The new standards of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), being the result of the World Health Organisation and the European Resuscitation Council studies, should be introduced to the hospital practice everywhere. The aim of this study is to create the project of organisation of the effective CPR system in the big, multidisciplinary hospital--Central Teaching Hospital of the Silesian University of Medicine in Katowice. We propose to establish the interdisciplinary Hospital Resuscitation Council (HRC) consisted of competent representatives of doctors and nurses from all departments with the head of department of anaesthesiology and intensive therapy as a leader of this group. The HRC will be responsible for introducing the effective teaching program of cardiac arrest assessment and basic life support for the whole hospital staff including physicians, nurses, nursing students and lay people. Clear rules of CPR-Alarm, call-system and "do not resuscitate" patients should be established and introduced. There is a need of elaboration of the uniform documentation system and continuous analysis of the effects of CPR activity in the hospital. Anticipated costs of this project are high but the safety of our patients and quality of medical service in the hospital will improve significantly.
