Abstract

Throughout this article, the reader will notice combinations of superscripted letters and numbers (eg, "Cricoid Pressure ALS-CPR&A-007B "). These callouts are hyperlinked to evidence-based worksheets, which were used in the development of this article. An appendix of worksheets, applicable to this article, is located at the end of the text. The worksheets are available in PDF format and are open access. The topics reviewed by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) Advanced Life Support Task Force are grouped as follows: (1) airway and ventilation, (2) supporting the circulation during cardiac arrest, (3) periarrest arrhythmias, (4) cardiac arrest in special circumstances, (5) identifying reversible causes, (6) postresuscitation care, (7) prognostication, and (8) organ donation. Defibrillation topics are discussed in Part 6.
