New science, innovations, and guidelines surrounding resuscitation strategies for sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) develop at a rapid pace, and the Citizen CPR Foundation (CCPRF) is dedicated to ensuring lay rescuers and the healthcare community are kept up to date.
CCPRF was founded in 1987 with a vision to “strengthen the Chain of Survival” following sudden cardiac arrest by educating lay rescuers, dispatchers, EMTs and paramedics, emergency department personnel, and specialists in intensive care units. The foundation’s biennial Emergency Cardiovascular Care Update (ECCU) Conference transformed into the Cardiac Arrest Survival Summit and this year to simply the Citizen CPR Foundation Virtual Summit, which was held Dec. 8–9, 2020.
