Introduction

Survival from cardiac arrest is determined by the quality of the scientific evidence behind the guidelines, the effectiveness of education and the resources for implementation of the guidelines. 1 x D.A. Chamberlain, M.F. Hazinski. Education in resuscitation. Resuscitation 59 (2003) (11 - 43) Crossref. An additional factor is how readily guidelines can be applied in clinical practice and the effect of human factors on putting the theory into practice. 2 x J. Yeung, G.D. Perkins. Timing of drug administration during CPR and the role of simulation. Resuscitation 81 (2010) (265 - 266) Implementation of Guidelines 2010 is likely to be more successful with a carefully planned, comprehensive implementation strategy that includes education. Delays in providing training materials and freeing staff for training were cited as reasons for delays in the implementation of the 2005 guidelines.3 and 4 x J. Berdowski, A. Schmohl, J.G.
