MDC 407 - Adult Basic Life Support and Poisoning Management

Course Description

 This course aims to make participants be able to recognize cardiac arrest, give high-quality chest compressions, deliver appropriate ventilations and provide early use of an AED.Bystander-initiated cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is critical to ensuring successful resuscitation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The bystander CPR rate is still relatively low and is a major obstacle to improving the survival rate for cases of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. According to statistics, a lack of CPR knowledge, anxiety regarding an adverse CPR outcome and reluctance to perform mouth-to-mouth breathing are major factors of the low bystander CPR rate. Therefore, this course has been made to provide basic life support (BLS) education.

Furthermore this course will discuss Poisoning. It is one of common reason for admission to hospital. In most cases, known toxins are responsible. Toxidromes can guide further management to define dosage of reversal and management for patient practice. There is also risk for contamination and precautions should be prepared timely. Also, it essential to correctly evaluate and treat patient for saving lives. It is also related to high cost. Therefore we would like to emphasize treatment of poisoning in detail.
