Core Tip
Core tip: As a result of 25 years of experience on the application of the “Lazarus Effect” in Acupuncture, a formalized protocol project is shown and submitted in order to integrate this maneuver into the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) sequence. The K-1 maneuver is neither intended to replace nor to interrupt the CPR international protocol, but to provide an alternative way of upgrading heart stoppage mortality when the ILCOR-CPR protocol has failed.
