HOW DO WE BEST TREAT ANIMALS IN CARDIOPULMONARY ARREST?
Evidence-based veterinary CPR guidelines published by the RECOVER Initiative in 2012 aimed at maximizing patient survival after cardiopulmonary arrest led to the official veterinary CPR certification process approved by the American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care. This course will teach the concepts and techniques of RECOVER Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Life Support (ALS).
The certification process consists of an online course followed by on-site training at Unisvet XVII National Conference (3-4 February 2023, Allianz MiCo – MILANO).
Because of this, participants must have successfully completed the RECOVER online BLS and ALS courses available at recoverinitiative.org. These courses are included in the registration fee but need to be completed prior to the in-person training at the conference. After the subscription process trought the Unisvet website, you will receive from Recover the link to access to the online lessons.
Successful completion of this course grants certification as a RECOVER BLS and ALS Rescuer.
Human medical professionals certify in human CPR.
Veterinary medical professionals should certify themselves in veterinary CPR!

CPR course that teaches the essential concepts needed to maximize outcomes in patients with cardiopulmonary arrest. When a cardiopulmonary arrest occurs in your practice, having a well-trained team ready to provide high-quality CPR may be the difference between life and death for your patient.
This course teaches the evidence-based Basic Life Support (BLS) guidelines developed by the Reassessment Campaign on Veterinary Resuscitation (RECOVER) Initiative. It is the only BLS course endorsed by the Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care Society (VECCS), and is the only course that provides official certification in veterinary CPR through the American College of Veterinary Emergency Critical Care (ACVECC).
Duration: 3.5 hours
Total Modules: 3
RACE C.E. Credits: 3.5
NY Credits: 3.5
Topics include use and interpretation of important monitoring equipment, how to diagnose the ECG arrest rhythm, and drug therapies and other advanced interventions that can improve the likelihood of saving a life.
After completing both courses, you’ll have an understanding of the entire CPR algorithm.
These comprehensive and highly engaging courses include videos, assignments, and quizzes covering the latest in CPR techniques.
These courses are peer-reviewed and offer official certificates of completion by the American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care (ACVECC). They are endorsed by the Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care Society (VECCS), and teach the most current, evidence-based guidelines developed by the Reassessment Campaign on Veterinary Resuscitation (RECOVER) initiative, making them the gold standard in veterinary CPR training.

WHAT IS THE RECOVER INITIATIVE?
Reassessment Campaign on Veterinary Resuscitation (RECOVER)
The initiative was spearheaded by co-chairs Dr. Daniel Fletcher and Dr. Manuel Boller with the following goals:
- To facilitate an evidence review of the current literature on veterinary cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
- To derive a draft set of clinical guidelines for veterinary CPR based on the evidence review
- To collate and incorporate feedback from the veterinary community at large and develop a set of consensus CPR guidelines
- To widely disseminate these consensus, evidence-based veterinary CPR guidelines
Through the efforts of over 100 veterinary specialists, an evidence-based veterinary CPR guideline was created and made available. The RECOVER initiative directs its efforts at regularly updating the clinical guideline, providing effective training and certification in a standardized method of performing veterinary CPR, and guiding research in the area of veterinary resuscitation.
The RECOVER initiative now functions through three main committees; 1) Guideline, 2) Education, and 3) Research.
The RECOVER Initiative is a non-profit, volunteer-based program within ACVECC and VECCS dedicated to conducting high-quality education, evidence search, and guideline creation.
