CPR HD

Posted by EMTCOWGIRL, 11 August 2011 · 1,157 views

Has anyone heard of or been practicing the CPR HD protocol.  I learned it today it was a really amazing efficient way to work a STEMI.  The focus is to decrease prolonged interruptions of chest compressions.  It's an organized plan where everybody knows exactly what they are supposed to be doing and gives the PT the best chance of recovering neurologically intact.  The PT we used it on had missed a dialysis appt. and had a laundry list of other Rx's and we got him back.  We took him to a destination currently practicing hypothermic treatment of ROSC PT's and he's doing really well.  It was very smooth and worked great in the field.
