• Resumen

  • RECOVER was created to optimize survival of small animal patients from cardiopulmonary arrest. Several findings from this study are applicable to cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the neonatal foal. In particular, chest compressions should be a priority with no pauses and a “push hard, push fast” approach. The importance of ventilation is minimized with short, infrequent breaths at a rate of 10 to 20 per minute recommended.
