Mastering the Art and Science of Resuscitation

Cutting Edge Resuscitation for the Real World

Welcome to REVIVE, the ultimate resuscitation conference!

Designed to redefine how we treat cardiac arrest and shock, REVIVE is hosted by the Center for Resuscitation Science at Penn Medicine. This high-impact, hybrid event blends fast-paced, evidence-based talks with immersive, hands-on training led by world-renowned experts.

REVIVE 2026 brought together the best minds in resuscitation for a packed day of high-yield learning, hands-on training, and real-world clinical insight. From cutting-edge technology to practical bedside strategies, the impact was immediate and the momentum is building. And this is only the beginning. REVIVE 2027 will go even bigger.

Join us and be part of the movement shaping the future of resuscitation.

  • "I really appreciated how you incorporated so much hands on education to complement the didactic portions.  And all the topics were so relevant to what we are seeing in practice and in the current literature and guidelines coming out.  I loved how each of the faculty gave recognition to the AHA but also challenged us to think beyond the guidelines.  The whole thing was stellar!"

    —Sarah Lorenzini

  • "First time for me in years that I was so engaged and learning at a meeting""

REVIVE Morning

Sessions

Better than a triple shot of espresso (or the first round of epi) - our morning sessions launch your day with rapid-fire, high-impact lectures from the top names in resuscitation. In under 18 minutes, each expert will deliver the essentials of care and real-world strategies for success in cardiac arrest and post-arrest care. Dynamic, moderated discussions follow, turning insights into interactive dialogue that will prime you for an afternoon of hands-on, transformative learning.

  • CARDIAC ARREST ESSENTIALS

    When every second counts, a rock-solid foundation in cardiac arrest management is non-negotiable.

    This high-yield, fast-paced session covers the core principles, critical decision-making strategies, and must-know techniques that define excellence in resuscitation.

    Save lives with confidence.

  • Advances in Cardiac Arrest

    Resuscitation science is evolving! This session will bring you to the cutting edge.

    From next-level defibrillation techniques and ultrasound-guided resuscitation to emerging pharmacologic advances we explore cutting-edge innovations.

    Get up to speed on the latest breakthroughs that are rewriting the playbook.

  • Post-Cardiac Arrest Care

    Focussed on post-arrest strategies that improve survival and neurological outcomes.

    Post-arrest teams, TTM to hemodynamic stabilization, and neuroprognostication, we’ll cover the interventions to give patients the best chance at recovery.

    Achieving ROSC is just the beginning—the real challenge starts now.

  • Advanced Resuscitation

    For the most complex and high-risk cases, standard resuscitation isn’t enough - you need advanced strategies and precision-guided interventions.

    This deep dive covers ECMO, managing refractory VT/VF, massive PE and RV failure, and resuscitating in pregnancy.

    Master the toughest cases and push the limits of survival.

Afternoon Hands-On Sessions

  • Medical ultrasound machine with display showing a sonogram image.

    Resuscitative ultrasound

    Leverage ultrasound imaging to gain a window into the hemodynamics of the crashing patient. Learn how to use a rapid POCUS assessment to quickly clinch essential diagnoses from expert ultrasound instructors and live models.

  • Medical team in hospital emergency department, focused on resuscitation leader in foreground.

    Owning the Airway in Cardiac Arrest

    Use the full repertoire of airway devices and adjuncts to take full control of the resuscitative airway. From LMAs, endotracheal tubes, fiberoptic intubation, to mastery of the humble bag-valve mask, this will take your skills to the next level.

    Refractory tachyarrhthmias

    Beyond your standard defibrillations - learners will manage cases of refractory tachyarrhythmias, leaving with skills beyond standard ACLS. Master advanced defibrillation techniques and debrief the team after ROSC.

  • A hospital room with a patient lying in bed connected to medical equipment. Several healthcare professionals in scrubs are attending to the patient. Monitors and IV stands are visible. The room is brightly lit, with a large screen displaying "Post-Arrest Care."

    Post-Cardiac Arrest Care

    Review recent data and controversies in post-arrest care. Spend time with the experts discussing the state-of-the-art in TTM, post-arrest PCI, hemodynamic targets, and best practices in neuroprognostication.

  • Illustration of a medical professional performing CPR on a patient in a hospital setting.

    PITSTOP CREW RESUSCITATION

    Leading a good resuscitation is more than medicine. Using a human-factors centered approach, leverage the Pitstop Crew Resuscitation model to lead your team, ensure seamless vascular access, airway management, and flawless CPR.

  • Medical simulation room with neon lights and mannequins for resuscitation training, featuring medical professionals practicing CPR and using equipment.
