1. PURPOSE:
41.1. To establish criteria for the initiation and termination of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
1.2, To identify resources available to assist patient visitors/staff experiencing cardiopulmonary arrest.
1.3. To set forth the function and composition of the Hospital CPR team, and define coverage areas within
the Hospital.
1.4. To ensure the efficiency and effective response to code blue call
2, DEFINITION:
2.1. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) - is an emergency medical procedure for a victim of cardiac
and pulmonary arrest.
2.2. Code Blue - is the name given to an alert call for immediate assistance to save life of @ person who is
found to be unresponsive with cardio pulmonary arrest.
2.3. Cardiac Arrest - is the sudden and complete loss of cardiac function. It may be due to ventricular
fibrilation, asystole or electromechanical dissociation,
2.4, Respiratory Arrest - is the sudden and complete cessation of breathing.
2.8. Adult Code Blue - applies to all adults over 14 years old anywhere in the hospital
2.8. Pediatric Code Blue - applies to all children less than 14 years of age anywhere in the hospital
inchiding Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
2.7. Neonatal Resuscitation Program - an educational program that focuses on basic resuscitation skills
for newly bom infants.
2.8, Basic Cardiac Life Support (BCLS) - This comprises: initial assessment, chest compression, airway
maintenance, expired air ventilation (rescue breathing). Basic life Support implies that no equipment
and no drugs are employed.
2.9. Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) - This comprises, in addition to Basic Life Support (BLS),
usage of drugs and equipments during CPR including endotracheal tube, monitoring and DC shock
2.10. Witnessed Arrest - is one that is seen or heard by another person or an arrest that is monitored,
2.11. Assisted Ventilation - the act of inflating a patient's lungs by rescue breathing with or without a bag-
mask device or any other mechanical device
2.12.Chest Compression (CC) - are performed by an individual during CPR in attempt to restore
spontaneous circulation.
2.13, Drugs - refer to the delivery of any medication (by intravenous cannula, intraosseous needle, or
tracheal tube) during the resuscitation event.
2.14, First Monitored Rhythm - is the first cardiac rhythm present when a monitor or defibrillator is attached
toa patient after a cardiac arrest.

2.18.Return of Spontaneous Circulation (ROSC) - includes breathing (more than an occasional gasp),
‘coughing, or movement; may include evidence of palpable pulse or a measurable blood pressure. For
the purposes of quality report - successful resuscitation or ROSC is defined as the restoration of a
‘spontaneous perfusing rhythm that results in more than an occasional gasp, fleeting palpated pulse, or
arterial waveform,
2.16. Shockable/Non-shockable Rhythm - refers to the first monitored rhythm, which when analyzed by the
Person interpreting the monitor/defibrillator, was found to be treatable by atternpted defibrillation
‘Shockable - Ventricular Fibrillation (VF) & pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VT); non-shockable either
asystole or PEA
2.17.EMD - Electro Mechanical Dissociation: A condition at which there is cardiac rhythm seen on the
monitor but no apical pulse could be felt and no heart sounds could be auscultated. It is also called as
PEA. Pulseless electrical activity
2.18.Sustained ROSC - deemed to have occurred when chest compressions are not required for 20
Consecutive minutes and signs of circulation persist

RESPONSIBILITY:
3.1. CPR Committee
3.2, Heads of Medical Staff Department
3.3, Medical Director
POLICY:
4.1, The Hospital CPR Committee oversees all aspects of CPR,
4.2. The Medical Director works closely with the Nursing Director and other department head for CPR Team
that will provide coverage for resuscitation at all imes (twenty-four hours round the clock).
4.3. CPR Is attempted on all persons experiencing cardiopulmonary arrest unless there is a valid
“Physician's order to limit cardiopulmonary resuscitation’ in the medical record or a ‘Do Not
ion" (DNR) decision has been made by the MRP in consultation with other staff and the
Resusci
patient/family and documented in the patient record,
4.4. All hospital staff should possess valid BCLS certificate to be able to take part in CPR.
4.5. Equipment should be available and operable at all imes to manage clinical emergencies requiring CPR.
4.6. The CPR Record should be kept in a designated location preferably on the top of the crash cart, so it
‘can be quickly found at the very beginning of resuscitation.
