Product Information

Send or go for help – call the relevant emergency number on your mobile phone where possible. Only leave the child if no other way of obtaining help is possible. The ideal interval for re-training is unknown but it is likely that frequent top ups, several times a year, are more effective. Immediate defibrillation may be considered if VF or pulseless VT is diagnosed during an intercycle pause ( IIb-B). 2,6 A laryngoscope should always be used and tube placement confirmed by visualization (tube passing through the arytenoids), auscultation, observing chest wall movement, and capnometry. 2,4 Safety First Aid's opening hours are between 8.30am and 5.00pm Monday to Friday, and our sales team will be happy to deal with any queries you might have during these times.

Place the heel of your hand on the centre of the person's chest, then place the palm of your other hand on top and press down by 5 to 6cm (2 to 2.5 inches) at a steady rate of 100 to 120 compressions a minute. a) Alsco agrees to supply Rental and Management of the First Aid Kits in accordance with this agreement and the customer hereby agrees to appoint Alsco its sole supplier of Managed First Aid services for the terms and conditions hereinafter appearing.This guideline applies to all infants and children excluding newborn infants (unless no other option is available at birth) When a foreign body enters the airway the child or infant reacts immediately by coughing in an attempt to expel it. A spontaneous cough is likely to be more effective and safer than any manoeuvre a rescuer might perform. Place 2 fingers in the middle of the infant's chest and push down by 4cm (about 1.5 inches), which is approximately one-third of the chest diameter. The quality (depth) of chest compressions is very important. Use the heel of 1 hand if you can't achieve a depth of 4cm using the tips of 2 fingers. Continue with cycles of 30 chest compressions and 2 rescue breaths until the child begins to recover or emergency help arrives. Similarly, an EtCO 2 reading may not be obtained (or a reading of zero may be obtained) immediately following endotracheal intubation in a patient suffering from CPA. 5

Immediate defibrillation for pulseless VT/VF of less than 4 minutes duration as there is minimal ischemia during this time ( I-B) 2,6 Attach the electrode pads to the person's (who has sustained cardiac arrest) bare chest according to the position shown on the AED or on the pads.

In cases where paediatric BLS providers are unable or unwilling to start with ventilations, they should proceed with compressions and add ventilations into the sequence when able (another provider, equipment available).

Of note, naloxone should be administered to CPA patients with suspected opioid toxicity ( I-B), and may be considered in all patients that recently received opioids ( IIb-B). 2,6 If IV access is unavailable, intraosseous access is obtained; if intraosseous access is unavailable, intratracheal administration may be performed ( IIb-B) (see Intratracheal Administration & Drugs). 2,6 Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (hallmarked by inflammatory system activation and excess circulating cytokines)

A short period of seizure-like movements can occur at the start of cardiac arrest. Assess the person after the seizure has stopped: if unresponsive and with absent or abnormal breathing, start CPR. Guidelines 2021 are based on the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation 2020 Consensus on Science and Treatment Recommendations for Basic Life Support and Automated External Defibrillation and the European Resuscitation Council Guidelines for Resuscitation (2021) Adult Basic Life Support. Refer to the ERC guidelines publications for supporting reference material. It is the intention that this Agreement will form the basis of an undertaking between Alsco and the Customer by defining clearly all aspects of the service.

Repeat these compressions at a rate of 100 to 120 times a minute until an ambulance arrives or for as long as you can.

Is the dog breathing? Look and listen. Can you see their chest rising and falling? Can you feel breath coming from their nostrils? Vasopressor therapy is directed at increasing systemic vascular resistance in an effort to increase coronary and cerebral blood flow. 6 Epinephrine, a nonselective adrenergic agonist, is the most commonly used vasopressor for CPR therapy; it affects both alpha and beta adrenergic receptors. Alpha adrenergic stimulation causes peripheral vasoconstriction. Beta adrenergic stimulation has positive inotropic and chronotropic effects, which increase myocardial oxygen demand and, therefore, may be detrimental in CPA patients. 6

Perform bystander CPR when confronted with a child in CA after trauma, provided it is safe to do so. Anti-choking devices: A recent systematic review focussed on these devices. Despite broad study inclusion criteria, the review identified only small case series, manikin studies, and cadaver studies, which were limited to a single device type. No reports of harm were identified, but their limited use in clinical practice means it is too early to conclude that their use is harm-free. The review recommended the need for further research before device use can be supported in practice.
