Slide 1-

Defibrillator Dr. Sanjeev Chatni
Slide 2-

Definition An electrical device used to counteract fibrillation of the heart muscle and restore normal heartbeat by applying a brief electric shock
Slide 3-

Early defibrillation is critical to survival VF -frequent rhythm witnessed in SCA Rx for VF is electrical defibrillation Probability of successful defibrillation diminishes rapidly over time VF tends to deteriorate to asystole within a few minutes
Slide 4-

For every minute that passes between collapse and defibrillation, survival rates from witnessed VF SCA decrease 7% to 10% if no CPR is provided Ann Emerg Med. 1993;22:1652–1658
Slide 5-

3 actions that must occur within the 1st moment of SCA Activation of the emergency medical services (EMS) system Provision of CPR, and Operation of an AED When 2 or more rescuers are present, activation of EMS and initiation of CPR can occur simultaneously
Slide 6-

2 critical questions about CPR+ defibrillation ? CPR should be provided before defibrillation is attempted Number of shocks to be delivered in a sequence before the rescuer resumes CPR
Slide 7-

Shock First Vs CPR First Out-of-hospital witnessed arrest If AED is immediately available Use the AED as soon as possible.
Slide 8-

In hospital CPR first Shock First Vs CPR First contd..
Slide 9-

Out-of-hospital not witnessed SCA 5 cycles of CPR Check the ECG rhythm Defibrillation (Class IIb)
Slide 10-

One cycle of CPR consists of 30 compressions and 2 breaths When compressions are delivered at a rate of about 100 per minute, 5 cycles of CPR should take roughly 2 minutes
Slide 11-

This recommendation regarding CPR prior to attempted defibrillation is supported by 2 clinical studies JAMA. 2003;289:1389 –1395 JAMA. 1999;281:1182–1188
Slide 12-

1-shock Vs 3-shock sequence No published human studies Animal studies- 1 shock f/b CPR VF/ Pulseless VT- 1 shock f/b 5 # CPR Non shockable rhythm- CPR first 1st shock efficacy of Monophasic is lower than biphasic shock
Slide 13-

Defibrillation waveforms and energy levels The energy settings are designed to provide the lowest effective energy needed to terminate VF Shock success -Termination of VF for at least 5 sec following the shock VF frequently recurs after successful shocks, but this recurrence should not be equated with shock failure
Slide 14-

Modern defibrillators are classified as Monophasic Biphasic Energy levels vary by type of device No specific waveform is associated with a higher rate of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) or rates of survival to hospital discharge after cardiac arrest
Slide 15-

Monophasic waveform Defibrillators Deliver current of one polarity 2 types The monophasic damped sinusoidal waveform (MDS) returns to zero gradually Monophasic truncated exponential waveform (MTE) current is abruptly returned to baseline (truncated) to zero current flow
Slide 16-

Biphasic waveform Defibrillators The optimal energy for termination rate for VF has not been determined 200 J is safe and has equivalent or higher efficacy for termination of VF than monophasic waveform shocks of equivalent or higher energy (Class IIa)
Slide 17-

Automated external Defibrillators AEDs are sophisticated, reliable devices Use voice and visual prompts to guide lay rescuers and healthcare providers to safely defibrillate VF SCA
Slide 18-

Lay Rescuer AED programs 1995 AHA recommended lay rescuer AED programs to improve survival rates from out-of-hospital SCA Studies of lay rescuer AED programs in airports, & casinos have shown a survival rate of 41-74% from out-of-hospital witnessed VF SCA when immediate bystander CPR is provided and defibrillation occurs within about 3 to 5 minutes of collapse
Slide 19-

Electrode placement Right pad – Right Infraclavicular Left pad – Inf-lateral left chest, lateral to the left breast Position the pad at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) away from the implantable medical device
Slide 20-

Do not place pads directly on top of a transdermal medication patch If the victim’s chest is covered with water or the victim is extremely diaphoretic, wipe the chest before attaching pads AEDs can be used when the victim is lying on snow or ice If the victim has a hairy chest, remove some hair
Slide 21-

Manual Defibrillation Both low-energy and high-energy biphasic waveform shocks are effective Both escalating & non-escalating energy defibrillators are available Insufficient data to recommend one over another Use device specific dose
Slide 22-

Biphasic- 150-200 J Monophasic- 360 J Although operator selects the shock energy (in joules), it is the current flow (in amperes) that actually depolarizes the myocardium
Slide 23-

Transthoracic Impedance Human impedance is 70 to 80 Ω To reduce use conductive materials In O2 rich areas such as CCU’s arcing has been known to cause fires
Slide 24-

Electrode size Min of 50 cm2 8-12 cm diameter Small electrode mat cause myocardial necrosis
Slide 25-

Fire hazard In oxygen rich environment Self-adhesive minimize the risk of sparks Do not use medical gels or pastes with poor electrical conductivity, such as ultrasound gel
Slide 26-

Synchronized cardioversion Shock delivery that is timed (synchronized) with the QRS complex Avoids shock delivery during the relative refractory portion of the cardiac cycle, when a shock could produce VF Energy (shock dose) used for a synchronized shock is lower than that used for unsynchronized shocks (defibrillation)
Slide 27-

Synchronized cardioversion is recommended to treat Unstable SVT d/t reentry atrial fibrillation atrial flutter
Slide 28-

SVT Monophasic energy for A Fib = 100-200 J A Flutter = 50-100 J If initial shock fails then increase dose in step wise manner Optimal dose for biphasic waveforms not established Success of terminating A fib with initial dose = 85%
Slide 29-

Ventricular Tachycardia Pulseless VT is treated as VF
