Question one
In relation to management of the airway and breathing after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC):
Select one or more option(s) and then Confirm.
That’s partly right.
That’s partly right.
Oxygenation saturation is maintained ideally in the range 94 - 98% and in the patient requiring mechanical ventilation, the aim is to achieve normocapnia.
Not all patients require intubation; patients who have had a brief period of cardiac arrest and have responded immediately to appropriate treatment may achieve an immediate return of normal cerebral function. These patients do not require tracheal intubation and ventilation, but should be given oxygen by facemask to maintain a normal arterial oxygen saturation.
In the first 24h after ROSC, most of the patients will require sedation to enable controlled mechanical ventilation.
