Article Synopsis
- The eighth annual summary from the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) focuses on the latest findings in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and emergency cardiovascular care, building on a comprehensive review from 2020.
- This summary is based on the evaluation of recent resuscitation evidence by experts from six different ILCOR task forces, who utilized specific criteria to assess the quality of evidence and reached consensus treatment recommendations.
- The document also identifies key areas where more research is needed, sharing insights into the task forces’ discussions through sections like Justification and Evidence-to-Decision Framework Highlights.
This is the eighth annual summary of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science With Treatment Recommendations; a more comprehensive review was done in 2020. This latest summary addresses the most recent published resuscitation evidence reviewed by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation task force science experts. Members from 6 International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation task forces have assessed, discussed, and debated the quality of the evidence, using Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation criteria, and their statements include consensus treatment recommendations.

Design: Desk-based analysis of REF2021 published data.
Methods: We searched the REF2021 impact database with the term nurs* then sorted case studies into categories representing the involvement of nurses on the research team.
Article Synopsis
- Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is becoming the most common type of heart failure, but patients often lack access to specialized care, leading to poorer health outcomes.
- The review will analyze existing literature and consult experts to assess current care pathways for HFpEF in the UK, aiming to create a better framework for treatment.
- By combining insights from both academic and public sources, the findings will highlight challenges in care and inform improvements for HFpEF services, potentially benefiting broader healthcare practices in Europe.
Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of life support training with specific emphasis on team competencies on clinical and educational outcomes.
Methods: This systematic review was prospectively registered (PROSPERO CRD42023473154) and followed the PICOST (population, intervention, comparison, outcome, study design, timeframe) format. All randomized controlled trials and non-randomized studies evaluating learners undertaking life support training with specific emphasis on team competencies in any setting (actual and simulated resuscitations) were included.
