The document outlines the Advanced Resuscitation Techniques (ART) model for improving resuscitation outcomes. It describes seven commandments of cardiac arrest care, including high-quality chest compressions, use of pressors, ventilation techniques, and a focus on prevention. Sample patient cases and data on outcomes with the ART model in San Diego show increased survival rates from cardiac arrest.
Advanced cardiac life support or advanced cardiovascular life support (ACLS) refers to a set of clinical interventions for the urgent treatment of cardiac arrest, stroke and other life-threatening medical emergencies, as well as the knowledge and skills to deploy those interventions.
Basic Life Support, or BLS, generally refers to the type of care that first-responders, healthcare providers and public safety professionals provide to anyone who is experiencing cardiac arrest, respiratory distress or an obstructed airway.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

Editor's Notes
This animal model demonstrates why current CPR protocols are inadequate. This represents “perfect” CPR by current standards – machine-driven CPR from the moment the switch is flipped with perfect rate and depth and an optimal compression:ventilation ratio of 15:2. It is worth noting that the pauses for ventilation here are much shorter than in “real life” CPR, whether by laypersons or professionals, which only magnifies the problems seen here. Graphed in the background are aortic and RA pressures – the two components of CPP. Observe that it takes the entire cycle of chest compressions before the threshold for CPP is reached (represented by the horizontal line). Once this value is obtained, there are only a few compressions left before a pause for ventilation. The decline in aortic pressure is even faster than the gradual rise. This would suggest that standard “optimal” CPR will never adequately prime the heart.

These data are from the SD Trauma Registry and suggest an optimal arrival pCO2 range, with both hyper- and hypoventilation leading to poor outcomes. The adjusted odds ratios take into account the following: age, gender, mechanism, Head AIS, ISS, GCS, hypotension, and base deficit.

This demonstrates the importance of recoil, with good CPR on the top (although its worth pointing out that the ventilation rate is too fast) as evidenced by a negative intrathoracic pressure with each cycle, and bad CPR on the bottom with continuous positive intrathoracic pressure due to incomplete recoil.

These animal data suggest that part of the detrimental effect of overventilation may be immunologic and that this effect is most profound within the first 2 hours of injury.

These VF tracings demonstrate the priming effect from an electrophysiological perspective. As pointed out with the 3-phase model schematic, the morphology of VF changes as time passed. The VF at 1 min is well within the electrical phase, with greater amplitude and median frequency. After 8 min, the morphology is very different; a shock at this point would likely be unsuccessful in producing ROSC. However, after only 90 sec of chest compressions, the morphology looks similar to the “fresh” VF on the left. It is worth pointing out that the experimental model for producing PEA is to induce VF, wait 8 min, and shock without antecedent chest compressions – exactly what many EMS systems would currently advocate. This issue will resurface when we discuss the control group for the CPR timing study.
