Chain of Survival

At the heart of the guidelines is the Chain of Survival, first presented 20 years ago as a way to simply and graphically highlight the essential and urgent actions needed to maximise the chances of survival after cardiac arrest. 

We will unveil the new 'Chain of Survival' graphics on October 22, after the ERC CPR Guidelines Launch.

In the meantime, familiarise yourself with the previous version of the graphics to get an idea of it.
