Why the study?
Continuous reviews of new cardiopulmonary resuscitation science are needed to update comprehensive treatment recommendations every 5 years.
This document provides the 2025 updated international consensus on science and treatment recommendations for cardiopulmonary resuscitation education, implementation, and team training.

Resuscitation programs should adopt updated training recommendations now; extends 2020 ILCOR consensus while identifying priority evidence gaps.
The International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation conducts continuous reviews of new, peer-reviewed, published cardiopulmonary resuscitation science and publishes more comprehensive reviews every 5 years. The Education, Implementation, and Teams chapter of the 2025 International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation Consensus on Science With Treatment Recommendations describes all published resuscitation evidence reviewed by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation’s Education, Implementation, and Teams Task Force science experts since 2020. This summary addresses the evidence in 4 subchapters: (1) training populations, (2) faculty development, (3) knowledge translation and implementation, and (4) instructional design. Members from the Education, Implementation, and Teams Task Force have assessed, discussed, and debated the quality of the evidence, based on Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation criteria, and their statements include consensus treatment recommendations. Insights into the deliberations of the task force are provided in the Justification and Evidence-to-Decision Framework Highlights sections. Priority knowledge gaps for further research are listed.

Greif et al. (2025) conducted a review in Cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation education and implementation was evaluated on Consensus treatment recommendations based on GRADE criteria. The 2025 ILCOR Consensus on Science With Treatment Recommendations provides updated evidence-based guidelines on CPR training populations, faculty development, and instructional design.
