Overview

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 CPR is practiced, have better survival outcomes in children less than 18 years from out of hospital cardiac arrest(CA)
  • 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.

Changes made in the new AHA guidelines 2010,2015,2017,2019

According to the 2010,2015,2017,2019 Pediatric BLS Guidelines, the following changes were made and are followed:

Pediatric BLS algorithm for single and 2 or more rescuers

  • For single rescuers start with 30 compressions followed by 2 rescue breaths.
  • For 2 or more rescuers start with 15 compressions followed by 2 rescue breaths and then both rescuers should change the positions alternating between compressions and breathing every 2 minutes.

Change of order of A-B-C TO C-A-B

  • A-B-C is airway, breathing, and compressions in that order. C-A-B is compression, airway, and breathing.
  • This change was advised by the 2010 guidelines but in 2015 there is more evidence supporting this sequence of CPR.
  • Evidence
    • Manikin studies in both adult and children shows a decrease in time to achieve the first chest compressions by following C-A-B compared to A-B-C.
    • The delay in getting to ventilation was of 6 seconds compared with the new C-A-B compared to A-B-C

Chest compression rate and depth

  • Adult model for compression rate and depth is to be followed for pediatrics cases due to lack of evidence.
  • More studies need to be found for the pediatric rate of compressions.
  • A study by Sutton RM et al reported among 87 pediatric CPR of more than 8 years of age, found that compression depth greater than 51 mm for more than 60% of the compressions during 30-second epochs within the first 5 minutes was associated with improved 24-hour survival.[1]

Compression-only (Hands-Only) CPR [1]
