Chapter 33 Emergency Nursing Emergency Care Area Requirements Central Easy location access Dedicated “crash table” Basic necessary equipment Oxygen Suction source unit Surgical lighting Multiple electrical outlets 2 Crash Cart Organize and prioritize drawers according to the ABC’s A=airway B=breathing Thoracocentesis patient Venous materials for emergency respiratory access (C=circulation) Venous access drawer Various sizes and lengths catheters 3 4 Emergency Drugs Well organized and labeled Current dose chart Syringes and saline flush nearby 5 Laboratory Equipment Minimum Lactate database “QATS” testing Additional Blood testing gases Coagulation Commercial Ethylene testing test kits glycol 6 Fluid Therapy Goals and objectives Maintaining hydration Replacing fluid losses Treatment of shock Treatment of hypoproteinemia Increase urine output Correcting Providing acid–base or electrolyte disturbances nutritional support 7 Fluid Therapy in Shock To correct poor perfusion, replace deficits rapidly Goal: expand and maintain the intravascular space Shock fluid rates Combination of therapy crystalloids and colloids 8 Principles of Triage Set protocols for a consistent, thorough response CRASH Be PLAN well-organized Expect the unexpected 9 Cardiopulmonary Arrest Cessation of breathing and effective blood circulation 10 Cardiopulmonary Arrest Complication Potential of any critical illness complication in healthy patients undergoing anesthesia 11 Definitions CPR = Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation 12 Providing ventilation and assisted circulation CPCR = Cardiopulmonary Cerebral Resuscitation Acronym emphasizes the importance of maintaining perfusion and oxygen delivery to the central nervous system during and after an arrest Patients at Risk For an Arrest Respiratory difficulty Heart disease Severe hypothermia Multi-organ failure Trauma Shock 13 Patients at Risk for an Arrest Anesthetized patients Monitor for unexplained changes in anesthetic depth Frequently monitor vital signs during entire procedure Monitor closely after anesthesia Support perfusion with fluids, heating pads 14 Vagal Arrest Caused by heightened vagus nerve stimulation or vagal tone Common diseases associated with vagal arrests Gastrointestinal Respiratory disease disease Neurological Ophthalmic disease disease 15 CPCR Protocols First step: Call for help! 16 CPCR Protocols Second step: Basic life support Airway Breathing Circulation Current protocols may advocate the “CABs” to reflect the importance of restoring perfusion during the resuscitation efforts. 17 CPCR Protocols A = Airway If respirations are absent or weak, the mouth should be opened and examined for possible obstruction 18 CPCR Protocols B = Breathing If the animal does not begin to breathe, the patient must receive ventilation assistance Mouth-to-nose resuscitation may be performed by sealing the lip margins and blowing into the animal’s nose Neonates may be intubated with a small red rubber catheter; oxygen can be delivered carefully by blowing through the tube 19 An endotracheal tube connected to an Ambu bag and oxygen source provides an ideal means to supply 100% oxygen and manual assisted ventilation. CPCR Protocols B = Breathing Visualize airway with laryngoscope Pull tongue forward with dry gauze to facilitate tube passage Suction Stylets readily available readily available 21 CPCR Protocols B = Breathing Begin ventilation First two breaths administered should be long breaths lasting a full 2 seconds followed by patient assessment If voluntary breathing is not immediate, manually ventilate 22 CPCR Protocols Ventilation Manually ventilated at a rate slightly higher than the expected normal Goal: expand the chest by 30% with a slightly longer expiration than inspiration Inspiratory Pressures 20 cm H2O dog 15 cm H2O cat 23 CPCR Protocols Failed respiratory resuscitation may respond to acupuncture to labial fulcrum Insert 25 g needle 1.0 mm and twist 24 CPCR Protocols C = Circulation Once the airway is established and ventilation provided, assess circulation Palpation of pulses (or apex heart beat) Auscultation of the heart 25 CPCR Protocols Once cardiac arrest has been confirmed, initiate chest compressions Positioning of animal Depends Shape chest) The on the animal’s size of the chest (barrel chest vs. deep and narrow caregiver’s ability to deliver adequate compressions 26 CPCR Protocols Place palm over heart; hand-over-hand Compress Place with elbows and weight of body stack of towels under patient’s heart Small dogs or cats may place sternal and compress ventrally “Tennis-ball” technique 27 CPCR Protocols Allow time between compressions for adequate ventricular filling Intermittent abdominal compression Alternate with external chest compression 29 CPCR Effectiveness 30 of CPCR Assessed by palpating for a pulse and evaluating mucous membrane color Use ECG if available Use ultrasound if available to assess the heart Open-Chest CPCR Indicated in animals with chest trauma Open-chest CPCR is only beneficial if initiated early in the resuscitation effort Open-chest CPCR should be made within 2 minutes of cardiopulmonary arrest 31
