CARDIAC AAREST PRESENTATION .PPT FOR NURSING STUDENT
- 1.
- 2. INTRODUCTION In cardiacarrest, the heart is unable to come and circulate blood to the body’s organizations. It is often caused by this arrhythmia, such as ventricular fibrillation, progressive credit cardiac or a systole that is absent of cardiac electrical activity and heart muscle contraction
- 3. Definition Definition :Sudden, unexpected loss of heart function, breathing and consciousness. In cardiac arrest, the heart abruptly stops beating. Without prompt intervention, it can result in the person's death .The main symptom is loss of consciousness and unresponsiveness.
- 4. INCIDENCE Incidence :Incidence rates ranged significantly from 35.7 to 128.3 per 100,000, with a mean of 62. Survival rates ranged significantly from 1.6% to 20.7%. Incidence rates in these communities were negatively related to survival rates; that is, as the incidence rate increased, the survival rate decreased. This study found the annual incidence of SCD to be 53 per 1 lakh residents constituting 5.6% of total mortality in India . Each year, approximately 0.1% of the United States population experiences a medical services-assessed, out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. European studies have a similar incidence ranging from 0.04% to 0.1% of the population. The median age in the US is between age 66 and 68.
- 5. TYPES OF CARDIACARREST Classifications. Clinicians classify cardiac arrest into "shockable" versus "non-shockable", as determined by the EKG rhythm. This refers to whether a particular class of cardiac dysrhythmia is treatable using defibrillation.
- 6. Clinical manifestation : Chest pain or discomfort. Feeling of a pounding heartbeat. Rapid or irregular heartbeats. Unexplained wheezing. Shortness of breath. Fainting or near fainting. Light headedness or dizziness. Whole body collapse, fainting, or light-headedness Also common: pulselessness, palpitations, or shortness of breath
- 9. RISK FACTORS Afamily history of coronary artery disease. Smoking. High blood pressure. High blood cholesterol. Obesity. Diabetes. An inactive lifestyle.
- 10. Other things thatmight increase the risk of sudden cardiac arrest include: A previous episode of sudden cardiac arrest or a family history of it. A previous heart attack. A personal or family history of other forms of heart disease such as heart rhythm problems, heart failure and heart problems present at birth. Growing older — the risk of sudden cardiac arrest increases with age. Being male. Using illegal drugs such as cocaine or amphetamines.
- 11. • Low potassiumor magnesium levels. • A sleep disorder called obstructive sleep apnea. • Chronic kidney disease.
- 12. Heart conditions thatcause for sudden cardiac arrest Coronary artery diseases Heart attack Cardiomegaily Heart valve disease Heart problem present at birth called congenital defect Long QT syndrome (LQTS) and other heart signaling problems.
- 13. Diagnostic tests Bloodtests. Certain heart proteins slowly leak into the blood after heart damage from a heart attack. Blood tests can be done to check for these proteins. Other blood tests are done to check levels of potassium, magnesium, hormones and other body chemicals that affect the heart's ability to work. Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG). This quick and painless test checks the electrical activity of the heart. Sensors, called electrodes, are attached to the chest and sometimes the arms and legs. An ECG can tell how fast or how slowly the heart is beating. The test can show changes in the heartbeat that increase the risk of sudden death. Echocardiogram. Sound waves create images of the heart in motion. This test can show how blood flows through the heart and heart valves. It can show heart valve problems and heart muscle damage.

- 15. • Ejection fraction.This test is done during an echocardiogram. It's a measurement of the percentage of blood leaving the heart each time it squeezes. A typical ejection fraction is 50% to 70%. An ejection fraction of less than 40% increases the risk of sudden cardiac arrest. • Chest X-ray. This test shows the size and shape of the heart and lungs. It might also show whether you have heart failure.
- 16. • Nuclear scan.This test is usually done with a stress test. It helps see blood flow problems to the heart. Tiny amounts of radioactive material, called a tracer, are given by IV. Special cameras can see the radioactive material as it flows through the heart and lungs. • Cardiac catheterization. This test helps health care providers see blockages in the heart arteries. A long, thin flexible tube called a catheter is inserted in a blood vessel, usually in the groin or wrist, and guided to the heart. Dye flows through the catheter to arteries in the heart. The dye helps the arteries show up more clearly on X-ray images and video.
- 20. MEDICAL SURGICAL MANEGEMENT CPR. Immediate CPR is needed to treat sudden cardiac arrest and prevent death. Resetting the heart rhythm. This is called defibrillation. You can do this by using an automated external defibrillator, called an AED, if one is available. They are found in many public places. Medicines to treat irregular heartbeats and to manage symptoms. Heart procedure or surgery to place heart devices or to treat a blockage. Life style changes and home ramedies
- 23. MEDICINES THAT GIVENTO PREVENT CARDIAC ARREST • Beta blockers • Acebutolol. • Atenolol (Tenormin). • Bisoprolol. • Metoprolol (Lopressor, Toprol XL). • Nadolol (Corgard). • Nebivolol (Bystolic). • Propranolol (Inderal LA, InnoPran XL)
- 24. .Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)inhibitors. tablet enazepril (Lotensin). Tablet Captopril. tablet Enalapril (Vasotec). 3.Calcium channel blockers. Amlodipine (Norvasc). Diltiazem (Cardizem, Tiazac, others). Felodipine.
- 25. SURGICAL MANEGEMENTS ARE Catheter ablation. In this procedure, the doctor places one or more catheters into blood vessels to the heart. ... Pacemaker. ... Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). ... Coronary bypass graft surgery.
