このコンテンツについて

Like a daily audio flash card. This podcast is intended to aid any medical professional preparing for an Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) class. Each one-to-nine minute Flash Briefing-style episode covers one of the skills needed to recognize a stroke or cardiac emergency and work as a high-performing team to deliver quality care. Listening to a tip-of-the-day for 14-30 days prior to a class will help cement core concepts that have been shown to improve outcomes in patients suffering a heart attack, cardiac arrest, or stroke. In addition to the chain of survival core concepts and ACLS algorithms, specific information needed to pass the written exam and megacode following the 2020 guidelines is presented. Healthcare providers that are already ACLS certified may find listening a helpful reminder. Disclaimer: This podcast is a supplement to your course's approved text book and videos - not a replacement. The information presented is for educational purposes only and is not medical advice. Medical professionals should follow their local laws, agency protocols, and act only within their scope of practice.Copyright 2023 Paul Taylor 生物科学 科学 衛生・健康的な生活 身体的病い・疾患

  • Oropharyngeal Airway (OPA) Review
    2025/05/29

    The tongue is the most common airway obstruction in an unconscious patient.

    Insertion an oropharyngeal airway helps keep the patient’s tongue from falling to the back of the pharynx, causing an airway obstruction.

    The oropharyngeal airway is sometimes called an OPA or simply an oral airway.

    Indications for using an oral airway.

    Contraindication for an oral airway and an alternative airway that can be used for patients with an intact gag reflex.

    Measuring an OPA and possible complications from inserting one that's too small or too large.

    Two techniques to properly insert an OPA.

    The use of an oral airway during CPR.

    The use of an OPA as a bite block after a patient has an advanced airway placed.

    Good luck with your ACLS class!

  • Hypoxia: An H&T Reversible Cause of Cardiac Arrest
    2025/05/28

    Hypoxia is a state of low oxygen levels in the blood.

    Determining hypoxia using a pulse oximeter or arterial blood gasses (ABGs).

    A goal of ACLS is to recognize signs of hypoxia and provide timely treatment to prevent an arrest.

    Examples of some things that might lead us to think of hypoxia as a cause of cardiac arrest.

    Why we should not rely on pulse ox to give accurate readings during CPR.

    Delivering ventilations with near 100% oxygen concentration using a BVM attached to supplemental O2 and a reservoir.

    Using end tidal waveform capnography to assess the quality of CPR.

    Changes to ventilation rates, tidal volume, and O2 concentration affects a patient's oxygen, carbon dioxide, and pH.

    The danger of excessive ventilation of a patient in cardiac arrest.

    Good luck with your ACLS class!

  • Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT)
    2025/05/27

    ECG characteristics of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) vs. sinus tachycardia.

    Signs & symptoms that indicate a patient is unstable.

    Delivery of a synchronized shock for the treatment of unstable SVT using a biphasic vs monophasic defibrillator.

    Consideration for team safety while performing synchronized cardioversion.

    Actions to take immediately if an unstable patient we’ve cardioverted goes into a pulseless rhythm.

    Management of stable patients in SVT.
