Introduction- Pediatric BLS
Pediatric Basic Life Support is a life-saving skill comprising of high quality CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) and Rescue Breadths with Artificial External Defibrillator (AED).
- Bystander CPR - Bystander resuscitation plays a key role in out of hospital CPR. A study by Maryam Y Naim et all found out communities where bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation is practiced have better survival outcomes in children less than 18 years from out of hospital cardiac arrest.[1]
- Two studies (Total children 781) concluded that about half of the Cardio-Respiratory arrests in children under 12 months occur outside the hospital.
- Good Prognostic Factor upon arrival at the emergency department-
- The short interval between arrest and arrival at the hospital.
- Less than 20 minutes of resuscitation in the emergency department.
- Less than 2 doses of epinephrine.

Causes of Cardiopulmonary arrest in children.
- Ventricular Fibrillation
- Pulseless Ventricular tachycardia
- Children with preexisting cardiac disorders
- Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
- Anomalous coronary artery (from the pulmonary artery)
- Long QT syndrome
- Myocarditis
- Drug intoxication (eg, tricyclic antidepressants, digoxin, cocaine)
- Commotio cordis [1]
