Emergency cardiovascular care (ECC) guidelines<\/span><\/h2>\n

Emergency cardiovascular care (ECC) guidelines were first published in 1974 [1]. Subsequent guidelines were published in 1980 [2], 1986 [3] and 1992 [4]<\/p>\n

By 2000, it became a combined effort of American Heart Association (AHA) in collaboration with International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) [5]. ILCOR systematically reviews resuscitation science and forms evidence based guidelines. They have formed six task forces, one each for basic life support, advanced life support, acute coronary syndromes, pediatric life support, neonatal life support, and an interdisciplinary task force which addresses overlapping topics such as education. Two additional task forces were formed by AHA for stroke and first aid, making a total of eight task forces. The final result was the 2005 International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science With Treatment Recommendations<\/em> [6].<\/p>\n

The guidelines were subsequently being revised once in every 5 years. One important change is the revision from ABC (airway, breathing, circulation) sequence to CAB (circulation, airway, breathing) to give more stress on chest compressions. In 2015 there was a transition in the ILCOR evidence evaluation process and the development of guidelines by AHA. Henceforth it will be a continuous simultaneous process, with systematic reviews performed as new published evidence warrants [7].<\/p>\n
