Part 7: Adult Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support

چکیده
The combined use of vasopressin and epinephrine offers no advantage to using standard-dose epinephrine in cardiac arrest. Also, vasopressin does not offer an advantage over the use of epinephrine alone. Therefore, to simplify the algorithm, vasopressin has been removed from the Adult Cardiac Arrest Algorithm–2015 Update. Low end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO ) in intubated patients after 20 minutes of CPR is associated with a very low likelihood of resuscitation. While this parameter should not be used in isolation for decision making, providers may consider low ETCO after 20 minutes of CPR in combination with other factors to help determine when to terminate resuscitation. 2

متن کامل[European Resuscitation Council Guidelines 2000 for adult advanced life support].
The European Resuscitation Council (ERC) last issued guidelines for Advanced Life Support (ALS) in 1998 [1]. These were based on the 1997 International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) Advisory Statements [2]. In 1999 and 2000 representatives of ILCOR, at the invitation of the American Heart Association, met on a number of occasions in Dallas to agree a Consensus on Science upon which...
