1 MABEES MFR & Basic EMT Epinephrine Study
2 Acknowledgements This program is a State of Michigan approved special study designed by members of the Oakland County Medical Control Authority American CME developed the training program The State of Michigan originally approved the Basic EMT Epinephrine Study (BEES). They recently approved the Washtenaw/Livingston MCA to expand the study to include MFRs. The study is now the MFR & Basic EMT Epinephrine Study (MABEES).
3 Objectives Understand the intent and purpose of MABEES. List and describe the indications for the administration of intramuscular (IM) epinephrine. Recall the adult and pediatric dosages of epinephrine when given IM and cite relevant protocols. List and describe the 5 rights of medication administration.
4 Objectives Discuss techniques to minimize risk of needle stick injury. Describe relevant W/L MCA and LSA procedures in the event of an exposure. Describe the contents and use of the W/L MCA Epi-Kit. Identify the MFR and BLS units that will carry the W/L MCA Epi- Kit. Describe and demonstrate how to draw up epinephrine from a vial and administer via IM injection using the W/L MCA Epi-Kit.
5 Objectives Describe how to document epinephrine indications, effects, and administration. Describe and demonstrate how to complete an W/L MCA MFR or BLS Medication Kit Exchange Form. Describe the LSA s procedure that assures a copy of the Patient Care Report (PCR) and a copy of the W/L MCA MFR or BLS Medication Exchange Form are submitted to the W/L MCA.
6 Introduction Understand the intent and purpose of MABEES. Epinephrine auto-injectors represent a significant expense.
7 Introduction MABEES Special Study Protocols: 1-4 Anaphylaxis/Allergic Reaction 1-15 Respiratory Distress 3-2 Pediatric Anaphylaxis/Allergic Reaction 3-4 Pediatric Bronchospasm 6M-1 BLS Medication Kit Contents and Exchange Procedure 6M-6 MFR Medication Kit Contents and Exchange Procedure Modified to meet study criteria
8 Introduction Intramuscular injection (IM) of epinephrine. Eliminates expense of epinephrine auto-injectors. Same drug, same dose.
9 Epinephrine Review Describe the effects of epinephrine. Vascular effects: Reverses vasodilation Causes vascular constriction Pulmonary effects: Effective bronchodilator Pulmonary vasodilator
10 Epinephrine Review Describe the effects of epinephrine. Pharmacokinetics: Onset time of 3-5 minutes when administered IM. Remains in the body 1-4 hours. Best effect when administered IM into the vastus lateralis. (Lateral Thigh)
11 Epinephrine Review Side effects Vary from patient to patient and include: Tremors Chills Anxiety Nausea Vomiting Tachycardia Palpitations Angina Hypertension
12 Epinephrine Review Indications for IM Epinephrine: Adult Anaphylaxis Asthma/COPD Pediatrics Anaphylaxis Severe respiratory distress or failure resulting from bronchospasm
13 Epinephrine Review Indications for IM Epinephrine Adult: Anaphylaxis sudden onset, systemic allergic reaction that can cause rapid death if not immediately identified and appropriately treated. Causes: Food, drug, latex, insect stings
14 Anaphylaxis Signs and Symptoms Vary greatly from patient to patient Hives, itching, flushing of the skin Tachycardia Wheezing Hypotension Anxiety Shortness of breath Nausea Vomiting
15 Anaphylaxis WHEN IN DOUBT, GET THE EPI OUT!
16 Epinephrine Review Indications for IM epinephrine: Adults with impending respiratory failure from: Asthma COPD
17 Asthma/COPD Indications for IM epinephrine: Impending respiratory failure. Exacerbation of asthma/copd. History should support suspicion Inability to tolerate nebulizer therapy.
18 Asthma Asthma patients received epinephrine before albuterol became the drug of choice.
19 Asthma/COPD Patients with impending respiratory failure should receive epinephrine IM. Benefits of epinephrine: Bronchodilation occurs throughout lung tissue. Rapid onset. No patient coaching (as with nebulizer treatment).
20 Contraindications There is no absolute contraindication for epinephrine. A patient that cannot breathe may have elevated vital signs: Tachycardia Hypertension ASK YOURSELF WHY?
21 Epinephrine Dosing Recall the adult and pediatric dosages of epinephrine when given IM and cite relevant protocols. Adult: Anaphylaxis/Allergic Reaction Respiratory Distress
22 Epinephrine Dosing Adult Anaphylaxis: In cases of severe allergic reaction, wheezing or hypotension, Administer epinephrine 1 mg/ml, 0.3 mg (0.3 ml) IM OR via adult auto-injector. Vial brand and labeling may vary
23 Epinephrine Dosing Adult Anaphylaxis Post-Medical Control: Administer additional epinephrine 1 mg/ml, 0.3 mg (0.3 ml) IM OR via adult epinephrine auto-injector.
24 Epinephrine Dosing Adult Asthma/COPD: Administer epinephrine 1 mg/ml, 0.3 mg (0.3 ml) IM in patients with impending respiratory failure unable to tolerate nebulizer therapy. Vial brand and labeling may vary
25 Epinephrine Dosing Adult Asthma/COPD Post-Medical Control: Consider additional epinephrine 1 mg/ml, 0.3 mg (0.3 ml) IM in patients with impending respiratory failure unable to tolerate nebulizer therapy.
26 Epinephrine Dosing Pediatric patients: What do they weigh? Utilize standardized length based tool to accurately estimate weight. Ask parents for accurate weight Never estimate weight
27 Epinephrine Dosing Pediatric Anaphylaxis Allergic Reaction < 10 kg (approx. 20 lbs.): Contact medical control prior to epinephrine administration if possible.
28 Epinephrine Dosing Pediatric Anaphylaxis Allergic Reaction kg (approx lbs.): Administer epinephrine 1 mg/ml 0.15 mg (0.15 ml) IM OR via pediatric epinephrine auto-injector.
