The American Heart Association’s ACLS Prep: ECG & Pharmacology Bundle conveniently combines both the ACLS Prep: ECG and ACLS Prep: Pharmacology eLearning Courses into one convenient bundle for students who are preparing to take an AHA Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) Course.  ***NOTE: This is not the required pre-course work for an ACLS Provider Course or the Heartcode Part 1 for the skills session.  This is a prep for those who are not familiar with ECGs and Pharmacology.***

Course Learning Objectives:
After completing this course, students should be able to:

  • List essential ACLS drugs and their usage
  • Identify ACLS medication doses and routes of administration during cardiovascular emergencies.
  • Apply basic pharmacology to the ACLS algorithms
  • Explain heart anatomy and basic electrophysiology
  • Explain normal ECG measurements
  • Recognize and understand basic arrhythmias

This course is an online review of basic ECG and pharmacology information required to succeed in an ACLS Provider course. It does not replace the required Precourse Work for attending an ACLS Provider class; it is supplemental material to assist with preparations for those not familiar with the ACLS concepts.
