This review aims to determine the changes made in the cardiopulmo-nary resuscitation (CPR) guidelines from 2000 to the present. The study was mainly undertaken by using International Guidelines from Ameri-can Heart Association. The main change of CPR was chest compres-sion skill. The guidelines have improved high-quality CPR through the change of chest compression skill. The latest adult CPR guidelines are as follows: (a) push chest quickly (100–120/min), (b) compress appropri-ately (5–6 cm), (c) relax chest fully (complete chest recoil), (d) avoid in-terruption of compression, and (e) avoid hyperventilation. The under-standing of the latest CPR skills will be helpful in improving survival rate from sudden cardiac death.
