Opioid Overdose • Amount of opioid used—alone or mixed with other substances—overwhelms body’s ability to handle it • Often from mixing w/ benzos, cocaine, alcohol OD can be from using any opioid for any reason • How? Lack of enough oxygen in the blood Organ failure Unconsciousness, Coma, Death • Surviving an opioid OD = Breathing + Oxygen 10
Signs & Symptoms of Opioid OD § § § § Loud snoring or gurgling noises Body very limp Not responsive Skin pale/gray, clammy Lips/fingertips turn blue or gray Pulse slow or erratic Breathing very slow, shallow, or not at all Unconscious Maryland ORP Core Curriculum 11
Responding to an Opioid OD 1. Rouse and Stimulate 2. Call 9 -1 -1 3. Give naloxone (Narcan) 4. Assist breathing 5. Care for the Person 12
Step 1: Rouse & Stimulate Noise: Shake person’s shoulders and yell: “[Name!] Are you all right? Wake up!” Pain: If no answer, do a sternal (sternum) rub: rub Make a fist, rub your knuckles firmly up and down the breast bone. 13
Step 2: Call 9 -1 -1 Ø Tell 9 -1 -1 operator: ü Where you are ü Person not breathing or not responsive Ø Tell emergency responder on site: ü Drugs/substances person used ü How much naloxone given, when Why call for help? – – Complications or other health problems Naloxone effect is temporary (30 -90 mins) May need to give additional dose. May be a non-opioid OD situation. 14
Good Samaritan Law Gives you some legal protections if you seek and/or provide medical assistance (i. e. Call 911) for someone experiencing an OD: • Immunity from arrest for certain minor crimes*, if the evidence was obtained solely as a result of your actions in trying to aid the victim. • Immunity extends to OD victim *Drug-related misdemeanors only *Does protect against felonies or loss of other benefits (e. g. financial aid, immigration) 15
Step 3: Give Naloxone 16
Naloxone (Narcan®) • Reverses opioid OD, by restoring breathing – No effect on someone who has not taken opioids • Wears off in 30 - 90 minutes – Works by temporarily knocking opioids off receptors in brain • • No potential for abuse or getting high Side effects minimal and rare Safe for children + pregnant women Intranasal (“nasal”), Intramuscular, or IV 17
How To Administer Nasal Naloxone Step 1: Remove 2 yellow caps 1: from syringe Naloxone vial Atomizer Step 2: Screw nasal atomizer 2: into top of syringe Step 3: Remove cap from vial 3: Step 4: Twist naloxone vial into syringe until it “catches” 1 mg/1 m. L Needle-less syringe (delivery device) 18
