Beyond ACLS: The Great Debate with Epinephrine, Airway Management & POCUS
10/30/2019
While ACLS provides us with a framework in treating adult victims of cardiac arrest (CA) or other cardiopulmonary emergencies, EMS is different than many environments in medicine. We get minimal information at the time of patient arrival while the disease process that is taking place has not quite defined itself. We are constantly expected to acutely manage and resuscitate anyone, many times without crucial information. Our job therefore should be to ensure coronary and cerebral perfusion are at their highest quality, but also simultaneously putting the pieces of the puzzle together to figure out why our patient is in CA. This session will explore epi drips, airway management and POCUS during OHCA.
