Emergency PCI is recommended for all patients with STEMI AND for hemodynamically or electrically unstable patients without ST elevation for whom a cardiovascular lesion is suspected.The routine use of lidocaine after ROSC is not recommended, however the initiation or continuation of lidocaine may be considered immediately after ROSC from ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia.A low end tidal CO2 in intubated patients after 20 minutes of CPR is associated with a very low likelihood of survival, and this factor should be used in combination with other factors to help determine when to terminate resuscitation.Use maximum inspired oxygen during CPR and then after ROSC, titrate oxygen to an oxygen saturation of 94% rather than continuing maximum oxygen delivery.Ultrasound has been added as an additional method for helping to confirm ROSC and for confirming ETT placement.Vasopressin has been removed from the algorithm altogether, and an emphasis on EARLY administration of epinephrine is stressed.ECMO or ECPR may be considered for selected patients with refractory cardiac arrest where a reversible cause of cardiac arrest is suspected.

Quick List – ACLS Guidelines 2015 for Cardiac Arrest Update In Part 1 of ACLS Guidelines 2015 – Cardiac Arrest Controversies we discuss the science and controversies around the following questions: What exactly determines ‘high quality CPR’ and how can we best achieve it? How do we best assess cardiac output during our resuscitation? How and when should we be giving epinephrine or vasopressin in the cardiac arrest patient? What’s the best way to manage refractory Ventricular Fibrillation? How soon do we need to intubate in cardiac arrest? and many more… Steve Lin some of the most practice-changing and controversial questions.

In light of knowing how to provide optimal cardio-cerebral resuscitation and improving patient outcomes, in this episode we’ll ask two Canadian co-authors of The Guidelines, Dr. With the release of the American Heart Association ACLS Guidelines 2015 online on Oct 16th, while there aren’t a lot a big changes, there are many small but important changes we need to be aware of, and there still remains a lot of controversy. As a result, survival rates after cardiac arrest have risen steadily over the last decade. A lot has changed over the years when it comes to managing the adult in cardiac arrest.
