheal
tube (ETT) placement.
• OPA is measured mouth to jaw
• NPA is measure nose to ear
• ALWAYS weigh the need for an advanced
airway.

Intraosseous Line
• AHA, European Resuscitation Council, and
ILCOR all endorse the IO approach
• “if intravenous access is difficult or
impossible the provider should consider the
intraosseous route”
• Several commercially available products:
– Standard needle
– BIG gun
– EZ-IO
Steps for IO insertion
• Steps for proximal tibia
insertion are illustrated
on the inside of each
• driver case.
Proximal humerus and
distal tibia may also be
• used.
Pressure infusion on
conscious patients will
require 20-40mg. 2%
Lidocaine infused after
starting IO (1-2cc’s)
