ADVANCED CARDIOVASCULAR LIFE SUPPORT (ACLS)
Programme Overview
ACLS is an advanced extension of Basic Life Support (BLS) that focuses on comprehensive management of cardiac emergencies. It involves expert heart rhythm interpretation using a manual defibrillator, advanced airway management, IV access, and the administration of life-saving medications. The ACLS team also identifies and treats the underlying cause of cardiac arrest while ensuring continuous, high-quality chest compressions with minimal interruption—because every second matters in saving lives.
Who Should Attend
- Healthcare professionals involved in the management of cardiac emergencies and critically ill patients.
- Doctors, nurses and paramedics working in emergency departments, intensive care units or acute care settings.
- Clinical staff seeking to enhance their knowledge and skills in advanced cardiovascular life support, including resuscitation, airway management and team-based response.
- Allied health professionals and trainees who are part of rapid response or resuscitation teams, and are responsible for delivering timely and effective life-saving interventions.
