emergency.
3. A child is defined as the age of 1 to the onset of
PUBERTY.
4. For infants and children up to the age of 17 years,
you MUST OBTAINCONSENT from the child’s parent
or legal guardian
3. CHAIN OF SURVIVAL
1. Prevention of ARREST
2. Early high quality bystander CPR
3. Rapid activation of EMERGENCY response
system
4. Effective ADVANCED life support
5. Integrated post cardiac arrest CARE
4. Check for safety
Check for response
shout for Help
Check for pulse
Give cpr
Check airway
Check breathing
Simultaneously
6. SAFETY
Check for Your Safety
Avoid danger to –
• You
• Others
• Casualty
Make the area safer or remove
yourself and casualty to an area of
safety.
If an area is too dangerous stand
back and call emergency services
8. response
Response may vary
according to age of child
Rubbing on the palms of
the hands or soles of an
infant’s feet may elicit a
response
Can also use the COWS
Method.
•C an you hear me?
•O pen your eyes.
•W hat is your name?
•S queeze my hand
9. Shout for help
Help can be ANYONE
nearby.
o ACTIVATE Emergency
response system
o And GET an Automated
External Defibrillator.
12. Cpr - assessment
Most important step is recognising need for
CPR.
CPR should be commenced immediately in
children if;
– Unresponsive
– Not breathing normally
– Not moving, signs of life.
Lay rescuers should begin CPR, based upon the
above information. Checking for a pulse is not
required or recommended.
For Health care personnel , the carotid or Femoral
pulse are typically the easiest to assess. If pulse
not identified within <10 seconds CPR should
commence
13. HIGH QUALITY Cpr
S tart COMPRESSION within 10 seconds of recognition of arrest
P USH HARD ,PUSH FAST :
Rate at least 100/min
Depth at least 5 cm in child and 4 cm for infants
Complete chest Recoil
Minimize Interruptions
Give effective Breathing
Avoid excessive ventilation
Cycle : 5 cycles of [30:2] in approximately 2minutes. Recheck
for signs of life at the end of cycle
Ratio : 30 compression to 2 ventilation for 1 rescuer
: 15 compression to 2 ventilation for 2 rescuer
14. Cpr :
Where to do it
Compressions are done in the midline on the lower
half of the sternum or the ‘centre of the chest
How to do it
Infants(<1yo)
Use 2 fingers over the centre of the chest.
Compress to 1/3 depth of chest wall
(~4cm).
Child(1-8yrs)
Use heel of 1 hand, or alternatively 2 hands,
with one positioned on top of the other.
Compress 1/3 depth of chest wall (~5cm) in
the centre of the chest.
Greater than 8yrs = same as adult
16. Airway clearance
Clearing the airway
Turn child on one side.
Clearing visible foreign material from
mouth and nostrils.
If suction is available use suction to clear
material.
Back Blows
Chest Thrust
Placing the child in the recovery
position, if they are breathing, and post
airway clearance can be useful.
17. Airway maneuvers
Airway manoeuvres and appropriate positioning in children can differ from
adults, dependant upon size.
Infants (<1yr) should have their head in the horizontal or neutral position
Head tilt/Chin lift
Tilt head backwards (not neck)
Support jaw at the point of the
chin
Jaw Thrust
Good if neck injury is suspected
Difficulty with obtaining
adequate airway with Head tilt/chin
lift.
19. breathing
Look, Listen & Feel is now omitted
If not breathing, and the casualty has
a patent airway, rescue breathing
should be commenced.
1 breath after every 3 seconds
In clinical situations use a face mask
to deliver breaths.
Seal mask against face using index finger and
thumb
Deliver air over 1 second to make chest rise.
20. In Infant
• Key difference :
1. Location of pulse check – Brachial
Artery
2. Technique of Delivering
compression
Two finger for singel rescuer
Two thumb for two rescuer
3. Compression depth - approximately
4 cms
4. Compression ventilation rate &
ratio are same
22. Using an AED
(automated electronic defibrillator)
If a Defibrillator (Automated External
Defibrillator – AED) is available, apply and
follow voice prompts.
CPR continues until the AED is present, all the pads are
in place and the AED is on.
AEDs accurately identify heart rhythms as either
‘shockable’ or ‘non-shockable’.
Remember when shocking the casualty to get
everyone to stand well back. Do not touch them!
