The document summarizes changes to resuscitation guidelines from 2010. Key changes included emphasizing high-quality chest compressions by pushing hard and fast at 100 compressions per minute to a depth of at least 2 inches. Hands should be placed in the center of the chest. The breathing assessment was simplified to begin CPR immediately if no breathing is detected. CPR should be performed as a team with tasks done simultaneously when possible.

Laura Pietrzak has performed more CoolScultping aesthetic treatments than anyone else in the world. This presentation to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons describes her CoolSculpting patient success stories which led to her development of the new Treatment to Transformation protocol for CoolSculpting globally.
Confronted with a rising incidence of increasingly overweight and frankly obese individuals, many interventions have continued to be sought for by the scientific community to address this.
Basic Life Support is a life saving procedure ensuring patient survival in various life-threatening conditions. It includes Chain of survival, Cardio-pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR).
This is a 2.5 hour update/preview of the 2010 ECC guidelines for CPR and ACLS. It does not include "special situations" and does not include the PALS/NRP stuff (both of these presentations are coming later). It is in its final draft but has been ran through a paramedic refresher course with good reception.
DISCLAIMER: It does not contstitute a formal ACLS refresher course, nor is it intended too.
Also it incudes much content from my importance of CPR lecture, also on here.
Despite there being no universally agreed definition for functional training, the use of the term remains very popular in the health and fitness industry. Functional training has been described as any form of exercise or device that increases complexity or increases the stability demand, whilst loading the muscular and connective tissues through more than one plane of motion. Therefore, the purpose of this presentation is to review a number of studies which have utilised commonly used functional training devices, such as: kettlebells, ropes, sand bags and suspension cables.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

You can do it!
2010 AHA Guidelines:
The ABCs of CPR
Rearranged to "CAB"
Friday, May 25, 2012
5. CAB – for life
• CPR is a technique used to save
anyone from breathing and
circulatory failure.
• CPR consists of Basic Life Support
(BLS) and Advanced Cardiac Life
Support (ACLS).
Friday, May 25, 2012
7. Emphasis on
High-Quality CPR
2010 Guidelines
“To provide effective chest compressions, push
hard and push fast. … compress the adult chest
at a rate of at least 100 compressions per
minute with a compression depth of at least 2
inches/5 cm. … allow complete recoil of the
chest after each compression, to allow the heart
to fill completely before the next compression.
… minimize the frequency and duration of
interruptions in compressions to maximize the
number of compressions delivered per minute.
(Berg, et al. Circulation. 2010;122;S685-S705)
Friday, May 25, 2012
8. Highlights
• This is a re-emphasis from 2005.
• For effective compressions:
– Push fast
– Push hard
– Allow chest to fully recoil
– Minimize any interruptions
• Applies to both lay and healthcare providers.
Friday, May 25, 2012
9. Rationale For Change
• High-quality chest compressions within CPR
continues to be a critical focal point.
• Well-performed compressions increase the
likelihood of survival.
Friday, May 25, 2012
10. Compression Hand
Position
2010 Guidelines
“The rescuer should place the heel of one hand
on the center (middle) of the victim‟s chest
(which is the lower half of the sternum) and the
heel of the other hand on top of the first so that
the hands are overlapped and parallel.”
(Berg, et al. Circulation. 2010;122;S685-S705)
Friday, May 25, 2012
11. Highlights
• Hands in center of the
chest.
• Lower half of
breastbone
• Second hand on top of
the first.
• Not on lowest part of
breastbone.
• Applies to both lay and
healthcare providers.
Friday, May 25, 2012
12. Rationale For
Change
• Use of the nipple line as a landmark for
hand placement was found to be unreliable.
Friday, May 25, 2012
13. Compression Rate
2010 Guidelines
“It is reasonable for laypersons and healthcare
providers to compress the adult chest at a
rate of at least 100 compressions per minute
with a compression depth of at least 2 inches
(5 cm.)”
(Berg, et al. Circulation. 2010;122;S685-S705)
Friday, May 25, 2012
14. Highlights
• “At least” 100 times per minute.
• It is okay to be a little faster.
• Applies to both lay and healthcare providers.
Friday, May 25, 2012
15. Rationale For
Change
• It has been found that higher survival rates are
associated with an increase in the number of
compressions provided per minute.
Friday, May 25, 2012
16. Compression Depth
2010 Guidelines
“It is reasonable for laypersons and healthcare
providers to compress the adult chest at a rate of
at least 100 compressions per minute with a
compression depth of at least 2 inches/5 cm.”
(Berg, et al. Circulation. 2010;122;S685-S705)
Friday, May 25, 2012
17. Highlights
• “At least” 2 inches on an adult.
• It is okay to compress a little deeper.
• Not enough information to define upper
limit.
• Applies to both lay and healthcare
providers.
Friday, May 25, 2012
18. Rationale For
Change
• Research indicates the tendency for CPR
providers to not compress deep enough, even
with the emphasis to "push hard."
Friday, May 25, 2012
19. Breathing
Assessment
2010 Guidelines
“After activation of the emergency response system, all rescuers should
immediately begin CPR for adult victims who are unresponsive with no
breathing or no normal breathing (only gasping).”
(Berg, et al. Circulation. 2010;122;S685-S705)
Friday, May 25, 2012
20. Highlights
• No more look, listen, and feel.
• Quick “look” for no breathing or no normal
breathing.
• Agonal breaths remain a concern.
• Applies to both lay and healthcare providers.
Friday, May 25, 2012
21. End-tidal CO2
• The use of end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) monitoring is
a valuable adjunct for healthcare professionals.
• When patients have no spontaneous circulation,
the ETCO2 is generally ≤ 10 mm Hg.
• When spontaneous circulation returns, ETCO2
levels are expected to abruptly increase to at
least 35-40 mm Hg.
• By monitoring these levels, interruptions in
compressions for pulse checks become
unnecessary.
Friday, May 25, 2012
22. Rationale for Change
• Simplifying the breathing assessment is
intended to help laypersons respond more
quickly with chest compressions and CPR.
• There is a high likelihood of agonal, or irregular,
gasping breaths to occur early in cardiac arrest
and confuse rescuers.
Friday, May 25, 2012
23. CPR Sequence -
Lay
2010 Guidelines
For an unresponsive person, activate EMS,
then assess breathing. If the person is not
breathing or not breathing normally, begin CPR
with 30 compressions followed by opening the
airway and giving 2 rescue breaths. Repeat
cycles of 30:2 (CAB method).
(Summary from Berg, et al. Circulation.
2010;122;S685-S705)
Friday, May 25, 2012
24. Highlights
• Initial assessment steps:
– Assess responsiveness
– Activate EMS
– Assess breathing
– Perform CPR
• CAB – begin CPR cycles
with compressions,
followed by airway and
breathing.
• Guideline applies to adults,
children, and infants.
Friday, May 25, 2012
25. Rationale For
Change
• The science indicates the importance of not
delaying chest compressions to perform rescue
breaths.
• Early chest compression can immediately
circulate oxygen that is still in the bloodstream.
Friday, May 25, 2012
29. Chain of Survival
2010 Guidelines
“These actions are termed the links in the
„Chain of Survival.‟ For adults they include:
Immediate recognition of cardiac arrest and
activation of the emergency response system
Early CPR that emphasizes chest
compressions
Rapid defibrillation if indicated
Effective advanced life support
Integrated post– cardiac arrest care.”
(Travers, et al. Circulation. 2010;122;S676-
S684)
Friday, May 25, 2012
30. Highlights
• Addition of fifth link in chain.
– Integrated post-cardiac arrest care.
• Applies to both lay and healthcare providers.
Friday, May 25, 2012
31. Rationale For
Change
• Links in the “Chain of Survival” indicate the
individual actions that must be strong in
order for a person to survive a sudden
cardiac arrest.
• The addition of the fifth link, integrated post-
cardiac arrest care, further emphasizes the
additional dependence on longer-term care
for long-term survival.
Friday, May 25, 2012
32. Cricoid Pressure
2010 Guidelines
“The routine use of cricoid pressure in adult
cardiac arrest is not recommended.”
(Berg, et al. Circulation. 2010;122;S685-S705)
Friday, May 25, 2012
33. Highlights
• Cricoid may impede ventilation.
• Difficult to teach.
• May prevent advanced airway placement.
• Aspiration may still occur.
Friday, May 25, 2012
34. Rationale For
Change
• Regardless of expertise, rescuers cannot
effectively apply cricoid pressure.
Friday, May 25, 2012
35. Team Approach
2010 Guidelines
“The intent of the algorithm is to present the steps of BLS in a logical and
concise manner that is easy for all types of rescuers to learn, remember and
perform. These actions have traditionally been presented as a sequence of
distinct steps to help a single rescuer prioritize actions. However, many
workplaces and most EMS and in-hospital resuscitations involve teams of
providers who should perform several actions simultaneously (e.g.: one
rescuer activates the emergency response system while another begins chest
compressions, and a third either provides ventilations or retrieves the bag-
mask for rescue breathing, and a fourth retrieves and sets up a defibrillator).”
(Berg, et al. Circulation. 2010;122;S685-S705)
Friday, May 25, 2012
36. Highlights
• Tasks can be performed simultaneously.
• Integrate additional rescuers as they arrive.
• Designate team leader with multiple
rescuers.
Friday, May 25, 2012
37. Rationale For
Change
• Some resuscitations start with a lone rescuer
and builds to more, whereas other resuscitations
begin with several willing rescuers.
• Training should focus on building a team and
performing tasks simultaneously.
Friday, May 25, 2012
38. Major change in
drugs!!
• Atropine is no
longer
recommended for
routine use in
managing and
treating pulseless
electrical activity or
asystole.
Friday, May 25, 2012 .
40. Reasons for this
change
• Most survivors of adult cardiac arrest have
an initial rhythm of ventricular fibrillation
(VF) or pulseless ventricular tachycardia
(VT)
• Best treated initially with chest
compressions and early defibrillation
rather than airway management.
Friday, May 25, 2012
41. Reasons for this
•
changedelay of
Airway management often results in a
initiation of good chest compressions.
• Airway management no longer recommended
until after the first cycle of chest compressions --
30 compressions in 18 seconds.
• The 30 compressions are now recommended to
precede the 2 ventilations, which previous
guidelines had recommended at the start of
resuscitation.
Friday, May 25, 2012
42. • Only a minority of cardiac arrest victims
receive bystander CPR.
• Significant obstacle to bystanders
performing CPR is their fear of doing
mouth-to-mouth breathing. By changing
the initial focus of resuscitation to chest
compressions rather than airway
maneuvers, more patients will receive
important bystander intervention, even if it
is limited to chest compressions.
Friday, May 25, 2012
43. Change…..
• Hands-only CPR (compressions only -- no
ventilations) is recommended for the
untrained lay rescuers to obviate their
fears of mouth-to-mouth ventilations and
to prevent delays/interruptions in
compressions.
Friday, May 25, 2012
44. Change…..
• Pulse checks by lay rescuers should not be
attempted because of the frequency of false-
positive findings.
• Recommended that lay rescuers should just
assume that an adult who suddenly collapses, is
unresponsive and not breathing normally (e.g.
gasping) has had a cardiac arrest, activate the
emergency response system, and begin
compressions.
Friday, May 25, 2012
45. Change…..
• If pulse checks are performed, healthcare
providers should take no longer than 10
seconds to determine if pulses are
present.
• If no pulse is found within 10 seconds,
compressions should resume immediately.
Friday, May 25, 2012
46. Electrical therapies
• Patients with VF or pulseless VT should
receive chest compressions until a
defibrillator is ready. Defibrillation should
then be performed immediately.
• Transcutaneous pacing of patients who
are in asystole has not been found to be
effective and is no longer recommended.
Friday, May 25, 2012
47. ACLS Changes…..
The recommendations for airway
management have undergone 2 major
changes:
(1) the use of quantitative waveform
capnography for confirmation and
monitoring of endotracheal tube placement
is now a class I recommendation in adults;
(2) the routine use of cricoid pressure during
airway management is no longer
recommended. Friday, May 25, 2012
48. Changes in
recommendations for
dysrhythmia management
• For symptomatic or unstable bradydysrhythmias,
intravenous infusion of chronotropic agents (e.g.
dopamine, epinephrine) is now recommended
when atropine fails;
Friday, May 25, 2012
49. Post-cardiac
arrest care.
• Induced hypothermia is generally
recommended for adult survivors of
cardiac arrest who remain unconscious,
regardless of presenting rhythm.
• Hypothermia should be initiated as soon
as possible after return of spontaneous
circulation with a target temperature of
32°C-34°C.
Friday, May 25, 2012
50. ACLS Changes…..
• Urgent cardiac catheterization and
percutaneous coronary intervention are
recommended for cardiac arrest survivors
who demonstrate ECG evidence of ST-
segment elevation acute myocardial
infarction regardless of neurologic status.
Friday, May 25, 2012
51. Post-arrest care
changes….
• Hemodynamic optimization to maintain
vital organ perfusion, avoidance of
hyperventilation, and maintenance of
euglycemia are also critical elements in
post-arrest care.
