Early Attempts at Resuscitation
Elisha's mouth to mouth resuscitation (Bible, 2 Kings, IV, 34): "...And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands; and he stretched himself upon the child; and the flesh of the child waxed warm."

Scientific and Programmatic Highlights of the Modern History of CPR
1740 The Paris Academy of Sciences officially recommends mouth-to-mouth resuscitation for drowning victims.1767 The Society for the Recovery of Drowned Persons becomes the first organized effort to deal with sudden death. 1891 Dr. Friedrich Maass performs the first documented chest compression in humans. 1903 Dr. George Crile reports the first successful use of external chest compressions in human resuscitation. 1954 James Elam is the first to prove that expired air is sufficient to maintain adequate oxygenation. 1956 Peter Safar and James Elam invent mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. 1957 The United States military adopts the mouth-to-mouth resuscitation method to revive unresponsive victims. 1960 CPR is developed. The AHA starts a program to acquaint physicians with close-chest cardiac resuscitation. 1963 Cardiologist Leonard Scherlis starts the AHA's CPR Committee, and the same year, the AHA formally endorses CPR. 1966 Standardized training and performance standards for CPR are established. 1972 Leonard Cobb holds the world's first mass citizen training in CPR in Seattle, Washington called Medic 2.1981 A program to provide telephone instructions in CPR begins in King County, Washington. 1984 A program with fire fighter EMTs using AEDs begins in King County, Washington1991 The chain of survival is introduced in 1991 as a model of efficiency and synergy in resuscitation efforts.2000 The world’s first international conference is assembled specifically to produce international resuscitation guidelines.2005 ILCOR publishes the 2005 International Consensus on CPR and ECC Science with Treatment Recommendations.
2010 The International Consensus on CPR and ECC Science with Treatment Recommendations is planned for publication in October.

The chain of survival was first introduced in 1991 as a model of efficiency and synergy in resuscitation efforts
European Resuscitation Council
I. The 3-phase model in VT/VF arrest integrating and characterizing specifically the time relationships
of the value of rapid defibrillation, CPR performance, and the need for other measures.
Phase Time Intervention
I. Electrical 0-5 min Defibrillation
II. Circulatory 5-15 min Chest Compressions
III. Metabolic >15 min Hypothermia

XII. Quality of CPR Performance
Summary and Conclusions
• Advances in resuscitative medicine are founded on the basic science understanding of physiology and pathophysiology as well as advances in understanding of the causal mechanisms involved in successful or unsuccessful resuscitation.
• Survival is correlated with the speed and quality with which definitive therapies such as chest compressions and defibrillation are begun after cardiac arrest.
Push hard, push fast, minimize interruptions.
• Automated detection algorithms and technological advances in early defibrillation, chest compression, and post cardiac arrest care have the potential to increase survival to discharge in patients with out-of-hospital and in-hospital cardiac arrest.
