This is a 2 part question: 1) Can we effectively administer the newly Provincially Mandated IntraNasal Glucagon 3mg (we carry 2 of them at our service + 1 I/M 1mg Glucagon) to treat either a BetaBlocker or a Calcium Channel Blocker OD? 2) Can it be used in conjunction with IV Glucagon to be within the therapeutic range of efficacy.

Question from an ACP role, For a pediatric patient who has a HR less than 60 with poor signs of perfusion (cyanosis/pale and apneic€¦..start chest compressions with airway and ventilations via BVM. The question is do we follow it up with epi? In the PALS algorithm it states to do CPR/ventilations, epi, atropine and consider pacing. This is covered under the newborn arrest directive however it is not covered under the adult/pediatric medical cardiac arrest. What does our base hospital want us to? Would it be appropriate to follow the PALS Bradycardia algorithm?

For pediatric VSAs, at what heart rate do we initiate compressions?
