if at any time there are signs of life, such as regular respiratory effort, coughing, eye opening or a sudden increase in end tidal CO2, RCEC-stop CPR and check the monitor:
  • If still VF/pVT, continue with the sequence as above
  • If asystole, change to the asystole/PEA sequence
  • If organised electrical activity is seen, check for signs of life and a pulse; if there is ROSC, continue post resuscitation care. If there is no pulse (or a pulse below 60 beats/min with no signs of circulation) and no other signs of life continue the asystole/PEA sequence
