Program Description

This symposium offers Inova clinicians, providers, nurses, EMS professionals, and trainees a dynamic platform to engage with the latest advancements in resuscitation medicine. It adapts national, cutting‑edge resuscitation science to Inova‑specific protocols, clinical teams, and patient populations, ensuring relevance to local practice. Grounded in the multidisciplinary spirit of the national ReSS, the event fosters collaboration across critical care, emergency cardiovascular care, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation disciplines. It provides residents, fellows, nurses, APPs, and faculty with a convenient, high‑impact educational environment—without the need for travel.

Key focus areas include:

  • State‑of‑the‑art resuscitation guidelines and science updates
  • Cardiac arrest pathways and systems of care
  • Advances in CPR technology and data‑driven performance improvement
  • Post‑resuscitation neuroprotection.
