Are you nervous about attempting your first ACLS (Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support) class? This tutorial is designed to give you a "head-start" before your class.
Learn to identify ventricular fibrillation, pulseless VT, asystole, and PEA; apply the 1 shock protocol, verify tube placement with CO2, monitor capnography for CPR quality, and understand rapid response teams.
Explore post cardiac arrest care, focusing on megacode algorithms, post arrest vital signs, imaging, airway tube placement, and targeted temperature management to 32–36°C for 24 hours, with comatose, intubated patients.
Learn how intraosseous access provides emergency vascular access for delivering cardiac arrest medications and fluids when peripheral IV routes fail, using short-term IO until other access is possible.
Learn to cope with death in medical settings by delivering news with empathy, private conversations, clear language, and focus on supporting the family.
This online course is designed to help students prepare for their initial attempt to receive their ACLS certification. This will also be a great tool for those students who want to "Brush-up" on their skills before taking an ACLS re-certification class. In this easy to follow course, our hope is to allow our students to feel comfortable when attempting their first ACLS class. This course is not available for CMEs/CEUs at this time.
