We've assembled an array of links to current resuscitation algorithms published by resuscitation councils such as the NZRC/ARC, the ERC and other notable organisations. There's Advanced Paediatric Life Support (APLS) algorithms and NEW GUIDELINES on managing cardiac arrest when confronted by a case of confirmed or suspected COVID-19.

It is a great way to see how clinic teams perform in their own resuscitation rooms, using their own equipment and facing their own challenges which are often unique to their working environment.
