摘要

With the release of the 2010 American Heart Association (AHA) Guidelines for cardiopulmonary resuscitation and emergency cardiac care, evidence regarding management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest suggests a more fundamental approach, including an emphasis on chest compressions and early defibrillation. To aid in understanding and learning, this article proposes a method that optimizes the timing and delivery of evidence-proven therapies with a 3-phased approach for out-of-hospital resuscitation from ventricular fibrillation and pulseless ventricular tachycardia. Although this model is not a new concept, it is largely based on the 2010 AHA Guidelines, enhancing the philosophy of the "CAB" concept (Chest compressions/Airway management/Breathing rescue).
