Medication Review
The information on medications in this study guide meets the same standard set by the 2005 American Heart Associat
Advanced Cardiac Life Support. It does not supersede local protocols or medical control; consult with your medical dir
the most up-to-date guidelines on medication administration.
A Note on ET Tube Administration of Medications:This route of medication administration is being
deemphasized by the AHA. The IV or IO routes are the preferred routes. However, the ET route can still
be used if unable to gain access by IV/IO. If using the ET route, the dosage must be increased, typically 2-
2.5 times the IV/IO bolus dosage. 10 ml of normal saline should follow the medication. Use the mnemonic
NEAL or LEAN to remember which meds can be administered by the ET route: Narcan Epi
Atropine Lidocaine.
A Note on Fluids: Use normal saline as the initial IV/IO fluid in an arrest situation. IV/IO medications
should be administered during CPR. It is also recommended to flush the medication with 20 ml of fluid afte
each administration as well as elevating the extremity. Always use large bore catheters if possible.
ADENOSINE
Class: Indicatedfor: IVBolusDosage:
Endogenous nucleoside PSVT or Narrow Complex 6 mg -1stdose
Tachycardia 12 mg 2nd
dose
12 mg 3rddose
Comments: Doses are followed by a saline flush. Two subsequent doses of 12 mg each may be administere
at 1 2 minute intervals. Use the port closest to cannulation. The AHA recommends that the dose be cut
half if administering through a central line, or in the presence of Dipyridamole or Carbamazepine. Larger
doses are required in the presence of caffeine or Theophylline.
AMIODARONE
Class: Indicated for: IV/IOBolusDosage:
Antiarrhythmic V-Fib / Pulseless V-Tach 300 mg 1st
dose
150mg 2nd
dose
Arrhythmias 150 mg over 10 minutes (rapid)
360 mg over 6 hours (slow)
Infusion dose:540 mg IV/IO over 18 hours (.5 mg/min)
Comments:Cumulative doses >2.2 g/24 hours are associated with significant hypotension. Do notadminister with other drugs that prolong QT interval (i.e., Procainamide). Terminal elimination is extremelylong half life lasts up to 40 days.
8/10/2019 ACLS Guia Estudio 2006
14/53
ASPIRIN
Class: Indicated for: IV/IO Bolus Dosage:Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory Chest pain / ACS N/APO Dose: 160mg 325mg
Suppository Dose: 300mg
Comments: In suspected ACS, Aspirin can block platelet aggregation, and arterial constriction. Also helpswith pain control. May cause or exacerbate GI bleeding. The goal is to give Aspirin to ACS patients within
minutes of arrival.
ATROPINE
Class: Indicated for: IV/IO Bolus Dosage:Parasympathetic Blocker Bradycardia .5mg every 3-5 minutes as needed
PEA, Asystole 1mg every 3-5 minutes
Comments:Only used in bradycardias for symptomatic patients. Only used in PEA if rate is slow. Themaximum dosage is 3mg. Doses of Atropine < .5mg may result in paradoxical slowing of the heart. Not
indicated in second degree type I or third degree heart block.
DIGOXIN
Class: Indicated for: IV Bolus Dosage:Cardiac Glycoside A-Fib / A-Flutter 10-15g/kg lean body weightAntiarrhythmic
Comments: Reduce Digoxin dose by 50% when initiating Amiodarone due to drug interaction. Toxicity maycause serious arrhythmias.
DILTIAZEM
Class: Indicated for: IV Dosage:Calcium Channel Blocker A-Fib / A-Flutter 15-20 mg over 2 minutes
Comments:Do not use in wide-QRS tachycardias of uncertain origin. May cause hypotension.
DOPAMINE
Class: Indicated for: IV Drip Dosage:Catecholamine Symptomatic Bradycardia 1-5g/kg/min - renal perfusion
Hypotension 5-15g/kg/min cardiac dose
10-20g/kg/min vasopressor dose
Comments: Titrate to patient response. Correct hypovolemia with volume replacement before initiatingDopamine. May cause tachyarrhythmias. Do not mix with Sodium Bicarbonate.

ELECTRICAL THERAPY
Defibrillation
Fibrillation is a disorganized rhythm that, if present in the ventricles, is life threartening. A
defibrillatory shock uses electrical current to terminate all electrical activity of the irregularly beating
heart. The hope is that following defibrillation, the heart will resume beating in a coordinated
fashion. Early delivery of electrical therapy, combined with immediate CPR following the arrest, is
critical to survival from sudden cardiac arrest.
Cardioversion
Synchronized cardioversion is a treatment option for V-Tach with a pulse, SVT, and unstable atrial
fibrillation or flutter. The shock is delivered in coordination with the QRS complex of the heart in
hopes of returning to a normal sinus rhythm. The standard sequence of energy levels for
synchronized cardioversion are as follows: 100J, 200J, 300J, & 360J monophasic energy dose (or
clinically equivalent biphasic energy dose). If the patient receiving the electrical therapy is conscious,
consider sedation prior to cardioversion.
Pacing
External cardiac pacing, or transcutaneous pacing, stimulates heart activity with an electrical impulsedelivered across the chest wall. It is a recommended therapy for symptomatic and hemodymanically
compromised bradycardias. If the patient receiving the therapy is conscious, consider sedation. The
general guideline for pacer settings is starting from zero, turn the milliamps up until capture is
achieved, then set the rate at 20 beats per minute above the monitored heart rate, with a minimum
rate of 50 bpm.
