1 Pediatric (BP, weight conversion) Information Reference Reviewed: Updated: Blood pressure Minimal systolic BP = 70 + (2 x age) Normal systolic BP = 90 + (2 x age) Estimation of Pediatric Weight (2 x age) + 8 = weight in (kilograms) Weight in pounds 2.2 = weight in (kilograms) Weight in kilograms x 2.2 = weight in lbs (pounds) Pediatric Endotracheal Tube Size ETT size (age/4)
2 General: Universal Patient Care/Initial Patient Care Protocol Reviewed: Updated: 15 History Physical Differential Diagnoses PEARL/S: Complete vital signs should be taken every five (5) minutes for critical patients and every 15 minutes for non-critical patients. Complete vital signs include a minimum of heart/pulse rate, respiratory rate and blood pressure. In most cases on-scene times should be limited to ten (10) minutes. Do not delay oxygen therapy to obtain pulse oximetry reading. All patients that refuse transport must have documented vital signs and the refusal must be signed. Scene safety/personal protective equipment Primary Assessment with initial interventions as needed. Supplemental O2 (see Oxygen Administration Guideline); capnography as indicated Obtain and document: Vital signs SAMPLE history Pain assessment OPQRST (medical) DCAP-BTLS (trauma) Consider glucometry if indicated Cardiac monitor/12-lead ECG as indicated. Appropriate protocol/consider differential diagnoses. If no protocol applies or condition is unknown consult medical command. Transport per guidelines.
