Collaboration of nursing and medicine has been, and continues to be, dynamic and productive in the ongoing evolution of the NRP. The NRP is the established standard of resuscitation in the United States and is directly or indirectly reflected in the programs of many countries. A 5-year cycle for production of new NRP editions that now spread across 3 decades has involved collaborative multidisciplinary effort. Nursing, in addition to being very involved in the production of the NRP manual and teaching material, has always been a major leader and provider of NRP teaching and management at the regional and local level. This collaboration serves as
a model for HBB as it explores implementation models and opportunities.
