If the patient achieves , the focus shifts to stabilization. This includes targeted temperature management, blood pressure support, and immediate cardiac catheterization if a myocardial infarction is suspected. According to the American Heart Association (AHA) , these standardized protocols are updated regularly (most recently in 2025) to incorporate the latest evidence-based science.

Essential medications include Epinephrine (to increase coronary perfusion) and anti-arrhythmics like Amiodarone or Lidocaine for persistent VF/pVT. The ACLS Survey (A-B-C-D)

Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) is a set of clinical algorithms for the urgent treatment of cardiac arrest, stroke, and other life-threatening cardiovascular emergencies. It expands upon Basic Life Support (BLS) by incorporating advanced medical procedures, pharmacological interventions, and high-performance team dynamics to improve survival rates. Core Pillars of ACLS
