4 Hour ACLS Renewal - Accelerated Course 

This renewal course is not for the inexperienced! No learning stations, but science overview. Then on to testing which includes CPR/AED, megacode, airway, and written evaluation.

The American Heart Association Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support course is totally redesigned to incorporate new science evidence from the 2020 Guidelines and a new teaching methodology. Through the ACLS course, 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.

How to Get Ready

The ACLS Provider Course is designed to teach you the lifesaving skills required to be both a team member and a team leader in either an in-hospital or an out-of-hospital setting. Because the ACLS Provider Course covers extensive material in a short time, you will need to prepare for the course beforehand.

• Purchase a current (2020) AHA ACLS Manual (20-1106), or also available is the (2020) AHA ACLS eBook (20-3100), and the optional AHA 2020 ECC Handbook (20-1100), if you do not already have one. To purchase, go to:

http://www.worldpoint.com, or call at 1(888)322 - 8350

• Review, and complete Pre-Course Self- Assessment online:

                    1. Visit elearning.heart.org/courses.

                    2. Find the course name: ACLS Precourse Self-Assessment

                    3. Once you find your course, select Launch Course to begin.

Note: If you haven't already logged in, the system will ask you to do so. If you haven't visited the site before, you'll be prompted to set up an account.

Print out the completed test immediately after you complete it, if you close down the program before printing out your test, the work you have completed will be erased

Note: You will not be taught how to read or interpret ECGs in the course, nor will you be taught details about ACLS pharmacology.

• Complete the pre-course preparation checklist that came with your ACLS Provider Manual. Bring the checklist with you to the course.

• Review and understand the information in your ACLS Provider Manual. Pay particular attention to the 10 cases in Part 5.

• The resuscitation scenarios require that your BLS skills and knowledge are current. You will be tested on 1-rescuer adult CPR and AED skills at the beginning of the ACLS Provider Course. You must know this in advance, since you will not be taught how to do CPR or how to use an AED.

Please note: Fee does not include the cost of the manual.
