THE RECOVER INITIATIVE -CONSENSUS ON BASIC AND ADVANCED LIFE SUPPORT DURING CPR

摘要

Veterinary protocols lor cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) have been largely adapted from those promoted by the American Heart Association for people. The Reassessment Campaign on Veterinary Resuscitation (RECOVER) recently completed a systematic review of the literature relevant to veterinary CPR and developed the first evidence-based, consensus CPR guidelines for small animals (http://www.acvecc-recover.org). This web site contains thorough worksheets documenting the literature supporting the recommendations contained in this document. A summary of the consensus guidelines is presented here.
