• Differences between BLS for Healthcare Providers (BLS HCP) and BLS PHP, and how to position these with the Training Network
• Defining and setting expectations of new concepts within BLS training— Debriefing— Chest compression fraction (CCF)— Team performance
• Takeaways— How are the BLS PHP course keys accessible?— BLS PHP Product Orientation and other resources on the Instructor Network (IN)

Overview

In 2012, the AHA assembled an EMS Advisory Panel consisting of field providers from around the country. That group made the following recommendations:• Design a specific BLS curriculum for prehospital providers that includes
EMS-specific scenarios and skills practice
• Make the scenarios entirely EMS oriented and realistic for the prehospital environment
• Include the high-performance team concept to increase the level of competence
• Curriculum that teaches how to set up the scene for high-quality CPR
Historical Feedback and the Evolution of PHP

• BLS PHP is a new customizable learning experience, combining online and classroom-based training into one high-performance program created specifically for prehospital professionals.
• The total experience is what is learned and verified in the online portion, mixed with the implementation strategies experienced in the classroom.

• Initiate the Chain of Survival• Perform prompt, high-quality CPR with
C-A-B sequence (adult/child/infant)• Initiate early use of AED
(adult/child/infant)• Provide appropriate breaths• Practice the minor BLS differences for
children and infants• Practice team CPR (adult/infant)

• Focus on pit crew approach to teach how to conduct a code with teams varying from 2 to 6 people• Introduce the concept of debriefing to BLS
Instructors• Scenario-based training that may represent a
student’s next call in the field• Develop core course segments that provide the
opportunity for medical directors to tailor the course to local response protocols

Pit Crew Approach―Instructor
• Capturing and optimizing the percentage of arrest time that high-quality chest compressions are performed has a predictable improvement in survival.• Improving CCF to achieve the 80% threshold increases
survival by 200% to 300%.• Instructors in this course can calculate CCF by any of the
following 3 methods:― 2-stopwatch technique― Using the Full Code Pro application― Using instrumented manikins that capture
performance data

BLS Debriefing
From the 2010 AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC:• “Debriefing as a technique to facilitate learning should be
included in all ALS courses (Class I, LOE B)”• “Debriefing of actual resuscitation events can be a useful
strategy to improve future performance (Class IIa, LOE C)”― Peer to peer― Nonthreatening― Assists individuals and teams to reflect on and
improve performance

AHA guidelines:• Resource• Provide guidance• Lend supportive information• Substantiate― they are based
upon available science• Many use AHA guidelines to
devise local treatment protocols• Protocols and guidelines aren’t
always parallel

Team DynamicsSuggested roles for a 6-member team: 1. Compressor: Does 5 cycles of chest compressions 2. Airway: Opens the airway; provides bag-mask ventilation (and uses airway adjuncts as appropriate) 3. Monitor/Defibrillator: Brings and operates an AED (ACLS and PALS providers bring a manual monitor/defibrillator); may alternate with Compressor every 5 cycles. If a monitor is present, it should be placed in a position where it can be seen by everyone 4. Team Leader: Assigns roles and makes treatment decisions; provides feedback (when needed) to the rest of the team 5. Observer/Recorder: Records the time of interventions (and frequency and duration of interruptions in compressions); communicates these to the Team Leader 6. IV/IO/Medications (ACLS provider role): Initiates IV/IO access; administers medications

• How could you improve the actions of the teams you observed (for the cardiac arrest in vehicle, child drowning, and cardiac arrest in bathroom scenarios)?
• Do your teams do anything different from what you observed in the scenarios that you think improves patient outcomes?
• Are there observational or clinical data you could share to help improve team performance?
• Would you like clarification on any actions or components of the video?
