T his year’s American Heart Association (AHA)’s Resuscitation Science Symposium (ReSS), held November 9 to 11, 2018, in Chicago, Illinois, brought together thoughtprovoking research from basic science to clinical trials and frontline work in the public health space. Across 16 sessions, >50 oral presentations were given on topics ranging from a first-person narrative from a patient’s perspective of surviving cardiac arrest to the transcriptional profiling of the neuroprotective mechanisms of inhaled nitric oxide in pediatric arrest. A total of 275 posters and 27 oral presentations on 40 topics were presented. Nine awards, including the inaugural winners of the Resuscitation Champion Award, were given.
