this is meant to be basic treatment until an ambulance arrives, the ARC has the view anything is better than nothing, and current practices are stating if people haven't been trained in CPR, then focusing on compressions is better than confusing people with breathing as well. these calls were simulated, but SA Ambulance Service would see many calls very similar to this on a daily basis

Most do, I think. LIONEL is "Location, Incident, Other Services, Number of casualties, Extent of Injuries and Location" and is what most emergency dispatchers use

@krisDM3000 They are told to give compression only CPR. No rescue breaths
@alixena93406 жыл бұрын
I do get frustrated when they insist on asking SO many questions before giving instructions on how to do resuscitation! It was seriously ONE WHOLE MINUTE 04:45 - 05:55 between the time he said that his father was not breathing and the time that instructions where started on how to give CPR !!! Even if you take the specific answer NO to the question "Is he breathing?" at 05:08, it still took nearly 50 seconds. He was asked his father's surname, which is surely not a necessary piece of information at that stage. And that waiting time will vary depending on the speed of the response given by the caller, and whether they know the answer to the various questions, and a number of other variables. Very frustrating, and I would say a waste of very valuable time.

Honestly, “is he breathing” “no” should stop all further questions and go straight to cpr. Ambos can ask the other questions when they get there if there’s a need.

@@twoblackwidowsYou sound like someone who wouldn't handle the job. The scripts are very specific and tell the operators when to ask each question, it is important it's followed as there is a reason for each question. Although I understand it can be frustrating to answer questions when you are in an emergency situation, this can help you get the right team at the right time....otherwise you can do more harm than good.

it’s good to ask of the patient is breathing first so they can categorise the call
@jonathandpg61153 ай бұрын
@@imtheoysterbunnyGenerally the more modern technique in most countries is actually to ask the address first. Although categorizing the call is important....if they stop answering after they said their symptom you are playing blind on where to send people....(there are tools but they are not always accurate). If they stop answering when they said their address well with sound and situational awareness, you can at least send a first responder to check.... That being said each country has to do assesments based on the resources they have and the population they have. These decisions are made with a lot of thought into them and aren't taken lightly. Emergency stats are very strict

@jonathandpg61153 ай бұрын
What is appalling is that you think you can do this job better. Although it's very important to start CPR as soon as possible....you have to also send the right people as quickly as possible to the right location. The right questions NEED to be asked. The system is made and analyzed by proffessionals to have the best outcomes.

Even though the blood has some oxygen at the time of the cardiac arrest it is only good for the first 4 minutes. after that it is not oxygenated so try to give the breaths, specially if the cardiac arrest was due to lack of oxygen (like drowning or choking) For more info on the Australian protocols visit the Australian Resuscitation Council website.

Question: When was this produced? The reason I ask is because after what happened with my Uncle in 1993, I heard there was an overhaul of the dispatch system. Don't know if that's true but the way in which SA Ambulance dispatch worked back then cost my Uncle his life. He suffered a massive asthma attack one morning in 1993, tried to use his ventilator which on that day did not work. He panicked, ran outside before collapsing on his front yard. My cousin called the emergency services and because she was panicking at the sight of her father, forgot to tell dispatch that he was an asthmatic. The first Ambulance sent did not have the equipment to treat an asthmatic in cardiac arrest. The best they could do upon arriving at my Uncle's house was aid his neighbour in CPR. By the time the second Ambulance with the correct equipment and a Doctor was dispatched, my Uncle's brain had been without oxygen for more than 35 minutes. He was DOA by the time the paramedics got him to the R.A.H. The CPR his neighbour and the first response paramedics performed on him did manage to restart his heart & they were able to salvage that for donation. Proof that when it really comes down to the wire - mere minutes, even seconds can mean the difference between life and death.

In UK the first question to ask is - Ambulances services is the Patient breathing? And then confirm the address. !! Asses the situation and advise CPR. This is absolutely rubbish, wasted lot of time. You better watch your own video and learn out if it. Telling one thing and the example video is completely the opposite.
@HughRussell063 жыл бұрын
They ask for their address first so that they can immediately dispatch the ambulance and then they send details to them while they’re en route to the patient
@jonathandpg61153 ай бұрын
And it`s not neccessarly better, without the address no one is being sent. Doing CPR but having no medics on their way is quite useless. Especially if you are giving CPR for your first time. Some of the questions are also important to know BEFORE giving CPR....if you know CPR you'll have already done the scene and primary survey but most people don't know how to do so. So the dispatcher is actually walking them through the process. It`s super important.

@jonathandpg61153 ай бұрын
Maybe calm down and learn how the system works. Dispatch is done between 45-60 seconds. That is the target that NEEDS to be reached. So as you are speaking they are preparing to dispatch. If you answer your address and what symptoms they are experiencing....(for the first triage) they can determine AND send people right away. Afterwards there still isn't enough info for the paramedics, so they keep asking questions and updating the system live...this way when the paramedics come...they can waste little to no time since THAT would be the biggest waste of time. YOU are trying to kill people and that's not okay
