This is an exciting opportunity to participate in the international evaluation of resuscitation and first aid science. The International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) was formed in 1992 to create a forum for collaboration among principal resuscitation councils worldwide. ILCOR's vision is to save more lives globally through resuscitation. ILCOR's mission is promoting, disseminating and advocating for the international implementation of evidence informed resuscitation and first aid, using transparent evaluation and consensus summary of scientific data.
The Task Force is a central part of ILCOR’s continuous process for evidence evaluation. Working in partnership with the Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC), the Task Force brings together clinical and scientific experts from around the world to consider scientific evidence and produce consensus on science and treatment recommendations.
