Course Description

This 5-day intensive course provides healthcare professionals with the knowledge and practical skills needed to respond effectively to cardiac emergencies. Participants will learn advanced resuscitation techniques, rhythm recognition, airway management, pharmacology, and team-based approaches in life-threatening cardiovascular events. The program combines lectures, interactive discussions, and hands-on simulations to prepare participants for real-world ACLS scenarios.

Course Objectives

Upon the successful completion of this course, each participant will be able to:

  • Understand the principles and benefits of 5S and Visual Management.
  • Recognize and respond to cardiac arrest, arrhythmias, and other cardiovascular emergencies.
  • Apply ACLS algorithms for adults and special populations.
  • Perform effective CPR, airway management, and defibrillation.
  • Administer appropriate pharmacologic interventions during resuscitation.
  • Lead or participate in high-performance resuscitation teams and post-resuscitation care.

Who Should Attend?

This course is designed for physicians, nurses, paramedics, and healthcare providers involved in emergency, critical care, or cardiac patient management.

End of the Course

Assessment Methodology

All courses conducted by EdTech will begin with a Pre-evaluation and end with a Post-evaluation. The instructor will evaluate the knowledge and skills of the participants according to the feedback given by participants. This will help to recognize the benefits and the level of knowledge gained by participants through the course.

Training Methodology

Facilitated by a highly qualified specialist, who has extensive knowledge and experience; this program will be conducted using extensively interactive methods, encouraging participants to share their own experiences and apply the program material to real-life work situations in order to stimulate group discussions and improve the efficiency of the subject coverage.
