Course Description:
The American Heart Association’s AHA Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support course in Hyderabad is totally redesigned for healthcare providers who either direct or participate in the resuscitation of a patient, whether in or out of hospital. Through the ACLS course, 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.
ACLS is based on simulated clinical scenarios that encourage active, hands-on participation through learning stations where students will practice essential skills individually, as part of a team, and as team leaders. Realistic simulations reinforce the following keys concepts: proficiency in basic life support care; recognizing and initiating early management of Pre-Arrest conditions; managing cardiac arrest; identifying and treating ischemic chest pain and cute coronary syndromes; recognizing other life-threating clinical situations(such as stroke(such as stroke) and providing initial care; ACLS algorithms; and effective resuscitation team dynamics.
Course Content & Modules:
▶ Defibrillation.
▶ Airway Management.
▶ Rhythm Recognition.
▶ IV access.
▶ Use of medications.
▶ Cardioversion.
▶ Transcutaneous pacing
▶ 1- rescuer, CPR, AED.
▶ Effective resuscitation team dynamics.
▶ Features & Benefits:

Realistic simulations reinforce the following key concepts:
▶ Proficiency in basic life support care
▶ Recognizing and initiating early management of the peri-arrest condition
▶ 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
▶ Effective resuscitation team dynamics.
