ABSTRACT

The cardiorespiratory arrest is one of the most serious and compromised situations in life. The purpose of this work is to make an update on the teaching of cardiopulmonary cerebral resuscitation. The website of the National Medical Library of the United States (PubMed) was visited with the following keywords: teaching and reanimation, and with the filter activated for the last five years, in humans and complete text. The coronary heart disease is the leading cause of death in the world. Its most severe manifestation is sudden death, and ventricular fibrillation is the most frequent electrocardiographic pace. Its main treatment is the effective cardiopulmonary resuscitation and early defibrillation. It seems necessary to establish effective methods of instruction, where the use of simulated clinical scenarios can be a useful tool to enhance learning and assessment of terminal skills for the medicine graduated.
