    @American_Heart You guys deciding that HCWs shouldn’t be allowed to don PPE before entering a COVID pt room in 2021 didn’t help. You allowed hospitals to sacrifice HCWs for what?? So the anti-maskers would be more comfortable? YOU helped contribute to our burnout. https://t.co/jnlpbqB4bo

Abstract Synopsis

  • The 2021 Interim Guidance outlines protocols for healthcare providers delivering Basic and Advanced Cardiac Life Support (BLS and ALS) in adults, children, and neonates suspected or confirmed to have COVID-19.
  • It emphasizes the importance of using personal protective equipment (PPE) and modifying standard procedures to minimize the risk of virus transmission during resuscitation efforts.
  • The guidelines also prioritize immediate care while considering the unique challenges posed by COVID-19, ensuring that the health and safety of both patients and providers are maintained.
