Every 5 years the American Heart Association (AHA) updates the Guidelines for CPR and Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC). The ECC Guidelines 2000 incorporates all the current consensus of experts, from not only a variety of disciplines, but also a variety of countries and cultures and is evidence based. The new Guidelines emphasize interventions to reduce the risk of sudden deaths, early identification of respiratory failure and shock and implementation of Advanced Life Support (ALS) to treat respiratory and cardiac arrest.
