Cardiac Arrest Cooling Protocol: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

The WRHA has a protocol for providing therapeutic hypothermia following a ~~cardiac~~ arrest (not cool for other reasons).

The WRHA has a protocol for providing therapeutic hypothermia following a [[Cardiac arrest]] (not cool for other reasons).

This is relevant to how we collect '''[[~~BRR~~]]''' and [[Temperature]]. Even if all criteria below are not met, the fact that cooling has been applied will still impact these should be collected.

This is relevant to how we collect '''[[Targeted Temperature Management (TTM)]]''' and [[Temperature]]. Even if all criteria below are not met, the fact that cooling has been applied will still impact these should be collected.

*NOTE: We want to capture all patients who are cooled post '''~~cardiac~~ arrest''' whether they meet criteria for Cardiac Arrest Cooling Protocol or not. A significant portion of patients following ~~cardiac~~ arrest do not meet all the criteria listed however, based on the available evidence it is reasonable to consider cooling them.

*Cooling is indicated if '''all''' of the following are checked:

**Cardiac Arrest

**Initial rhythm ~~ventricular~~ fibrillation/tachycardia(Dx code: 131-4, or 131-1)

**Initial rhythm [[Ventricular fibrillation]]/[[Ventricular tachycardia]],[[Supraventricular tachycardia, paroxysmal]]

***OLD Dx code: 131-4, or 131-1 (Pre Jan 1.19)

**Time to ACLS <15 minutes

**Total ACLS time <60 minutes
