| *Shock as quickly as possible and resume CPR immediately
| |
| **First shock 2 J/kg
| |
| **Second shock 4 J/kg
| |
| **Subsequent shocks ≥ 4 J/kg (max 10 J/kg)
| |

| |

| |
| **1st line: Amiodarone
| |
| ***5 mg/kg (max 300mg)
| |
| ***May repeat twice up to 15mg/kg
| |
| **2nd line: Lidocaine

| ***1 mg/kg
| |
| **Magnesium
| |
| ***25-50mg/kg (max 2g) IV
| |
| ***Only for polymorphic V-tach
| |
| | |
| ==Bradycardia== | |
| *Assumes pulse and poor perfusion (low BP, AMS, shock)
| |
| **Start CPR if HR <60/min w/ poor perfusion
| |
| ***Recheck after 2min; if poor perfusion persists:
| |
| ****Give Epi 0.01 mg/kg (0.1 mL/kg 1:10,000)
| |
| ****Give Atropine 0.02mg/kg
| |
| *****Only if due to incr vagal tone or AV block (not hypoxia)
| |
| ****Transcutaneous pacing
| |
| *****Consider if bradycardia is due to complete heart block | |
| | |
| ==Tachycardia==
| |
| | |
| If pulses are palpable and the patient has adequate
| |
| perfusion:
| |
| | |
| Narrow-Complex (<0.09 Second) Tachycardia
| |
| Supraventricular Tachycardia
| |
| | |
| Attempt vagal stimulation (Box 7) first, unless the patient
| |
| is hemodynamically unstable or the procedure will unduly
| |
| delay chemical or electric cardioversion (Class IIa, LOE C).
| |
| In infants and young children, apply ice to the face without
| |
| occluding the airway
| |
| | |
| In older children, carotid sinus massage or Valsalva maneuvers
| |
| are safe.
| |
| | |
| Pharmacologic cardioversion with adenosine (Box 8) is
| |
| very effective with minimal and transient side effects.300–304 If
| |
| IV/IO access is readily available, adenosine is the drug of
| |
| choice (Class I, LOE C). Side effects are usually transient.
| |
| 300–304 Administer IV/IO adenosine 0.1 mg/kg using 2
| |
| syringes connected to a T-connector or stopcock; give
| |
| adenosine rapidly with 1 syringe and immediately flush
| |
| with �5 mL of normal saline with the other
| |
| | |
| If the patient is hemodynamically unstable or if adenosine
| |
| is ineffective, perform electric synchronized cardioversion
| |
| (Box 8). Use sedation, if possible. Start with a dose of 0.5
| |
| to 1 J/kg. If unsuccessful, increase the dose to 2 J/kg (Class
| |
| IIb, LOE C). If a second shock is unsuccessful or the
| |
| tachycardia recurs quickly, consider amiodarone or procainamide
| |
| before a third shock
| |
| | |
| Consider amiodarone 5 mg/kg IO/IV308,309 or procainamide
| |
| 15 mg/kg IO/IV236 for a patient with SVT unresponsive to
| |
| vagal maneuvers and adenosine and/or electric cardioversion;
| |
| for hemodynamically stable patients, expert consultation
| |
| is strongly recommended prior to administration
| |
| (Class IIb, LOE C). Both amiodarone and procainamide
| |
| must be infused slowly (amiodarone over 20 to 60 minutes
| |
| and procainamide over 30 to 60 minutes), depending on the
| |
| urgency, while the ECG and blood pressure are monitored.
| |
| If there is no effect and there are no signs of toxicity, give
| |
| additional doses (Table 1). Avoid the simultaneous use of
| |
| amiodarone and procainamide without expert consultation.
| |
| | |
| Wide-Complex (>0.09 Second) Tachycardia
| |
| | |
| Adenosine may be useful in differentiating SVT from VT
| |
| and converting wide-complex tachycardia of supraventricular
| |
| origin (Box 12). Adenosine should be considered only
| |
| if the rhythm is regular and the QRS is monomorphic
| |
| Consider electric cardioversion after sedation using a
| |
| starting energy dose of 0.5 to 1 J/kg. If that fails, increase
| |
| the dose to 2 J/kg
| |
| | |
| Consider pharmacologic conversion with either intravenous
| |
| amiodarone (5 mg/kg over 20 to 60 minutes) or
| |
| procainamide (15 mg/kg given over 30 to 60 minutes)
| |
| while monitoring ECG and blood pressure. Stop or slow
| |
| the infusion if there is a decline in blood pressure or the
| |
| QRS widens
| |
| | |
| Treat signs of shock with a bolus of 20 mL/kg of isotonic
| |
| crystalloid even if blood pressure is normal
| |
| | |
| Do not routinely hyperventilate even in case of head injury
| |
| | |
| | |
| Whenever possible, provide family
| |
| members with the option of being present during resuscitation of
| |
| an infant or child
