Life Support

Healthcare and Medical

Life support refers to medical equipment and techniques used to sustain vital bodily functions when a patient cannot do so independently, including mechanical ventilators, dialysis machines, feeding tubes, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. It is a critical area of expertise for healthcare professionals such as ICU nurses, respiratory therapists, and emergency physicians, and also raises significant ethical and legal questions around end-of-life care and patient autonomy. Certifications like Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) train medical personnel in these techniques.
