Cardio Pulmonary Resatuation (part 1)

     Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is an emergency procedure that combine chest compression often after artificial ventilation  in an effort to manually preserve intact brain function until further measures are taken to restore spontaneous blood circulation and breathing in a person who is in cardiac arrest .



      emergency procedure  of actions to be conducted in a certain order or manner, in response to a specific class of reasonably foreseeable emergency, a situation that poses an immediate risk to health life property, or the enviroment.

C. P .R Quality : 1 . push hard and fast (100 - 120 \ min)and allow chest recoil . 

2 . minimize interuption in compression  . 

3 Avoid exacessive ventilation .

4 Rotate compression every 2 min 

4 Quantative wave from capnography . 

consequence : Organ donation ; organ donation  is usally made possible using CPR to the patient . if there is a spontaneous circulation ,  all organ can be considered  for donation .

if the patient doesn't wake up cpr will continue untill operation complete , kidney and liver is still considered for donation . 

1000 organ donation is complete using this process per year .

Patient Shifting from O.T to Post Operative Care ( Part 2)

  Standard of Practice II It is the responsibility of the HCWs to safely transport a patient to the preoperative holding area or operating room. Confirm IV lines, indwelling catheters, monitoring system lines and drains, and any other lines are secure and patent, and IV bag and collection containers are hanging away from the patient’s head..  Ensure head, arms and legs are protected, adequately padded, and patient is comfortable as possible.  . The patient should be transported feet first; rapid movements, particularly when going around a corner should be avoided. Rapid movements, especially if the patient has received preoperative medications, can cause the patient to become disoriented, dizzy, and nauseated, and induce vomiting .. The staff person moving the transportation device should be positioned at the patient’s head in order to look forward for potential hazards. This also allows immediate access to the patient’s airway in case of respiratory distress or vomiting...

the abdominal arota branches

  The abdominal aorta in a nutshell The abdominal aorta is a continuation of the descending thoracic aorta . It supplies all of the abdominal organs , and its terminal branches go on to supply the  pelvis and lower limbs . It also supplies the undersurface of the diaphragm and parts of the abdominal wall . It begins at T12 and ends at L4 , where it divides into the right and left common iliac arteries . It enters the abdomen through the aortic opening of the diaphragm , which is located beneath the median arcuate ligament between the crura of the diaphragm   at T12 . It is accompanied through the aortic opening by the azygos vein and the thoracic duct . It is located on th e posterior abdominal wall in the retroperitoneal space of the abdomen. It descends on the left of the inferior vena cava  (IVC) over the anterior surface of the bodies of the lumbar vertebrae and follows the curvature...

Anatomy and Physiology of aterial line

  Anatomy and Physiology The arterial pulse may be palpated in the extremities and the neck. With the knowledge of the contour of these vessels, the operator may easily identify the location of the artery. The anatomy of every site of insertion must be analyzed to determine the landmarks, the depth, the relationship to adjacent anatomical structures, and the size of the artery.   The radial artery is superficial in the thenar area of the wrist where the radial bone joins the metacarpal bones. There, the radial pulse is best felt slightly medial to the extensor tendons of the thumb. The radial artery is a preferred site of insertion. The ulnar artery is opposite to the radial pulse in the volar aspect of the wrist at the joint of the ulnar bone to the metacarpal bones. The artery divides into 2 branches, both of which join a similar division of the radial artery to form a rich, collateral network known as the deep and superficial palma...
