Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation↗
[New guidelines for basic and advanced resuscitation of adults and children].
We present the latest changes in the guidelines for resuscitation from the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR). Defibrillation performed by non-medical personnel is more strongly endorsed than before. In unintubated patients the ventilation-to-compression ratio should always be 2:15. With a foreign body in the airway of an unconscious patient, compressions should be performed instead of the Heimlich manoeuvre. Amiodarone 300 mg intravenously is the first choice in refractory ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia in adults. Intubation of children is only recommended when performed by experienced personnel. The use of drugs is less recommended than previously; albumin is not recommended for the newly born.
