@TiaTiaraymond @AlexisTopjian just announced a big change in the @HeartCPR Pediatric #CPR guidelines...ventilate 20-30 times per minute during CPR in children with an airway in place. Based, in part, on @CritCareMed publication by @SuttonB_ICUMD #PedsICU #CPRsaveslives Take-home messages:

1. High-quality #CPR is the foundation of resuscitation. New data reaffirm the key components of high-quality CPR: adequate compression rate / depth, minimizing interruptions, allowing full chest recoil between compressions, & avoiding excessive ventilation.
