Gaps found in parturient resuscitation knowledge.(Obstetrics)
PALM DESERT, CALF. -- Obstetricians, emergency physicians, and anesthesiologists may suffer significant knowledge gaps when it comes to resuscitation of parturients, suggest survey results presented in poster form at the annual meeting of the Society for Obstetric Anesthesia and Perinatology.
Faculty and residents in all three groups of specialists at Stanford (Calif.) University responded to an 11-question anonymous survey covering four critical knowledge areas concerning parturient resuscitation after catastrophic events leading to cardiorespiratory arrest:
* Awareness of the need for left uterine displacement.
* Recall of specific standard advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) algorithms.
* Knowledge of pertinent maternal physiology.
* Awareness of the recommendation to perform cesarean section in parturients at more than 20 weeks' gestation after 5 minutes of unsuccessful resuscitation for cardiac arrest.
Among 74 respondents, anesthesiologists answered the most questions correctly (average 76%). They were also better informed than other specialists about relevant maternal physiology.
