The ASAP CPR
(Adult Synergy Arrest Protocol)
Treatment Algorithms
AHA Approved for High Performance Teams
Professional
Rescuers finally have the tools and training necessary to improve survival rates from OHCA.
The ASAP Advanced Life Support HPT (High-Performance Team Training) System—a comprehensive, easy-to-use training solution designed for any responding agency.
ASAP HPT uniquely targets the two leading causes of adult cardiac arrest. By compartmentalizing team actions, it minimizes reliance on the unnecessary initial team leader guidance and prioritizes the rapid execution of interventions proven to address these top causes.
Certification is awarded upon the successful completion of our online written examination.
The I-Gel
The I-Gel has been recognized as the preferred initial airway adjunct within the ASAP Protocols due to its distinct characteristics and benefits.
The Lucas Device
The incorporation of the Lucas device significantly enhances the quality of chest compressions during cardiac resuscitation. This advanced mechanical apparatus ensures consistent and effective compressions, with its precision and operational efficiency contributing to improved patient outcomes. AHA Recommendations for Mechanical CPR DevicesCOR
LOE
Recommendations 2b C-LD
1. The use of mechanical CPR devices may be considered in specific settings where the delivery of high-quality manual compressions may be challenging or dangerous for the provider, as long as rescuers strictly limit interruptions in CPR during deployment and removal of the device.3: No Benefit B-R2. The routine use of mechanical CPR devices is not recommended.
The Res-Q Pod
The ResQPOD can:
- Double blood flow to the heart
- Increase blood flow to the brain by 50%
- increase survival from cardiac arrest by 25% or more
- Lower intracranial pressure (ICP)
- Increase cardiac output
- Improve neurologically-intact survival rates
- Double systolic blood pressure levels
- Increase the likelihood of successful defibrillation
to date, the AHA still does not recommend the use of the Res-Q-Pod
