Reversible causes of cardiac arrest?

Описание: 💀 With all CA and standard ACLS measures, we need to consider reversible causes and increase the likelihood of a successful resuscitation.

👺 H include hypovolemia, hypoxia, hypothermia, hypo/hyperkalemia, and hydrogen ions. T’s include thrombosis (cardiac), thrombosis (pulmonary), cardiac tamponade, tension pneumothorax, and toxins.

🐆 Definitive therapy for reversible causes may include blood transfusions, electrolyte correction such as utilizing the acute hyperkalemia cocktail, reperfusion via systemic thrombolytics, and needle decompression.

💉 High quality CPR maintains blood flow, perfuses vital organs, and increases rates of ROSC. Limit interruptions in CPR and when in doubt, its better to give CPR than not.
