ABSTRACT
In November 2018,the American Heart Association(AHA) updated Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care. The new guideline provided the evidence review and treatment recommendation for antiarrhythmic drug therapy in pediatric shock-refractory ventricular fibrillation/pulseless ventricular tachycardia cardiac arrest. The update was carried out by the Pediatrics Working Group of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation(ILCOR)for ongoing clinical evidence review. The update continues with the view of 2015's edition that either lidocaine or amiodarone may be used to treat pediatric patients with shock-refractory ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia. The flow chart of cardiac arrest for pediatric advanced life support was slightly adjusted.
