  • Guidelines for cardiac arrest management were analyzed to assess the strength and quality of the evidence supporting them, revealing both strengths and significant gaps in knowledge.
  • The review of the 2020 American Heart Association (AHA) Guidelines identified 254 recommendations, mostly classified under advanced life support (ALS) and basic life support (BLS), but only 1% of recommendations were based on the strongest level of evidence (LOE A).
  • Only 32% of the highest class recommendations were backed by strong evidence (LOE A or B), highlighting the need for more rigorous research, especially randomized trials, to improve the quality of guidelines.
