Life-Saving Algorithms

We have designed this education with the intention of empowering everyone to take action in a life-threatening situation. No matter your current medical experience or knowledge, this education provides you with the tools to confidently intervene.

To give the victim the greatest chance of survival with brain and heart function still intact, the ILCOR highlights the importance of coordinated care within a system. This care begins with a systematic approach to basic life support, proceeds to the interventions detailed in advanced life support, and concludes with post-resuscitation care designed to return the victim to optimal health. These methodical guidelines are displayed in the form of algorithms for each level of life support. The ILCOR recommends reviewing these algorithms and the ideas behind them at least once every two years.

ACLS Algorithms

We have designed these ACLS algorithms to overview the advanced interventions necessary for responding to and treating cardiac emergencies in adults.

PALS Algorithms

We have designed these PALS algorithms to assist in guiding responses to life-threatening emergencies involving an infant or a child.

BLS Algorithms

We have designed these BLS algorithms to inform both single rescuers and teams of 2 or more rescuers on how to deliver high-quality CPR and AED use for early defibrillation for potential adult or pediatric cases.

CPR Algorithms

We have designed these CPR algorithms to accommodate individuals with or without medical training.

Covid-19 Algorithms

We have designed these COVID-19 algorithms to prepare individuals to recognize a cardiac arrest and deliver high-quality CPR and AED use for early defibrillation for suspected or confirmed COVID-19 patients.
