* Initiate 5 cycles of high quality (30:2) one-rescuer or (15:2) two-rescuer CPR for approximately 2 minutes to allow blood to circulate and continue throughout resuscitation, minimizing interruptions.
*Maintain rate of between 100-120 compressions per minute.
*Maintain compression depth of at least 1/3 of the depth of the chest.
*Allow for complete chest recoil between compressions.
*Minimize interruptions
*Assist ventilations with [[Medical Gases|OXYGEN]] @ 100% via BVM. DO NOT HYPERVENTILATE
* INTUBATE and establish peripheral IV or IO line as able.
* DEFIBRILLATION @ 2 J/kg.
**Proceed to next step only if V-Fib / Pulseless V-Tach persists.
**If rhythm converts, follow appropriate Practice Parameters.

* Repeat [[Adrenergics|EPINEPHRINE]] 1:10,000 (0.1mg/ml) 0.01 mg / kg every 3 - 5 minutes of continued arrest.

* DEFIBRILLATION @ 4 J/kg. Continue CPR immediately.
* If rhythm converts, follow appropriate Practice Parameters.

* If hypovolemia suspected, fluid bolus 20 ml / kg.
* [[Antiarrhythmics|AMIODARONE]] 5 mg/kg, IVP or IO - refer to Broselow Tape for patient specific dose.

* [[Antiarrhythmics|LIDOCAINE]] 1.0 mg/kg IV / IO.

* DEFIBRILLATION @ 6 J/kg. Continue CPR immediately.

* After 10 minutes, [[Antiarrhythmics|LIDOCAINE]] 1.0 mg/kg IV / IO.
* DEFIBRILLATION @ 8 J/kg. Continue CPR immediately.
* If rhythm converts, follow appropriate Practice Parameter
