IO stands for intraosseous. One can establish vascular access by using a very stiff needle and drilling it into a bone ( usually the leg) so as to reach the marrow cavity. An IV can then be hooked up and fluids and medications can be administered into the bone marrow, where it will move to the circulation in the body.

Differentiate between memory mapped IO and IO mapped IO?

Memory mapped IO involves using memory addresses to access IO devices, treating them as if they were memory locations. IO mapped IO involves using separate IO addresses distinct from memory addresses to access IO devices. Memory mapped IO simplifies programming and can improve performance, while IO mapped IO offers better separation between memory and IO devices.

Endotracheal Drug Adminstration during a cardiac arrest?

Drugs, such as epinephrine, atropine, naloxone, and lidocaine can be given via the endotracheal route if IV access has not been obtained yet. The dose for epinephrine, rather than 1mg IV, should be 5mg endotracheally, followed by 5 to 10 mL of saline and several rapid breaths to aerosolize it into the lungs. ACLS currently recommends this approach, but there have been no studies showing benefit to this route of administration. I would recommend rapid IV access, and if no IV access if available within 90 seconds, placement if an intraosseous line should be attempted immediately afterwards and all medications given through that line. That is standard practice at many hospitals in this area as well as many EMS services.
