Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover
This and over 60 other easily memorised phrases are the starting points for Resuscitation Rules. Their accompanying short texts provide a core of authoritative information that can be mentally retained and acted upon in emergency situations.

This pocket sized guide contains succinct rules on the fundamentals of resuscitation, together with helpful line illustrations, for use in the most commonly encountered situations.

Contents include:


  • basic life support.

  • advanced cardiac life support.

  • medical emergencies.

  • paediatric resuscitation.

In line with the current European Resuscitation Council guidelines, the rules are an invaluable support for doctors, nurses and ambulance staff who are called upon to provide resuscitation both in–hospital and pre–hospital.

Customer Reviews

Invaluable aid5
This is a book I frequently pick up as an easy to read refresher, and always come away feeling more confident and that bit sharper. I think the real proof is that when things are getting "tense", it is some of these little rules that pop into my mind. I think the one that has caused me to act promptly on many occasions is arriving to see a sick child or adult and as I look at them "Gasping is not breathing" springs to mind - it means you aren't fooled and stop things becoming worse.

If you're involved in the management of the ill/critically ill, get it and read. Neither you nor your patients will regret it.
