Abstract

The new guidelines for paediatric life support were issued in November 2005. The approach to changes has been to alter the guidelines in response to convincing new scientific evidence, and were possible, to simplify them in order to assist teaching and retention. In this paper the guidelines for paediatric life support 2000 were compared with guidelines for paediatric life support 2005.
