cardiopulmonary resuscitation is the most effective treatment for cardiac arrest.
Cardiac Arrest is when there is tremendous heart failure. (Heart Attack)
Maurice Gibb died of cardiac arrest= Heart disease.
The usual post-cardiac arrest target range for PETCO2 (end-tidal carbon dioxide) when ventilating a patient after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) is typically between 35 to 45 mmHg. Maintaining PETCO2 within this range is crucial for optimizing cerebral perfusion and ensuring adequate ventilation. Values outside this range may indicate inadequate ventilation or poor cardiac output, necessitating adjustments in ventilation strategy. Monitoring PETCO2 helps guide resuscitation efforts and assess the patient's hemodynamic status.

Infants in cardiac arrest are often in that state due to respiratory failure, which can lead to hypoxia and subsequent cardiac arrest. Common underlying causes include congenital heart defects, severe infections, or conditions like sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Additionally, metabolic disturbances or trauma can also contribute to cardiac arrest in this age group. Prompt recognition and intervention are critical for improving outcomes.
It means a patient has gone into cardiac arrest.
lack of oxygen
deliver ventilations over 1 second every 6 to 8 seconds
The scientific name for Cardiac Arrest is HI!
An implanted defibrillator has both risks and benefits to the patient. The implant is used for those who are at risk for cardiac arrest, and in the event of a cardiac arrest, the defibrillator implant could save the patients life by maintaining a steady cardiac rhythm.
Code 2 is an alert at the hospital that someone or a patient is dying of cardiac arrest. Available Advanced Cardiac Life Support teams are then sent to the area to assist/resuscitate the patient.

Yes, cats can suffer from cardiac arrest.
A cardiac arrest team will be called in, and the staff will start CPR immediately, they will use a BVM and Defib (if necessary) to attempt to resus the patient the cardiac arrest team will then move in and perform ALS on the patient. Usually the patient will go into respiratory arrest and then cardiac arrest, their heart rhythm will normally go from normal synas rhythm into VF (Ventiricualr Fibrillation) where a shock will be nececerry to stop the heart, and shock it back into normal rhythem. If the patient receives early CPR and early Defib they have a fairly good chance of surviving if they go into VF. Hope this helps.
Do not analyze if anyone is touching the patient.
Cardiac arrest can happen to anyone of any age.
