The ROC Structure: The 30,000 Foot Overview
Registry Protocol
Registry l Epidemiological Databank ( registry) of: –Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrests –Major trauma l Population based (includes all cases) l In-hospital outcomes l Regional specific information to the Service / Base Hospital –Web-based and password protected l Form the basis of a Canadian Registry of Out-of-Hospital Resuscitation l CIHI – linkage with other data sets (trauma, cardiac care, stroke, oncology)
Proposed Protocols Cardiac
CPR: Back to the Basics
Compelling Evidence Negative Impact NeutraII mpact Positive Impact
More Compelling Evidence l Cobb – observational (3 years-639 pts vs 2 years-478 pts) –90 seconds CPR prior to shock –survival to hosp discharge (30% vs 24%) l Wik – randomized (200 pts) –3 minutes of CPR –survival to hosp discharge (22% vs 15%) l Abella – prospective observational study – 2005 (67 pts) –Ventilations rates of 20/min (61%) (AHA guidelines are 10 to 12/min) l Wik – prospective observational study – 2005 (176 pts) –Rate of compression 64/min (AHA guidelines are 100/min) –Depth of compression 34 mm (AHA guidelines are 38 to 52 mm) –Hands off time 48% (38% when exclude ECG & shock analysis)

Monitoring the Quality of CPR
Trauma
Hypertonic Saline and Dextran
Advantages l 250 ml ~ 3 litres of Ringer’s lactate l ↓ early systemic inflammatory response l ↓ incidence of sepsis
Goal l ↑Survival l ↑ Cognitive Performance l ↓ Multi Organ Dysfunction (MOD)
Who? Hypovolemic Cohort Inclusion Criteria: l Blunt or Penetrating Trauma l Prehospital SBP –< 70 or –SBP & HR > 108/min l Age >15yrs or >50kg
Who? TBI Cohort Inclusion Criteria: l Blunt trauma l Prehospital GCS 90 mmHg l Age >15yrs or >50kg
What is Being Asked of the You? l Registry: Identify Registry patients l CPR: Pads on patient; 50 or 300 compressions / analyze l ITV: Attach valve to mask or ET tube l Hypertonic Saline: Piggy back 250 ml bag / bolus l Common to all Studies: Data Collection Sheet
