Recommended practice for out-of-hospital emergency anaesthesia in adults: Statement from the Out-of-Hospital Emergency Anaesthesia Working Group of the Emergency Medicine Research Group of the German Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care

11/16/2016

 
European Journal of Anaesthesiology:
December 2016 - Volume 33 - Issue 12 - p 881–897
doi: 10.1097/EJA.0000000000000533

Emergency anaesthesia is an important therapeutic measure in out-of-hospital emergency medicine. The associated risks are considerably higher than those of in-hospital anaesthesia. The primary objectives of emergency anaesthesia are hypnosis, analgesia, oxygenation and ventilation through airway management. The secondary objectives of emergency anaesthesia are amnesia, anxiolysis, the reduction of oxygen consumption and respiratory work, the protection of vital organs and the avoidance of secondary myocardial and cerebral damage. A critical evaluation of the indications for out-of-hospital emergency anaesthesia must take into consideration patient, case and provider-related factors. Rapid sequence induction of emergency anaesthesia includes standard monitoring, preoxygenation, standardised preparation of emergency anaesthesia, drug administration, manual in-line stabilisation during intubation (if necessary), airway management and checking of correct tube placement. Spontaneously breathing casualties should receive preoxygenation for at least 3 to 4 min with a tight-fitting facemask with reservoir using 12 to 15 l min_1 of oxygen or with a demand valve providing 100% oxygen. As an alternative, preoxygenation may be performed as noninvasive ventilation with 100% oxygen. Standardised anaesthesia preparation comprises filling drugs into syringes and labelling them, checking ventilation equipment, preparing endotracheal tube and syringe for inflating the cuff and the introducer, stethoscope and fixation material, preparing alternative instruments for airway management as well as checking suction, ventilation and standard monitoring devices, including capnography. Standard monitoring for out-of-hospital emergency anaesthesia comprises ECG, blood pressure measurement and pulse oximetry. Continuous capnography is always and exclusively performed to check the placement of airway devices, as well as to indirectly monitor haemodynamics.

The European guideline on management of major bleeding and coagulopathy following trauma: fourth edition

4/22/2016

 
Critical Care 2016 20:100   DOI: 10.1186/s13054-016-1265-x   ©  Rossaint et al. 2016

Background: Severe trauma continues to represent a global public health issue and mortality and morbidity in trauma patients remains substantial. A number of initiatives have aimed to provide guidance on the management of trauma patients. This document focuses on the management of major bleeding and coagulopathy following trauma and encourages adaptation of the guiding principles to each local situation and implementation within each institution.

Methods: The pan-European, multidisciplinary Task Force for Advanced Bleeding Care in Trauma was founded in 2004 and included representatives of six relevant European professional societies. The group used a structured, evidence-based consensus approach to address scientific queries that served as the basis for each recommendation and supporting rationale. Expert opinion and current clinical practice were also considered, particularly in areas in which randomised clinical trials have not or cannot be performed. Existing recommendations were reconsidered and revised based on new scientific evidence and observed shifts in clinical practice; new recommendations were formulated to reflect current clinical concerns and areas in which new research data have been generated. This guideline represents the fourth edition of a document first published in 2007 and updated in 2010 and 2013.
​
Results: The guideline now recommends that patients be transferred directly to an appropriate trauma treatment centre and encourages use of a restricted volume replacement strategy during initial resuscitation. Best-practice use of blood products during further resuscitation continues to evolve and should be guided by a goal-directed strategy. The identification and management of patients pre-treated with anticoagulant agents continues to pose a real challenge, despite accumulating experience and awareness. The present guideline should be viewed as an educational aid to improve and standardise the care of the bleeding trauma patients across Europe and beyond. This document may also serve as a basis for local implementation. Furthermore, local quality and safety management systems need to be established to specifically assess key measures of bleeding control and outcome.

Conclusions: A multidisciplinary approach and adherence to evidence-based guidance are key to improving patient outcomes. The implementation of locally adapted treatment algorithms should strive to achieve measureable improvements in patient outcome.
