“…It is important to point out that this study was carried out under the guidelines from 2000 (4,9) , and according to the new guidelines, the correct location is on the lower half of the sternum (17) . The indicated frequency per minute for the performance of ETC is 100 times per minute (3,9,12,(16)(17)(18) . In this research, almost 65% of respondents were not able to provide an answer to that question, and 35.3% said they were knowledgeable of the frequency.…”

RESUMOA capacitação do leigo para o atendimento precoce em situações de emergência e instituição do suporte básico de vida (SBV) é fundamental para salvar vidas e prevenir seqüelas. O objetivo foi identificar o conhecimento dos leigos sobre SBV. Utililizouse entrevista estruturada em linguagem não-técnica. A amostra compreendeu 385 sujeitos, a maioria (57,1%) do sexo feminino com ensino médio completo e superior incompleto (53,7%). Verificou-se apenas 9,9% conhecem a manobra de respiração boca-a-boca; 84,2% conhecem a técni-ca de compressão torácica externa (CTE), e destes, 79,9% sabem sua finalidade. Apenas 14,5% sabem posicionar a vítima para realizar a CTE; 82,4% referem uma freqüên-cia menor que 60 CTE/minuto. Por não apresentarem adequada informação e fundamentação das etapas do SBV, os leigos podem prestar atendimento incorreto à ví-tima de emergência, acarretando prejuízos à reanimação.

“…The main aspects to be observed in the compressions are frequency, depth, return of the chest with each compression and minimum interruption (19,21). The frequency per minute indicated for performing compressions is 100 times per minute (22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28) and the compression-to-ventilation ratio is given by 30:2 in adults (19,21). In this research, 86.8% knew how to establish the appropriate frequency.…”

An observational, descriptive study was carried out with the aim of analyzing the knowledge of physical educators and employees of the various physical activity academies in Araras about the appropriate and timely management of Cardiorespiratory Arrest, according to the international recommendations of Basic Support of Life (SBV). Data were collected from an objective questionnaire containing 20 multiple-choice questions based on the American Heart Association to assess the level of knowledge in BLS. Despite the general average of correct answers having remained at 60.5%, the results showed that the participants have insufficient knowledge in BLS. The minimum number of hits remained at 7/20 and the maximum at 17/20. The results demonstrate important gaps in teaching that need to be evaluated and addressed. They also reinforced the need to include a permanent subject on BLS in higher education institutions for all courses in the health area and, mainly, with an adequate perspective for the needs within the field of action of each health professional, as well as courses of recycling and maintenance of knowledge for already trained professionals, since, even with training courses, the lack of continuous applicability of the knowledge learned can reduce over time the ability to use the clinical procedures necessary in specific cases of BLS.

ObjectiveThis study aims to present overall survival rates to hospital discharge for out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in Tasmania and to identify predictors of survival.MethodsA retrospective observational cohort study was undertaken from 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2014. A probabilistically linked data set was created from paramedic electronic medical records and hospital patient records. Logistic regression was used to assess factors associated with survival of OHCA.ResultsDuring the study, 2949 incidents of OHCA were reviewed and 1146 had emergency management provided, with an overall survival rate to hospital discharge of 135 (12%). A number of independent factors are associated with improved outcomes including if the initial presenting cardiac rhythm was either ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 8.75, 95% confidence interval [CI] 5.15–14.89) (P < 0.0001) relative to those who were found in a non‐shockable rhythm. Another factor was age group (overall P < 0.001). Those aged 85+ years had a reduced overall survival rate (2.9%), which was lower than those <16 years of age (OR 0.37, 95% CI 0.07–1.94; adjusted OR 0.38, CI 0.03–1.00) (P < 0.001). The odds of surviving OHCA decreased by 9% for every minute defibrillation of a shockable rhythm was delayed were witnessed by a bystander (OR 0.90, 95% CI 0.85–0.95).ConclusionTime to defibrillation for witnessed arrests, other than paramedic witnessed arrest was associated with better overall survival rates than unwitnessed OHCA. Further factors such as the event being of cardiac aetiology, bystander cardio‐pulmonary resuscitation performed, initial presenting cardiac rhythm of ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia and decreasing age were all associated with increased probability of survival.
