About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation - CPR in Correctional Facilities".

This medical PowerPoint presentation talks about Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), a life-saving technique used in emergency situations when a persons heart and breathing have stopped. The application of CPR in correctional facilities is particularly important given the higher risk of cardiac and respiratory emergencies in incarcerated populations. However, performing CPR in a correctional facility presents unique challenges that must be addressed to ensure effective and timely response.

CPR Facts Heart disease is the number 1 killer in the U.S. 330,000 Americans die yearly 50% of these will die before they get to the hospital
Slide 4-

CPR Facts The most common cause of death from a heart attack in adults is ventricular fibrillation Ventricular fibrillation: A disturbance in the electrical rhythm of the heart Can be treated with defibrillation (applying an electrical shock to the chest) If a defibrillator is not readily available, brain death will occur in less than 10 minutes
Slide 5-

CPR Facts During cardiac arrest, the heart stops pumping blood. CPR is one way of buying time until normal heart function is restored or a defibrillator becomes available. CPR provides artificial breathing and circulation, keeping oxygenated blood flowing to the heart and brain. The earlier you give CPR, the greater the chance of success. CPR is a combination of rescue breathing and chest compressions.
Slide 6-

When to Give CPR Someone is not breathing and has no pulse If someone is not breathing, but has a pulse, perform rescue breathing
Slide 7-

When to Give CPR Check the ABCs: Airway Breathing Circulation
Slide 8-

A is for Airway Check their mouth or throat for blockage Sweep the inside of the mouth with your fingers, if necessary
Slide 9-

B is for Breathing Put your ear to the mouth and nose Listen to see if they are breathing Observe if the chest is rising Feel for breaths on your cheek
Slide 10-

C is for Circulation Feel for a pulse Put your fingers on the side of the neck or on the top of the underside of the wrist Do NOT use your thumb. Your own pulse may be felt, and this could lead to confusion
Slide 11-

Rescue Breathing Perform if a person has a pulse but is NOT breathing Make sure they are lying on their back
Slide 12-

Rescue Breathing Tilt the head back Lift the chin with one hand Press the forehead back with the other Close the airway through the nose by pinching it
Slide 13-

Rescue Breathing Give 1 breath every 5 seconds Take a normal breath Cover the victim’s mouth with yours to create an airtight seal Watch for the chest to rise as you give each breath
Slide 14-

CPR Procedure If a person’s airway is clear but they are NOT breathing and do NOT have a pulse CPR involves giving compressions which pump blood to the brain and heart.
Slide 15-

CPR Procedure To give compressions: Put the heel of one hand on the center of the chest between the nipples Put the other hand on top of the first hand Push hard and push fast Push at a rate of 100 times a minute After each compression, release pressure on the chest to let it come back to its normal position. Keep your elbows locked so you do not get tired quickly.
Slide 16-

CPR Procedure Give 2 breaths, 1 second each Give 30 compressions at a rate of 100 per minute and then give 2 breaths. Remember to release pressure after every compression Keep giving sets of 30 to 2 until: The automated external defibrillator (AED) arrives Victim starts to move or Trained help arrives
Slide 17-

Remember! Before you begin: Confirm that the area is secure Notify (or have someone notify) medical personnel about the situation CPR is best done with 2 people One person doing the breathing One person doing the compressions
