ILCOR Pediatric Life Support 2025: What is New and Why it Matters?
Review in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The 2025 International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) Pediatric Life Support (PLS) update introduces ten significant changes aimed at improving the timeliness, quality, and physiologic precision of pediatric resuscitation. Based on the review of 39 PICOST questions, the update highlights early cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for bradycardia with poor perfusion, renewed emphasis on pediatric early warning systems (PEWS) for early deterioration detection, and reaffirmation of bag-mask ventilation as the preferred initial airway technique. Both ABC and CAB sequences are now acceptable for initiating CPR. Defibrillation guidance continues to recommend an initial 2-4 J/kg/dose and now favours anteroposterior pad placement. The traditional 10-second pulse check rule has been withdrawn in favour of immediate CPR when signs of life are uncertain. Epinephrine timing has become rhythm-specific, supporting early use in non-shockable rhythms and delayed administration after the second shock for shockable rhythms. New physiologic targets-including diastolic blood pressure thresholds and ETCO
