Pinnacle Webinar Series: The High-Performance CPR Revolution: Learn the Science and Practical Implementation Tips of High-Performance CPR
Why is it that someone suffering sudden cardiac arrest in one community can have a 500% better chance of surviving and returning to their family and life than in another city? CPR has been in practice for more than five decades, but SCA resuscitation rates on average have remained very low. However, there are pockets of excellence where meaningful survival rates have crossed the 50% threshold. Many of the partnering communities in the HeartRescue Project—a national initiative funded by Medtronic Philanthropy tasked with improving SCA rates by 50% in five years in targeted geographic areas—have seen remarkable progress with the implementation of high-performance CPR in their communities. The nationally-vetted resuscitation guidelines now call for each and every CPR event to have the CPR quality monitored throughout the event. What does that mean? How should providers and agencies comply with these practice guidelines? Aren’t trained rescuers able to always able to meet the CPR metric benchmarks on their own? What does all this mean to me? You’ll learn the answers to all of these important life-saving questions, plus more key information on the following in this webcast:

How to Champion & Implement High-Quality CPR Into your EMS Agency and Emergency Department Webinar
In healthcare environments, poor-quality CPR should be considered a preventable harm. The use of a systematic continuous quality improvement (CQI) approach has been shown to optimize outcomes. Despite this evidence, few healthcare organizations apply these techniques to cardiac arrest by consistently monitoring CPR quality and outcomes. As a result, there remains an unacceptable disparity in the quality of resuscitation care delivered, as well as significant opportunities to save more lives. Through better measurement, training, and systems-improvement processes of CPR quality, we can have a significant impact on survival from cardiac arrest and eliminate the gap between current and optimal outcomes. We need more healthcare providers to step up and champion these efforts in every system. Learn how Dr. Bobrow and the team in Arizona are doing just that. And how you can implement in your own healthcare system. |
