Parada Cardiorespiratória e Ressuscitação Cardiopulmonar: vivências da equipe de enfermagem de um Hospital Escola

The Knowledge and Acting of a Nursing Team from a Sector of Cardiorespiratory Arrest Urgent Care / Conhecimento e Atuação da Equipe de Enfermagem de um Setor de Urgência no Evento Parada Cardiorrespiratória

“…The data found in this research contrasts a study that refers to the fact that training time related to the time of service in emergency is a major factor in care, since it can help in the early identification of signs of worsening of patients and in the prevention of stressful events, as CRA/ CPR, among the nursing team. 4 Most of the professionals had previous training on the subject, and the index of correct answers was higher in this group when compared with those who had not performed any type of training. However, it is worth mentioning that the number of partially correct answers prevailed in all questions both among those who had participated in some training on the subject and those who had not participated.…”

“…1,2,3 It is the most emergency situation attended in the prehospital and hospital environment, where approximately 95% of the patients with CRA die before they even reach hospital. 4 Soon after a CRA, the performed maneuvers are called CPR and are intended to keep oxygenated blood flowing to the brain and other vital organs until the return of spontaneous circulation and the reestablishment of homeostasis. These well-executed and performed resuscitation maneuvers can double and even triple the patient's chance of survival since they are the best chance for recovery of cardiopulmonary and cerebral function.…”

“…Um desfecho qualitativo da RCP depende de uma sequência lógica de procedimentos que pode ser sintetizada no conceito de corrente de sobrevivência; mnemônico composto por elos que refletem ações fundamentais a serem desenvolvidas, cujos impactos na sobrevida são significativos (4) . A corrente de sobrevida enfatiza a necessidade de resposta rápida por meio da vigilância e prevenção, reconhecimento precoce da PCR e acionamento dos serviços de emergência, RCP de alta qualidade e imediata, desfibrilação precoce, suporte avançado de vida imediato e cuidados pós-PCR (5)(6) .…”

Cardiopulmonary Re-Immonation (CPR): How Long Should A Person Insist On Performing The Maneuvers?

“…During CPR care, time is an important variable, and it is estimated that for every minute that the patient is left without CPR, about 10% of their chance of survival is decreased, which is why most of the victims die outside the hospital without intervention of the health team. The actions that increase the chances of survival of the victims at risk of sudden death are called "Survival Current", composed by Basic Support (SBV) and Advanced Life Support (SAV) [4]. The purpose of the CPR maneuvers is to offer the possibility of recovering the lives of certain people in a situation called Cardiorespiratory Arrest, but the time to stop the resuscitation is as important as starting, because there are times when the resuscitation maneuvers merely prolong the suffering and the death process or can only lead the patient to a tragic end: the vegetative state.…”
