A IMPORTÂNCIA DA REANIMAÇÃO CARDIOPULMONAR (RCP) NO ATENDIMENTO PRÉ HOSPITALAR (APH)

Abstract

This study addresses the importance of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in prehospital care (PHC). Such an approach is justified due to the fact that the sooner the chest compressions are started, the more chance of survival will have that victim, the delay in starting the compressions decreases the chances of the victim. The purpose of this study is to know the importance of CPR in APH, being that it is a recurrent emergency in APH. This attempt will be obtained from the bibliographic review. The methodology used will be the hypothetical method - deductible through the literature review for critical reflection of the results obtained. The analysis showed that CRP should be promptly recognized by the rescuer for the rapid assessment of the victim and the CPR protocol should be initiated according to the number of first responders or even if it is a lay rescuer as soon as possible so as not to cause irreversible damage to the victim by the lack of oxygen in the brain.
