- Criteria: Team Leader, Bradycardia Management, VF/Pulseless V-tach Management, Asystole Management, Post Cardiac Arrest Care
Team Leader
- Ensure high quality CPR: Crucial at all times
- Assign team member roles: Clearly defined roles are essential
- Ensure team members perform well: Ensure all team members work effectively
Bradycardia Management
- Start oxygen if needed: Administer if necessary

- Recognize symptomatic bradycardia: Identify symptoms of bradycardia
- Administer correct dose of atropine: Precise dosage according to protocols
- Prepare for second-line treatment: Procedures for subsequent treatment options
VF/Pulseless V-tach Management
- Recognize VF: Identifying ventricular fibrillation
- Clear before analyze and shock: Clearing any impediments before analyzing for shock delivery
- Immediately resume CPR after shocks: Restarting CPR immediately after shocks
- Appropriate airway management: Correct airway management techniques
- Appropriate cycle of drug – rhythm check/shock-CPR: Procedures for drug administration and rhythm checks followed by shock and CPR cycles
- Administer appropriate drug(s) and doses: Correct medications in appropriate dosages prescribed for each case
Asystole Management
