Peri‐operative decisions about cardiopulmonary resuscitation among adults as reported to the 7th National Audit Project of the Royal College of Anaesthetists

J. P. Nolan,
J. Soar,
A. D. Kane
et al.

Abstract: SummaryCurrent guidance recommends that, in most circumstances, cardiopulmonary resuscitation should be attempted when cardiac arrest occurs during anaesthesia, and when a patient has a pre‐existing ‘do not attempt cardiopulmonary resuscitation’ recommendation, this should be suspended. How this guidance is translated into everyday clinical practice in the UK is currently unknown. Here, as part of the 7th National Audit Project of the Royal College of Anaesthetists, we have: assessed the rates of pre‐operative… Show more

“…Calcium may exacerbate injury to an ischaemic myocardium and negatively impact cerebral recovery. As such, it should only be given for hyperkalaemia, calcium channel blocker overdose or hypocalcaemia [3,6]. Sodium bicarbonate was given in 5% of the cases reported to NAP7 and, similarly to calcium, its routine administration is not recommended [3,6].…”

Recent Resuscitation Council UK guidelines for anaesthetists during peri-operative anaphylaxis discuss the preferential use of small intravenous boluses of adrenaline (e.g.…”
