PALS Provider-Original (Full Day)
- 1 and 2 rescuer child/infant CPR and AED use
- Management of respiratory emergencies
- Rhythm disturbances and electrical therapy
- Vascular access
- Resuscitation team concept
- Cardiac, respiratory, shock case discussions, and stimulations
- Systematic approach to pediatric assessment
The PALS 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 PALS Course covers extensive material in a short time, you will need to prepare for the course beforehand.
Be prepared to pass the Child CPR and AED Skills Testing Checklist and Infant CPR Skills Testing Checklist. You will not be taught how to do CPR or how to use an AED during the course. The resuscitation scenarios require that your BLS skills and knowledge are current. Review and understand all 2020 BLS guidelines, especially as they relate to pediatric patients.
Intended Audience: The course is designed for healthcare providers such as, but not limited to, physicians, nurses, paramedics, and respiratory therapists, who may respond to a pediatric cardiovascular respiratory emergency. Those who are renewing their PALS but desire additional instructor feedback may also benefit from this class as well.
This course is an educational program jointly sponsored by the American Heart Association (AHA)
