The Comprehensive Cardiopulmonary Life Support (CCLS) guideline offers a step-by-step approach for managing adult patients experiencing cardiopulmonary arrest within hospitals by trained medics and paramedics. Developed with India’s healthcare infrastructure in mind and based on international and national evidence, it emphasizes early recognition of at-risk patients and timely intervention. CPR components include chest compressions, airway maintenance, ventilation, and defibrillation. The guideline also highlights the importance of integrating airway management, medications, identifying and correcting underlying causes, teamwork, and post-resuscitation care.
