This document provides an overview of basic life support (BLS) training. It begins by asking what should be done if someone collapses in front of you. It advises to never shift the patient, keep an oxygen mask on, splash water on their face, or slap their face, but rather to start CPR immediately and revive the victim. It notes the "golden period" of cardiac arrest is just 4 minutes. The objectives are defined as explaining cardiac arrest, the pneumonic of BLS, high quality CPR concepts, the adult survival chain, and choking. It then provides details on BLS procedures including checking breathing and pulse, the 30:2 compression to breath ratio, and signaling for emergency help. It

Welcome to BLS Training Program
Basic Life Support
Dr.PRASATH.C Asso Professor of Anaesthesiology MAPIMS A question before we start?
What will u do when a person collapses in front
of you , become unconscious, no pulse and no breathing NEVER DO THESE..
Shifting the patient from ward to casualty / ICU
Keeping O2 BY VENTIMASK
Splashing water on the victims face
Start CPR Immediately and
Reviving the victim by slapping his face
Golden period is just 4 min 40
30
20

5 6 7 8 So start BLS Immediately Brain damage starts in 4-6 minutes of cardiac arrest is certain after 10 minutes without CPR Objectives of this presentation.. What is cardiac Arrest ?[is Heart attack is same ]
Define the Pneumonic of Basic Life Support
Identify the Basic Concepts of high quality CPR
Identify the chain of survival in Adult
Chocking History Normal physiology… Signs of Cardiac Arrest… No pulse
unconscious No breathing Sign of coma… No pulse
unconscious No breathing BLS contd.. BASIC LIFE SUPPORT
It is defined as life support without
the use of special equipments BLS
Verify the scene
1
•Victim is unresponsive •Shout for help •Activate Emergency response system 2 [Code blue] •Get AED /Defibrillator
Breathing / agonal Check pulse [ 10 sec ] 3 1. Survey the scene Rescuer and patient should be safe from traffic, fire, any other danger etc.
Positioning the patient
How and Where to check pulse …[not more than 10 seconds] 1, Breathing and conscious 2,Breathing and unconscious 1, Breathing and conscious 2,Breathing and unconscious PR+ Br + Pr + Br -- 3a 3b Pr- Br-
Monitor Pt , until •Rescue breath every
team arrives 4 High quality 5-6 sec] CPR 30 :2 •Activate EMS / Code GET AED / Defib Blue
5 AED arrives
6 Give 1 shock , RHYTHM Continue CPR until Resume CPR SHOCKABLE ? Team arrives
7 8 CPR – What is it… Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) the manual application of 1, chest compressions and 2, opening of Airway 3, breathing to patients who is in CARDIAC ARREST • Place the heel of one hand in the centre of the chest • Place other hand on top • Interlock fingers • Compress the chest – Rate 100 -120 min-1 – compression within 10 sec – Depth 2inches (5-6 cm) – Equal compression : relaxation – Minimize interruption between compression – Avoid excessive ventilation PR • When possible change CPR operator y C Qu al i t every 2 min High CONTINUE CPR
Rescue Breath One breath every 5-6 One Breath every 3-5 sec breaths Pulse check Carotid Carotid , For infant Brachial CPR Pulse ? ≤ 60 / min Choking Choking is one of the problems where
active BLS is needed
Vomit
Foreign body
Spasm (water is inhaled suddenly)
HEIMLICH MANEUVER Only in Conscious patient Give 5 abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver) Place fist just above the umbilicus Give 5 upward and inward thrusts Pregnant or obese? 5 chest thrusts Fists on sternum If unsuccessful, support chest with one hand and
give back blows with the other
Continue until successful or victim becomes unconscious CHOKING INFANTS Only in Conscious patient Position with head downward 5 back blows (check for expelled object) 5 chest thrusts (check for expelled object) Repeat WHEN CAN I STOP CPR Victim revives
Trained helper / code blue team
arrives Unsafe scene
Cardiac arrest of longer than 20 mins
Take home points….. Verify the scene 1
•Victim is unresponsive •Shout for help •Activate Emergency response system 2 [Code blue] •Get AED
team arrives 4 CPR 30 :2 5-6 sec] GET AED •Activate EMS / Code Blue
5 AED arrives
6 Give 1 shock , RHYTHM Continue CPR until Resume CPR SHOCKABLE ? Team arrives
7 8 30 : 2 [ mouth to mouth breathing / Bag and mask ventillation] If CPR done by trained EMS then uninteruppted CPR with one breath every 6th sec. Cardiac Arrest – Rescue breath every 6th sec Respiratory Arrest Rescue breath – one breath every 5-6 sec for adult, One breath every 3-5 sec for pediatric age For pediatric age [30 : 2 One rescuer ] [ 15 : 2 Two rescuer ] THANK YOU THANK YOU
