Abstract

Given the current situation of pandemic produced by the SARS-COV-2 virus (COVID-19), doubts arise about the safety of performing Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) in this new context, maintaining the objective of providing the best possible care to all patients. The different international and national resuscitation organizations (ILCOR, ERC, AHA, SEMICYUC, Plan Nacional de RCP, etc.) have published their recommendations with little evidence, pending further studies. This article has attempted to summarize these recommendations in the different scenarios where a Cardiorespiratory Arrest may occur in the form of a Decalogue
