“心脏骤停”是指临床上心脏突然停止跳动,导致突然的循环衰竭而言。由于呼吸衰竭是心搏骤停的重要原因,以及在心脏停顿后20～30秒钟经常发生呼吸衰竭,同时,从治疗观点看,心脏复苏倘若不同时进行有效的呼吸复苏,则抢救常告失败,因此,目前多称之为“心肺骤停”,其抢救过程称为“心肺复苏术”。通过伟大的无产阶级文化大革命,在毛主席革命路线指引下,我国革命医务工作者一次又一次地抢救了心脏停顿61分钟甚至更长时间的病人,为世界医学作出了重要的贡献。现将“心肺骤停”若干问题分述于下,供临床参考。 “Cardiac arrest” means a sudden stop of heart beat in the clinic leading to sudden circulatory failure. Respiratory failure is an important cause of cardiac arrest, and respiratory failure often occurs 20 to 30 seconds after the cardiac arrest. At the same time, from the therapeutic point of view, if the heart resuscitation does not perform effective respiratory resuscitation at the same time, the rescue often fails , So, at present more called “cardiopulmonary arrest”, the rescue process is called “cardiopulmonary resuscitation.” Through the great Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, under the guidance of Chairman Mao’s revolutionary line, our revolutionary medical workers have again and again rescued patients whose hearts have been paused for 61 minutes or longer, making an important contribution to world medicine. Now “cardioversion” a number of issues described in the next for clinical reference.
