Abstract

These guidelines were developed by a team of leading experts and representatives of the Federation of Anesthesiologists and Reanimatologists, the Russian Society of Emergency Medicine, the National Resuscitation Council and the Russian Society of First Aid.

The guidelines provide a comprehensive framework for resuscitating adult patients with circulatory arrest. They cover: standardized terminology related to cardiac arrest; etiology and pathogenesis of cardiac arrest; epidemiology of both out-of-hospital and in-hospital cardiac arrest; diagnostic principles; algorithms for basic life support, including the use of automated external defibrillators; advanced cardiac life support protocols; special considerations for extracorporeal life support (ECLS); resuscitation procedures in catheterization laboratories, for cardiac surgery patients, and during labor; legal aspects of justified withdrawal (termination) from resuscitation efforts; quality indicators in emergency care.

The guidelines also feature illustrated step-by-step algorithms for resuscitation procedures. The document includes 14 appendices and 232 references.
