Crash Carts can be found in almost every medical treatment facility throughout the world. Though the exact contents of a crash cart may vary from facility to facility, they typically include emergency medication, medical supplies, and equipment designed to treat a patient that is in or near cardiac arrest. They are typically organized around Advanced Life Support (ALS) or Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) protocols.
Depending on the facility’s specializations, there are many different carts that the facility could choose. A typical pediatric cart, for example, has 9 drawers, with each drawer containing different sizes of the same supplies to prepare for the wide variety of sizes between newborn, toddler, and young adult patients. An isolation cart is typically stocked with gloves, patient gowns, and other personal protection items that might be needed in a pinch.
In a hospital there is usually an entire supply department that organizes, fills, and keeps track of the facility’s crash carts. However, for most medical education facilities, this time consuming task falls to the instructors.
