Scientific Advisory Statement

The American Heart Association has just released a science advisory recommending bystander "Hands-Only CPR" for witnessed adult sudden cardiac arrest. What type of rescuer should perform "Hands-Only CPR"? What type of victim should receive "Hands-Only CPR"? What if the victim is an infant or child or has had a respiratory arrest? What are the implications for training?

You can learn about the "Hands-Only CPR" initiative at ECCU 2008. The Chair of the AHA Basic Life Support Subcommittee, Diana Cave R.N.,M.S.N.,C.E.N., and the first author of the published science advisory, Michael Sayre, M.D., will present the rationale for the science advisory and answer your questions about this important approach to bystander CPR.

Register now! The deadline for early registration is rapidly approaching. We're looking forward to seeing you in Las Vegas!

The Citizen CPR Foundation advocates the Chain of Survival model of emergency cardiovascular care. The Chain of Survival includes four links: 1) early access, 2) early cardiopulmonary resuscitation, 3) early defibrillation, and 4) early advanced care. The likelihood of surviving sudden cardiac arrest can be improved when each link in this chain of community response is strengthened.
