Advanced Cardiac Life Support (Renewal)

Description

Healthcare providers will enhance their skills in the treatment of the adult victim of a cardiac arrest or other cardiopulmonary emergencies. ACLS emphasizes the importance of basic life support CPR to patient survival; the integration of effective basic life support with advanced cardiovascular life support interventions; and the importance of effective team interaction and communication during resuscitation.

Students engage in simulted clinical scenearios that encourage active, hands on participation through learning stations where students will practice essential skills individually, as part of a team, and as team leader. Realistic simulations reinforce the following key concepts: profiecenty in basic life support care; recognizing and intiating early management of peri-arrest conditions; managing cardiac arrest; identifying and treating ischemic chest pain and acute coronary syndromes; recognizing other life-threatening clinical situations (such as stroke) and providing initial care; ACLS algorithms; and effective resuscitation team dynamics.

For emergency, intensive care, or critical care healthcare providers such as physicians, nurses, paramedics, reparatory therapists and other professionals who may need to respond to a cardiovascular emergency.
