Compressions
•Art pressures 60/20
•Clinical assessment of heart chamber size and valve motion during
CPR using 2D ECHO, AM Heart J 1981 (4 patients)
•LV dimensions don’t change
•Aortic and Mitral valves are both open during compression
•Increased flow in RV during relaxation
•Conclusions: improved cardiocirculatory dynamics secondary to
thoracic pressure, not compression of LV
Compressions
• Haemodynamics of cardiac arrest and resuscitation,
Curr Opin Crit Care, 2006 (Review Article)
•In V-fib blood continues to flow until p-aorta = p-RV
•Aorta flow during compression
•Coronary flow during relaxation
•Carotid flow reaches a plateau after a few minutes of CPR, and
dramatically drops with short pauses, with a recovery time of a few
minutes.

Carpenter et al. Resuscitation 2003
– Seattle study
– Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest
– Reviewed post shock rhythms of 366 pts at
various times 5, 10, 20, 30, 60 seconds
– Compared Monophasic vs Biphasic
defibrillators

Therapeutic Hypothermia


Hippocrates advocated packing bleeding patients in
snow
Profound hypothermia Lancet 1959
– Ronald Belsey (Cardiac surgery) performed cardiac surgery
in cooled patients with no perfusion > 60 minutes
– Research was inconsistent
– Predisposition to infection
– Fell out of favor

Safar et al Crit Care Medicine 1988
– FV in dogs better outcome if hypothermic
Therapeutic Hypothermia

New England Journal of Medicine 2002
– 2 large randomized clinical studies in
humans were published
– Induced hypothermia after cardiac
arrest
– Control group
– Favorable neurologic outcomes in
treatment groups.
Australian Study

out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with

AHA recommendations
– 2003: “Mild hypothermia may be beneficial to
neurological outcome and is likely to be well
tolerated”
– 2005: “Unconscious adult patients with ROSC
after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest should be
cooled to 32-34C for 12-24 hours when the initial
rhythm was VF. Similar therapy may be beneficial
to non VF arrest. Further research is needed.”
Methods of Achieving
Hypothermia

External
– Selective regional cooling: (Head and neck)
– Generalized: Entire body (cooling blanket)

Internal
– IV (Cold IV Fluids)
– Bladder Lavage with cold fluid
– Invasive central vein devices.

External / Internal combinations
Arctic Sun
Cincinnati Sub-0
Blanketrol II
Caircooler
Icy-Cath
Cold IV Fluid

Bernard et al. Resuscitation 2003
– 30ml/kg 4C RL reduced temp 35.5 to 33.8C.
– Initiated in ED.

Kim et al. Circulation 2005
– 2L 4C NS reduced temp by 1.4C in 30 min.

Polder man et al. Crit Care Med 2005
– 2 Liters 4C NS bolus (+) Cooling blanket
– Reduced temp from 36.9 to 32.9 in one hour

No complications in either study were
reported.
Pre-hospital Cooling

Kim et al. Circulation 2007
– 125 patients
– Randomized to standard care, vs.. Prehospital cooling with 2 liters cold IVF.
– 63 (Hypothermia group)
• Decrease temp by 1.25C
• No complications
– 62 (Standard)
• Increase in temp by 1C
Where should hypothermia be
initiated?
No definitive recommendations by the
AHA yet
 Increasing volume of literature

– Cold IVF
– Safe
– Effective
– Fast

Further research needed
A cooling treatment is credited with helping Dr. Syed Hassan Naqvi recover from Cardiac arrest.
