Why has CPR changed?
Millions of healthcare professionals worldwide rely on the American Heart Associations (AHA) Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) in their mission to save more lives. These 2005 guidelines (G2005) are based on a systematic, evidence-based review of resuscitation science. The science is always changing, which is why the American Heart Association Guidelines for CPR and Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC) are updated every five years with additional Scientific Statements released when necessary.
