CPR 2010: that was then, this is now…
EMS Education: déjà vu all over again
Airway basics
Oxygen or not?
Airway advances
Alternative devices
Video intubation
Where we are
What’s coming
Adult Chain of Survival: 2010
1. Immediate recognition and activation of
emergency response system
2. Early CPR with emphasis on
chest compressions
3. Rapid defibrillation
4. Effective ALS
5. Integrated post-cardiac arrest care
CPR Sequence
Change
 A-B-C to C-A-B
 Initiate chest compressions
before ventilations
Why?
 Reduce delay to
compressions
 Can be started immediately
 Emphasizes importance of
chest compressions
What? You’re Killing Me…
Standard CPR (with breaths) vs. CC alone

Berg et al, 2001
So, What Matters in CPR?
High quality, continuous compressions
So, don’t intubate, you say?
Many, many studies…
Bottom line:
“Rescuer procedural experience is
associated with improved patient survival
after out-of-hospital tracheal intubation of
cardiac arrest and medical
non-arrest patients.”
Wang, Yealy, et al. Out of Hospital Endotracheal Intubation
Experience and Patient Outcomes. Ann Emer Med, June
2010
Experience: real or simulated?
• Initial competence: 80 intubations
• Ongoing competence: 2 per month

emergency department: what are the training and
skills maintenance needs for UK emergency
physicians? Emerg Med J 2004;21:14-19
Scope of Problem (Population):
• 5% cannot be ventilated with a BVM
• 1% cannot be intubated without hospital
equipment
• It makes sense then, to
give paramedics better
tools
• Video laryngoscopy is a
better tool

RULES for Re-inserting a
Tracheostomy Tube
Preparation:
• Proper positioning of the patient
• “Ready to go” trach set includes
– Trach with obturator, ties, 10 cc syringe
• Suction equipment
• Water soluble lubricant (K-Y) or normal
saline/sterile water
BLS
RULES for Inserting a
Tracheostomy Tube
• When possible, lubricate
the new tube before
insertion
• If lubricant not available,
use saline or water
Prepare the trach tube with
lubricant

Then consider:
– Insert endotracheal tube into trach stoma
OR
– As last resort - orally intubate (if appropriate)
while maintaining occlusive dressing over the
stoma
O is for OBSTRUCTION
• Trachs may become obstructed:
– Secretions
– Improper positioning of the patient
– Bleeding
– Foreign body obstruction
– Trach “nose” clogged
– Tracheal edema (incredibly rare)
BLS

Catheter - Step 3
• Keep fingers at the

• Insert suction catheter
without applying suction
BLS
Suction: Step 4
Apply suction:
• Cover the opening on
catheter
• For NO MORE than
5-10 seconds (time
you can hold your
breath comfortably)
BLS
Obstruction: Single Cannula
• If unable to insert
suction catheter to a
reasonable depth
• Obstruction is IN the
tube itself
• Remove the
tracheostomy tube
Obstruction: Inner Cannula
BLS
• If a double lumen trach,
remove the inner cannula
• Replace with new inner
cannula
• If new inner cannula not
available, rinse original inner
cannula with water and
reinsert
• Reassess patient
BLS
Obstruction: Remove Trach
• If you have not been able to:
– ventilate the patient, or
– insert a suction catheter to a reasonable
depth
• You need to REMOVE the trach as the
obstruction is IN the tracheostomy tube

P is for Pneumothorax
• Pneumothorax can occur from:
– High Peak Inspiratory Pressures
– High Positive-End-Expiratory Pressures
– Vigorous BVM ventilations
– Underlying disease process (COPD, blebs,
etc)
Equipment: Problems
• Equipment problems may include:
– Oxygen issues (tank empty, disconnects,
etc)
– Tubing issues (disconnect, obstructed)
– Trach kit not “ready to go”
– Home vents:
• Power failure/unplugged from outlet
• Home ventilator failure/dead battery
• Home oxygen not connected properly
Equipment
BLS
• FOR ALL EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS:
-
Take the patient off the equipment
Attempt to ventilate the patient using BVM to trach
Assess for effectiveness of ventilations
Add supplemental oxygen if saturation < 94%
Take the equipment with the patient to the hospital

But, with High-Quality CPR…
Meet Howard Snitzer
• 54-years old, collapsed Jan 5,
2011 outside Don’s Foods in
Goodhue, MN (pop. 900)
• 2 dozen rescuers took turns
providing CPR for 96 minutes
• 6 shocks with first responder
AED, 6 more shocks by Mayo
Clinic Air Flight Medics
• Transported to Mayo Clinic
Cardiac Cath Lab
Why Not Quit?
• Thrombectomy, stent to LAD
• 10 days inpatient
• “The capnography told us not to
give up”
• EtCO2 averaged 35 (range 32 – 37)
So What’s the Goal
During CPR?
• Try to maintain a
minimum EtCO2 of 10
• Push
HARD (> 2”)
FAST (at least 100)
• Change rescuer
Every 2 minutes
Guidelines 2010
• Continuous quantitative waveform
capnography recommended for
intubated patients throughout periarrest period. In adults:
1. Confirm ETT placement
2. Monitor CPR quality
3. Detect ROSC with EtCO2 values
Guidelines 2005
EtCO2 recommended to confirm ET
tube placement
EtCO2 detects ROSC
• 90 pre-hospital intubated arrest patients
• 16 survivors
• 13 survivors: rapid rise in exhaled CO2
was the earliest indicator of ROSC
• Before pulse or blood pressure were
palpable

Another Change:
2010
• Tidal volume 600 ml
2005
• Tidal volume 800 ml
Should we make BVMs smaller?
Smaller Tidal Volumes:
• Some systems are using pedi BVMs
• Little data, some conflicts, mostly fear:
Dorges V, et al. Smaller tidal volumes with room-air are not sufficient to ensure adequate
oxygenation during bag-valve-mask ventilation. Resuscitation. 2000; March(44)1: 37-41.
Oxygen
• Oxygen therapy
has always been a
major component
emergency care
• Health care
providers believe
oxygen alleviates
breathlessness
Pete
41%
Mike
73%
Godlisten
84%
Effects of sudden hypoxia
(Removal of oxygen mask at altitude or in a pressure
chamber)
• Impaired mental function; onset at mean
SaO2 64%
• No evidence of impairment above 84%
• Loss of consciousness at mean
saturation of 56%
Notes:
– absence of breathlessness when healthy resting subjects
are exposed to sudden severe hypoxia
– mean SpO2 of airline passengers in a pressurized cabin falls
from 97% to 93% (average nadir 88.6%) with no symptoms
and no apparent ill effects
Akero A et al Eur Respir J. 2005;25:725-30
Cottrell JJ et al Aviat Space Environ Med.
1995;66:126-30
Hoffman C, et al. Am J Physiol 1946;145:685-692
“Normal” Oxygen Saturation
Normal range for healthy young adults is
approximately 96-98% (Crapo AJRCCM, 1999;160:1525)
Previous literature suggested a gradual fall with
advancing age…
However, a Salford/Southend UK
audit of 320 stable adults
aged >70 found:
Mean SpO2 = 96.7%
(2SD range 93.1-100%)
“Normal” nocturnal SpO2
• Healthy subjects in all age groups
routinely desaturate to an average nadir
of 90.4% during the night (SD 3.1%)*
(Gries RE et al Chest 1996; 110: 1489-92)
*Therefore, be cautious in interpreting a single oximetry
measurement from a sleeping patient. Watch the oximeter for a
few minutes if in any doubt (and the patient is otherwise stable)
as normal overnight dips are of short duration.

Oxygen
• Today, there are
numerous
textbooks on the

species.
Oxygen
• We are learning
that oxygen is a
two-edged sword
• It can be beneficial
• It can be harmful
The Chemistry of Oxygen
• Oxygen is highly
reactive; it has 2
unpaired electrons
• Molecules/atoms with
unpaired electrons are
extremely unstable and
highly-reactive
• Referred to as “free
radicals”
The Chemistry of Oxygen
• An excess of free-radicals damages cells
and is called oxidative stress.

– Keep sat 92-96%, tx only if hypoxic
– Use pulse oximetry to guide tx – max 98%

Prehospital Implications
Prehospital Implications
• Pulse oximetry guided
supplemental oxygen
• Protocols needed!
Prehospital Implication$
• Rationalizing the O2 administration
using pulse-oximetry reduces O2 usage.
• Oxygen cost-saving justifies oximeter
purchase:
– Where patient volume > 1,750 per year.
– Less frequently for lower call volumes, or
– Mean transport time is < 23 minutes.

use in the prehospital environment. Prehosp Emerg Care. 1999:14:245-250.
Can We Attenuate Oxidative Stress?
• Perhaps
• Clues lie with Carbon Monoxide
– Known in vitro and in vivo
antioxidant and anti-inflammatory
properties
– Critically ill patients  CO production
• Survivors produce more CO
• Non-survivors produce less or no CO
– Multiple human studies now using CO to
attenuate oxidative pulmonary stress
Endogenous Sources of CO
• Normal heme catabolism (breakdown):
• Only biochemical reaction in the body
known to produce CO
• Hemolytic anemia
• Sepsis, critical
illness…
Future Predictions
• Continued de-emphasis on airway and
ventilation
• Oxygen = danger:
– Pulse oximeters for everyone
– Venturi mask revival
– CPAP with titrated FiO2
• ET will remain
– High volume, good oversight, skilled
– Video tools will cost less & sell more
– SGA for everyone else (including EMT?)
• Capnography technology will evolve
