I agree
@heli_med_james
, the principles are sound. What about in the community when COVID-19 has not been diagnosed. Are you aware of any guidelines for clinicians in this context? Do we use this PPE/varied treatment for all cardiac arrests?

We are currently treating all cardiac arrests as potential COVID pt’s. As the prevalance increases, incidental contamination/exposure will increase regardless of Hx.
Prehospital guidelines (for the U.K.) should be punished tomorrow. Standby...
