🚨 The 2025 AHA Guidelines are here! 🚨
The new 2025 ECC Guidelines were officially published today. I highly recommend reading through the Highlights document — it’s a great summary of what’s new.

I don’t see any major or monumental changes to the BLS or Heartsaver curriculum, but a few key takeaways I think are worth noting:

✅ Single Chain of Survival now applies to both in-hospital and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest
✅ 5 back slaps + 5 abdominal thrusts for all responsive choking (FBAO) victims
✅ Increased emphasis on naloxone access and use
✅ One-handed compressions or encircling thumbs for infants (instead of two fingers)
✅ Displacement of the bra instead of full removal when using an AED
✅ No CPR technique changes for obese patients
✅ Reinforcement that mechanical CPR devices are not routinely recommended
✅ For lay rescuers: updated dispatcher guidance — Hands-Only CPR for adults, breaths included for children

What is sepsis? Sepsis is a life-threatening reaction to an infection. It happens when your immune system overreacts to an infection and starts to damage your body's own tissues and organs. If you have any of these symptoms don’t wait! Visit your local go or A&E
