DESCRIPTION
This webcast will focus on strategies that can be used by the EMS community to improve survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The American Heart Association (AHA) Guidelines for CPR and Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC) are based on evidence evaluation from the 2010 International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science with Treatment Recommendations (CoSTR 2010), of which the American Heart Association was a founding member. During this presentation, you’ll learn: •Evidence based strategies for improving survival from out of hospital cardiac arrest •AHA programs and products for use by the Emergency Medical Services community •How to develop a localized action plan to improve outcomes The recommendations in the AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC confirm the safety and effectiveness of many approaches, acknowledge that other approaches may not be optimal, and recommend new treatments that have undergone evidence evaluation. Our science, products and programs are designed to help you increase the probability of prompt bystander CPR and improve the quality of resuscitation provided by rescuers.

IssuesCPR Component Challenges to Improving Quality
Recognition Failure to recognize gasping as sign, unreliable Pulse Detection
Initiation of CPR Low Bystander CPR response Rate, Incorrect Dispatch instructions
Compression Rate Slow compression Rate
Compression Depth Shallow compression Depth
Chest Wall Recoil Rescuer Leaning on Chest
11
Issues (cont’d)CPR Component Challenges to Improving Quality
Compression Interruptions Excessive interruptions for pulse check, Ventilations, defibrillation, intubation, IV access, other
Ventilations Ineffective ventilations, prolonged interruptions in compressions , excessive ventilations (especially with airway)
Defibrillation Prolonged time to defibrillator avail, prolonged interruptions in chest compressions pre- and post shocks
Team Performance Delayed rotation, leading to rescuer fatigue and decay in compression quality, poor communication among rescuers leading to unnecessary interruptions in compressions

Call to Action
Emergency Medical Services should develop localized plans to optimize survival. These plans
will be based on data and address individual links in the chain of survival, as well as all the
links together.
Link 1: Immediate Recognition and Activation
• Failure to recognize gasping • Unreliable pulse detection• Delayed 9-1-1 activation
Tools and Resources
>>insert banner from http://www.heart.org/HEARTORG/News/PublicServiceAnnouncements/Public-Service-Announcements_UCM_312002_SubHomePage.jsp# <<
Call to Action
EMS agencies can access existing print, radio, and video Public Service Announcements to use
in their communities to increase awareness, response and 9-1-1 activation.
Link 2: Early CPR
• Low bystander CPR response rates• Incorrect dispatch instructions

23
Tools and Resources
Call to Action
EMS providers and agencies should use tools such as Hands-Only™ CPR; self-instructional and
certification programs to support community education.
Link 3: Rapid Defibrillation
• Delayed time to defibrillator use• Interruptions in chest compressions pre- and
post-shocks
Tools and Resources
Call to Action
EMS providers and agencies should use tools such as the AED Implementation Guide and
Scientific Statements to support rapid defibrillation
Link 4: Effective ACLS
• Slow compression rate• Shallow compression depth• Rescuer leaning on the chest
Link 4: Effective ACLS
• Compression interruptions• Excessive interruptions for:
Rhythm/Pulse Checks, Ventilations, Defibrillation,Intubation, and Intravenous Access
Iterative Process
Appropriate education
G2010 Evidence, eLearning
Simulation & frequency of
training
Structured & Supported Debriefing
Competency
31
Feedback and Debriefing
• Provider focused• Assist in improving
performance• Improved adherence
to Guidelines• Higher rate of ROSC
32
Tools and Resources
Maintenance of Competency
34
• Emerging trends supporting continuous maintenance of competence • Evidence that basic and advanced life support skills decay rapidly
• Optimal mechanism for maintenance of competence is not known
35
CPR Fractions
Call to Action
EMS providers and agencies should practice resuscitation skills and team performance,
incorporating the measuring of CPR fractions and debriefing as methods for
improving quality and outcomes.
Link 5: Post-Cardiac Arrest Care
• Therapeutic Hypothermia• Post ROSC 12-lead ECG• Transport to Cardiac Arrest Center
Tools and ResourcesPart 9: Post Cardiac Arrest Care: 2010 American Heart Association Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care.

Call to Action
EMS providers and agencies are integral to the advancement of post resuscitation care and
evolving systems of care. The importance of your role at all levels of
implementation is immeasurable.
