The American Heart Association in collaboration with the American Academy of Pediatrics, American Association for Respiratory Care, American College of Emergency Physicians, The Society of Critical Care Anesthesiologists, and American Society of Anesthesiologists recently released a new guidance document surrounding the use of CPR during the COVID-19 pandemic. The guidelines state, “it is reasonable to consider age, comorbidities, and severity of illness in determining the appropriateness of resuscitation and balance the likelihood of success against the risk to rescuers and patients from whom resources are being diverted.” The full guidelines are available at https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.120.047463

Answer the following:

If you were applying the consequential approach – how would you feel about these guidelines?

Identify which approach – consequential, deontology or virtue-based ethics most closely applies to these guidelines. Justify in a sentence or two why you have chosen your answer.

Melanie, the director of a day-care facility, read an article in the morning paper about an E. coli outbreak at another day-care center across town. She was especially concerned to read that the outbreak was caused by one of the volunteer parents who had changed a soiled diaper and then helped make the afternoon snack for the children. Melanie and her staff are fully committed to the safety of the children in their care. She is determined to ensure that good personal hygiene is practiced not only by all the adult teachers and caretakers, but also by the children. In just two weeks she will be starting a new program for the children called "Kid's Kitchen." Children ages four and up will be able to help prepare the daily snack. She felt this was the ideal place to start her personal hygiene program. Melanie decided to observe the staff and the children in preparation for the new program. She noted that one staffer, after changing a soiled baby diaper, wiped the changing table with a paper towel. She then washed her hands. This staffer was also scheduled to help the children prepare the afternoon snack. In the restroom, Melanie observed that the children, often in a hurry to get back to playing, forgot to wash their hands after using the toilet unless reminded to do so. She also noticed that a few of the younger children had difficulty reaching the soap, although they could reach the sink. This situation was not helped by the fact that the soap in one of the soap dispensers was low, while the other dispenser was empty. Realizing that both staff and children come in contact with each other throughout the day, she implemented two different personal hygiene programs: one for teachers and caretakers and one for children. What things would you change or fix in this operation? What would you include when designing the personal hygiene programs? How would you introduce this to the staff and to the children?

You are working in A&E where you are allocated to assess and care for . Mr Smith is a 35-year-old man who became unwell with community acquired pneumonia (CAP). Smith went to his local GP a week ago with a fever, difficulty breathing and a productive cough. At that time, the GP diagnosed Smith as having pneumonia and prescribed a course of oral antibiotics. When the GP assessed John today, he appeared lethargic and drowsy, and stated that he is nauseous and feels “achy all over”. The GP called an ambulance to take Mr Smith to hospital because the antibiotics had not worked, and he was now in acute respiratory distress.

John has a past history of rheumatoid arthritis and is on 25mg oral prednisolone to manage this chronic inflammatory disease.

Your assessment of Mr Smith reveals the following information.

General appearance: pale, diaphoretic, lying against the raised back of the bed (high Fowler’s).

Vital signs: temperature 38.6°C, RR 26 bpm, HR 115bpm, BP 94/65 mmHg, SpO2 92% on RA,

Respiratory: Obvious use of accessory muscles. Difficulty speaking to answer questions. Bronchial breath sounds in both bases & course crackles to mid-zones bilaterally. Productive cough (thick, green sputum).

Laboratory and other investigations: CXR shows consolidation in bilateral lower lobes. Blood culture results sent by his GP are positive for pneumococcal. His serum lactate results have come back as 3.4 mmol/L (normal < 1mmol/L), and his WBC is 16.0 x 109/L (normal 4.5-11 x 109/L). C-reactive protein (CRP) 57mg/l

Medical orders: John is diagnosed with sepsis and acute respiratory failure. He is ordered an IV fluid resuscitation bolus, broad spectrum IV antibiotics, 2L O2 via NP to maintain SpO2 > 95%, close monitoring of vital observations and urine output.

Question:

Describe how each of these aspects of the information presented above has led to the diagnosis of sepsis and acute respiratory failure.
