CARDIOPULMONARY RESUSCITATION (CPR) IN PEDIATRIC PRACTICE
WHY LEARN CPR ? When a person has a cardiac arrest, survival depends on immediately getting CPR from someone nearby. Almost 90 percent of people who die from cardiac arrest in the out-of-hospital setting. CPR, especially if performed in the first few minutes of cardiac arrest, can double or triple a person’s chance of survival.

PATHWAYS TO CARDIAC ARREST
RECOGNITION OF CARDIAC ARREST 1. Absence of signs of cardio respiratory function No movement No breathing or No response to rescue breaths No pulse 2. Arrest rhythm on the cardiac monitor (Note: Monitoring is not mandatory for recognition of cardiac arrest)
INITIATION OF CPR To decrease the time to initiation of chest compressions and reduce “no blood flow” time. Time to first ventilation is delayed by only approximately 6 seconds.
Provide CPR even when the unresponsive victim has occasional gasps. Conventional CPR (chest compressions and rescue breaths) should be provided for pediatric cardiac arrests. Compression-only CPR is effective in patients with a primary cardiac event, if rescuers are unwilling or unable to deliver breaths, AHA recommend rescuers perform compression-only CPR for infants and children in cardiac arrest.

CHEST COMPRESSIONS RATE: 100 to 120 / min DEPTH: (≥ 1/3 of anteroposterior diameter of chest) Infants – 1.5 inches (4 cm) Children – 2 inches (5 cm) Adolescents – at least 2 inches (5 cm) but not greater than 2.4 inches (6 cm).

AUTOMATED EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATOR (AED) < 8 yrs; < 25 kg AED with dose attenuator
MANUAL DEFIBRILLATOR The recommended first energy dose for defibrillation is 2 J/kg. If a second dose is required, it should be doubled to 4 J/kg. Subsequent doses 4 J/kg up to maximum of 10 J/kg.
Placement of pads or paddles Children (>1 yr; >10 kg – adult size) Right upper chest below the clavicle Lateral to the left nipple below the axilla Infants (<1 yr; <10kg – infant size) Sternum below the mammary line Back between two scapulae
