Rick Slavin is currently the director of students for Lincoln Law And Universities, in their Dubois College of Osteopathic Medicine in Tennessee. He's a licensed critical care paramedic. Hank Gathers was an first team basketball, all American at Loyola, Marymount University back in the late eighties, early nineties.
04:26
Sudden cardiac arrest accounts for more deaths across the nation than cancer does. 50% of deaths are related to sudden cardiac arrest. We just never we can never anticipate when or where this might happen.
07:51
The level of sudden cardiac arrest can be dependent upon the resources that are responding to you in your time of of emergency. There are some signals or some warning signs to patients who are are at risk for cardiac arrest.
11:09
65 to 70% of sudden cardiac arrests are caused by heart disease or heart failure. 10% are arithmogenic in nature, Wolf Parkinson White syndrome, Regatta syndrome.
14:31
10% of all sudden cardiac arrest is related to those type of issues. 15 to 25% are noncardiac in nature trauma. Overdoses are another reason for non cardiac cardiac arrest. Only about 11% of people survive prehospital cardiac arrest to be able to be discharged.
17:54
The National Association of EMTs recommends when to withhold CPR and resuscitative efforts. If a patient has a valid DNR or a valid physician's order for life standing treatment, we have to honor those those legal documents.
21:23
The American Heart Association has promoted a chain of survival for many years. Early CPR with emphasis on chest compressions is critical. Rapid defibrillation is also critical.
24:47
The Southern Cardiac Arrest Foundation says without anything, 10% for viable with bystanders CPR, 30% survival. With bystander CPR and AED, 50% survival, according to the foundation. Channel 8 survival underscores the importance of rapid defibrillation and effective CPR in cardiac emergency.
28:08
Rick Castle: I had an athlete in the mid nineties who had HCM, and it wasn't you know, now they can you the technology and the science is there that athlete can participate in some sport some level of activity. 25 years ago or 25 plus years ago, athlete came in as a freshman, and the the comment was is not that if he's going to have a cardiac arrest, is win.
31:23
When it comes to treating something like something like anaphylaxis, and Doctor Heath has seen anaphymic shock, you can think about treating that patient. But until you face a patient who can't breathe and has a blood pressure of 60 pound, and it's because they got stung by b, you cannot treat that patient fast enough.
34:38
Rick: You're you're gonna be you have to be comfortable being uncomfortable, especially in training. If you can slow that down, you know, be deliberate, and when you walk in, not run, be control of that situation.
38:04
I suspect, Doctor Heath, you chime in on this one. I suspect at some point, we'll have AEDs and can actually cardio work patients too. Woody has a question. You you could provide your thoughts on research coming in about sequential AED use.
41:40
Rick Castle: It depends on the study you look at. Doctor Heath: I've had a few, and I I haven't had any success. Aaron Kozl: Rick, it's been a pleasure having you here this morning.
