Overview

Resuscitation is the set of emergency procedures used to restore breathing and circulation in a person whose heart or breathing has stopped or is failing. It includes cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), airway and ventilation support, defibrillation, and the administration of drugs and fluids, and it is a cornerstone of emergency, anesthetic, and critical-care medicine. Successful resuscitation depends on early recognition of cardiac or respiratory arrest and the rapid, coordinated delivery of life-support measures, with outcomes strongly influenced by how quickly effective intervention begins. Research relevant to resuscitation published in the journal includes a case report of reversible cerebral lesion and irreversible cerebral necrosis following cardiorespiratory arrest, work on lactic acidosis as a marker of severe metabolic disturbance in critically ill patients, training studies on advanced life support in obstetrics, and reports on alternatives to mechanical ventilation such as diaphragmatic pacing. Together these contributions reflect the clinical concerns of resuscitation and post-arrest care, from training and physiology to outcomes. This page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access research relevant to resuscitation and anesthesia, offering an evidence-based resource for readers interested in emergency life support and critical-care management.
