摘要

The American Heart Association (AHA) revised the Pediatric Basic and Advanced Life Support guidelines in 2025 to reflect on the current evidence and best practices. The key changes include a special emphasis on post-cardiac arrest care, prognostication, and survivorship. Other major changes include the elimination of 2-finger chest compressions in infants with a recommendation of compressing the chest with the heel-of-1-hand technique or 2-thumb–encircling hands technique; the preferential and immediate use of an automated external defibrillator with a pediatric attenuator, if available, for cardiac arrest; and in children with severe foreign-body airway obstruction repeated cycles of 5 back blows alternating with 5 abdominal thrusts.
