APPENDIX is inserted.  4 Types of Pulmonary condition: I. SYSTEMATIC APPROACH o Upper airway obstruction  Main goal in the assessing the critically ill or injured child: o Lower airway obstruction o Cardiopulmonary arrest prevention o Lung parenchymal disease  In pediatrics, the most common cause of arrest: o Disorder control of breathing o Secondary to Pulmonary  A continuous process of evaluation, assessment, and management BREATHING sequence  4 parameters needed in evaluating the breathing of the victim:  Continue process until patient is stable enough to be transported to o Rate of breathing o Effort of breathing the next level of care o Air entry or breath sounds  If patient deteriorates, life-saving measures or interventions should o Oxygen saturation be done. CIRCULATION  Consist of:  5 parameters in evaluating the victim’s circulation: o Initial Assessment o Heart rate o Primary Assessment o Blood pressure o Secondary Assessment o Central and Peripheral pulse o Tertiary Assessment o Capillary refill time o Urine output  Presence of Shock is distinguished by severity: o Compensated Shock o Hypotensive Shock  Classify what particular shock the patient is suffering from. Such as: o Hypovolemic Shock o Distributive Shock o Obstructive Shock o Cardiogenic Shock DISABILITY  Check for: o Level of consciousness (AVPU) o Neurologic status of the patient o Blood Sugar EXPOSURE  Check for: o Fever (temperature of 37.8C) INITIAL ASSESSMENT o Rashes  Visual and Auditory tool o Bruises on the patient’s body  First few seconds of encounter with the patient SECONDARY ASSESSMENT  Appearance or the level of consciousness  Focus on the resuscitation-oriented history and pertinent physical  Breathing pattern including the rate, effort, and abnormal sounds. examination of the patient utilizing the mnemonic:  Color of the victim: pink, pale, mottled, or cyanotic o S – Signs and Symptoms  Physiologic condition of the patient is reassessed as: o A – Allergy o Respiratory Distress o M – Medications o Respiratory Failure o P – Past Medical History o Life-threatening condition with signs of life o L – Last Meal o Life-threatening condition without signs of life o E – Events prior to critical condition  A more detailed tool for assessing and evaluating the patient  After the secondary assessment, final diagnosis/impression is consist of: made, and final specific intervention is given/rendered to the o Airway patient. o Breathing TERTIARY ASSESSMENT o Circulation  Includes: o Disability o Laboratory o Exposure o Radiologic AIRWAY o Other Diagnostics  3 Types: o Clear II. CPR  Components of CPR: 1  rhadzoo o Chest Compressions  A lightweight, portable, computerized device than can identify an o Airway abnormal heart rhythm as shockable or non-shockable. o Breathing  Can deliver a shock that can stop the abnormal rhythm and allow ASSESS FOR BREATHING AND PULSE the heart’s normal rhythm to return (defibrillation).  Pulse  Earl defibrillation increases the chance of survival from cardiac o Infant: Brachial Pulse arrest that is caused by abnormal heart rhythm. - Place 2 or 3 fingers on the inside of the upper arm,  How to use and AED? midway between the infant’s elbow and shoulder. 1.
