| Abstract: | It is important for all physicians to be familiar with the equipment and medications needed for advanced cardiac life support. The most important aspect in advanced life support is the establishment and maintenance of an airway and ventilation of the patient. Office personnel should be trained in Basic Cardiac Life Support, so that the physician can intubate the patient, start an intravenous line, and administer intravenous medications to support the patient. Appropriate drug dosage tables and defibrillation tables are included in this article. |
