The ASAP cardiac arrest algorithm is the only protocol that incorporates the use of regional oximetry. 

 

Conclusions: Cerebral oximetry allows real-time, noninvasive cerebral oxygenation monitoring during 
cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Higher cerebral oxygenation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation is 
associated with return of spontaneous circulation and neurologically favorable survival to hospital 
discharge. 

The Science

 

Demonstrated effectiveness in the pre-hospital setting.

The ASAP Protocol curriculum serves as a substitute for specific American Heart Association (AHA) certifications, including CPR/AED for lay responders and Basic Life Support (BLS) for Healthcare Providers (HCP). Furthermore, the ASAP Pro certification is intended to enhance and support Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) courses.
