	Advanced Life Support - The Merck Veterinary Manual
		In advanced life support, an ECG is obtained to characterize arrhythmias, followed by drug administration or defibrillation as indicated.
		If the basic life support is unsuccessful (determined by failure of spontaneous respiration or inability to generate detectable forward blood flow) after 5-10 min, open-chest cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR, see Open-chest Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) is indicated.
		There are instances when open-chest CPR is indicated during initial basic life support, such as severe trauma with blood loss or in a large dog in which external compressions are unlikely to generate an adequate forward blood flow.

	Advanced Life Support - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is practiced by in-hospital cardiac arrest teams, which generally consist of junior doctors from various specialties (anesthetics, general or internal medicine).
		ALS presumes that basic life support (bag-mask administration of oxygen and chest compressions) are administered.
		The main algorithm of ALS, which is invoked when actual cardiac arrest has been established, relies on the monitoring of the electrical activity of the heart on a cardiac monitor.

		This type of life support system -- called "bioregenerative" -- would be fully self-contained, creating an ecologically sound microcosm where each element supports and is supported by each of the others.
		And just in case self-contained bubbles of life outside Earth's atmosphere aren't "sci-fi" enough for you, NASA researchers are also considering how biotechnology and nanotechnology could be used to improve such "bubbles" in mind-boggling ways.
		For example, foreseeable advances in biotech and nanotech could make it possible to alter plants' genes so that their cells produce little molecular sensors, transmitters, and receivers.
