Tick_stroke New guidance available for carers of children and young people with a ReSPECT plan transitioning care to adult services

The pathophysiology of children means that in illness they are generally at higher risk of a primary respiratory arrest than adults. Therefore, for some patients it may be very appropriate to intervene with respiratory-based resuscitation without proceeding to cardiac compressions if the heart eventually stops – hence a recommendation for ‘modified CPR’ that may emphasise respiratory-focused interventions.
