Disclosures

CPR
- Difficult subject
- Especially when discussing termination of
CPR
- Also when children are involved
- This difficulty is reflected in published
guidelines
………………..……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Background
- Joint Position Statement of The National
Association of EMS Physicians (NAEMSP) and the American College of Surgeons Committee
- n Trauma
McSwain, Norman. Guidelines for the Termination of Resuscitation in Prehospital Traumatic Cardiopulmonary Arrest. JACS, March 2003, Vol196. Issue 3, p. 475-481
………………..……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Guidelines
- “Termination of resuscitation efforts should
be considered in trauma patients with EMS-witnessed cardiopulmonary arrest and 15 minutes of unsuccessful resuscitation and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).”
………………..……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Guidelines Continued
- “The recommendations contained within
this paper do not extend to the pediatric population”
- “..the vast majority of the patients were
adults.”
- “…additional studies may be warranted
before including children in any protocol that allows for withholding or terminating resuscitation…”
………………..……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Pediatric Guidelines
- “The inclusion of children in state termination-of-
resuscitation protocols should be considered, including children who are victims of blunt and penetrating trauma who have or in whom there is EMS-witnessed cardiopulmonary arrest and at least 30 minutes of unsuccessful resuscitative efforts, including CPR (Level 2).”

Objectives
#1. Examine Pediatric CPR outcomes by trauma type. #2. Identify opportunities for improved resource utilization, patient/family education, and trauma patient management for patients presenting in arrest.

Blunt Trauma 2003-2013
15,922 Total Patients 219 (1.4%) CPR 100 Blunt 92 Died (92.0%) 8 Survivors
………………..……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Blunt Trauma Survivors
- 3 patients had rapid recovery at the scene
- r in route
- 1 Bradycardia
- 2 Respiratory
- 2 Short courses of CPR in ED (1-2 rounds
- f Epinephrine)
………………..……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Conclusions
- Few pediatric trauma patients benefit from
CPR.
- In the absence of a rapidly reversible
cause, blunt trauma arrest patients have 100% mortality.
………………..……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Conclusions
- Given the poor outcomes of CPR in
pediatric trauma patients the use of termination-of-resuscitation protocols are recommended
