O07.36

Clinical Causes: Complications during pregnancy termination procedures, such as excessive bleeding or anesthesia reactions Underlying heart or cardiovascular conditions that may be exacerbated by the procedure Severe blood loss leading to hypovolemia and reduced oxygen supply to the heart Hemodynamic instability caused by infections or sepsis resulting from the procedure Adverse reactions to medications used during termination procedures Pre-existing medical conditions that increase the risk of cardiac events

Key Symptoms: Sudden loss of consciousness Absence of pulse or heartbeat Loss of consciousness accompanied by pale, clammy skin Signs of shock, such as low blood pressure and rapid breathing Severe chest pain or discomfort, if the cardiac arrest results in residual symptoms Unresponsiveness and lack of movement

Diagnosis Path: Electrocardiogram (ECG) to detect electrical activity of the heart Blood tests to evaluate oxygen levels, blood cell counts, and possible causes like infections Assessment of blood loss and hemodynamic stability Physical examination, focusing on neurological and cardiovascular status Monitoring of vital signs continuously in a critical care setting

Treatment Protocols: Performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to maintain circulation and oxygenation Applying defibrillation if abnormal heart rhythms like ventricular fibrillation are detected Administering medications such as adrenaline (epinephrine) to support heart function Providing advanced airway management to ensure adequate breathing Correcting underlying causes, such as controlling bleeding or addressing infections Post-resuscitation care, including intensive monitoring and supportive therapies to prevent further complications
