Lesson 1Session 2: Basic life support review, high-quality CPR metrics, and monitoring (teaching methods and adaptations)This covers how to teach and check top-quality basic life support in ACLS, including push measures, breath goals, feedback tools, and changes for different students and clinic spots using mixed teaching ways suited to Gambia.
Go over current adult BLS and AED guidesTeach push depth, speed, and bounce goalsUse CPR feedback tools and dummy dataChange BLS teaching for varied student groupsMix BLS into ACLS case-based storiesLesson 2Session 1: Introduction, expectations, pre-test knowledge assessment, and role allocationThis sets goals and setup for Session 1, including showing instructor hopefuls around, making expectations clear, going over course stuff, and using before-course checks to guide personal learning plans for all.
Go over course timetable and instructor pathMake clear instructor roles and pro waysExplain performance and behavior hopesRun and review before-course knowledge testFind student needs and help plansLesson 3Session 8: Post–cardiac arrest care and targeted temperature management overviewThis covers teaching care after heart stop, including blood flow fixing, breath goals, brain checks, and aimed temperature handling, stressing mixing these ideas into advanced stories for real-world use.
Go over goals for after-heart-stop steadyingTeach blood pressure and flow handlingTalk about oxygen and breath goalsIntroduce brain check and future tellingExplain aimed temperature handling basicsLesson 4Session 10: Final summative assessment (skills stations, written test) and certification logisticsThis outlines how to run final skill and written checks, use scoring tools, make sure it's fair and steady, share results, and handle certificate records and course finish workings smoothly.
Set up ACLS instructor skill test spotsRun and score written examsUse steady check listsShare results and give short feedbackFinish certificate records and course reportsLesson 5Session 7: Megacode structure and flow: leader tasks, team tasks, and time-critical interventionsThis describes how to set up and run big code parts, including story design, timing, leader and group tasks, mixing rule paths, and tricks for live coaching and after-story reviews in training.
Design big code stories with clear goalsOrder check, fixes, and re-check stepsGive and switch team leader and member rolesStress time-urgent shock and drug usesUse planned reviews after each big codeLesson 6Session 9: Consolidation simulations, formative feedback sessions, and remediation plansThis focuses on making mix simulations that join course stuff, giving forming feedback, finding performance weak spots, and planning extra help tricks to back struggling instructor hopefuls effectively.
Plan mixed multi-part ACLS storiesUse forming check tools in simulationsGive exact, action-focused feedbackFind usual performance weak spots and reasonsMake personal extra help action plansLesson 7Session 3: Recognition and immediate management of arrhythmias and rhythm interpretation practiceThis focuses on teaching spotting and first handling of slow hearts, fast hearts, and stop rhythms, stressing rhythm reading practice, rule paths, and teaching tricks for aimed practice and feedback in sessions.
Teach steady ECG rhythm check stepsTell shockable and non-shockable rhythms apartLink rhythms to ACLS fix rule pathsDesign rhythm line practice and drillsCoach students with aimed rhythm feedbackLesson 8Session 4: Airway management, ventilation strategies, and advanced airway placement principlesThis details how to teach airway checks, bag-mask breaths, and advanced airway choices, including signs, tool picks, placement checks, and safe mixing into ACLS stories and skill spots for practical use.
Go over airway check and hard case signsTeach good bag-mask hold and two-person trickCompare above-glottis and endotracheal airwaysShow check of tube and tool placementMix airway skills into big code storiesLesson 9Session 6: Team roles, leadership, closed-loop communication, and CRM techniquesThis handles teaching group ways, leading, and talking in revival, including role clearness, closed-loop talk, CRM basics, and planned reviews of group actions in simulations for better teamwork.
Define group roles in ACLS revivalTeach good code group leading actionsPractice closed-loop talk tricksUse CRM basics in high-stress happeningsReview group work with action listsLesson 10Session 5: Pharmacology in ACLS: indications, dosing, timing, and safe administrationThis explains how to teach ACLS drugs, including signs, doses, timing, paths, and safety checks for main drugs, while using case-based ways, drug charts, and error-stop tricks in simulations.
Go over main ACLS drugs and signsTeach weight-based and fixed dose basicsStress timing and order with rule pathsPractice drug prep and labelingHandle drug safety and error stops
