Abstract
This chapter discusses resuscitation in critical care and includes discussion on basic and advanced resuscitation (including prevention of cardiac arrests, in-hospital resuscitation, risks to the rescuer, high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation [CPR], advanced life support, the use of automated mechanical chest compression devices, extracorporeal CPR, postresuscitation care, outcome, and CPR on the intensive care unit), postcardiac arrest management (the postcardiac arrest syndrome, airway and ventilation, circulation, disability, temperature control, prognostication, rehabilitation, and cardiac arrest centres), and fluid challenge (rationale, the problem with a fluid bolus therapy, clinical indicators of hypovolaemia, performing a fluid challenge, type of fluid, and the future).
