Lesson 1Session 2: Basic life support review, high-quality CPR metrics, and monitoring (teaching methods and adaptations)This covers teaching and checking top-quality BLS in ACLS, including push measures, breath goals, feedback tools, and changes for different students and work places using various teaching tricks.
Review current adult BLS and AED guidesTeach push depth, speed, and bounce goalsUse CPR feedback tools and dummy dataChange BLS teaching for varied student groupsBlend BLS into ACLS case-based storiesLesson 2Session 1: Introduction, expectations, pre-test knowledge assessment, and role allocationThis sets goals and layout for Session 1, including guiding instructor hopefuls, making expectations clear, going over course stuff, and using before-course checks to shape personal learning plans.
Review course timetable and instructor pathMake clear instructor roles and professional waysExplain performance and behaviour hopesRun and review before-course knowledge testSpot student needs and support plansLesson 3Session 8: Post–cardiac arrest care and targeted temperature management overviewThis covers teaching after-heart stop care, including blood flow fixing, breath goals, brain watching, and aimed temperature handling, stressing blending these ideas into advanced stories.
Review goals for after-heart stop steadyingTeach blood pressure and flow handlingDiscuss 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 running final skills and written checks, using score tools, making sure fairness and steadiness, sharing results, and handling certificate records and course finish logistics.
Set up ACLS instructor skills testing spotsRun and score written examsUse standard 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 setting up and running big code parts, including story design, timing, leader and team jobs, blending guides, and plans for live coaching and after-story review.
Design big code stories with clear aimsOrder check, fixes, and re-check stepsAssign and switch team leader and member rolesStress time-urgent shock and drug actionsUse planned review after each big codeLesson 6Session 9: Consolidation simulations, formative feedback sessions, and remediation plansThis focuses on making blending simulations that mix course stuff, giving shaping feedback, spotting performance shortfalls, and planning extra help ways to aid struggling instructor hopefuls.
Plan mixed multi-system ACLS storiesUse shaping check tools in simulationsGive specific, action-focused feedbackSpot common performance shortfalls 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, guides, and teaching ways for aimed practice and feedback.
Teach step-by-step ECG rhythm check stepsTell shockable and non-shockable rhythms apartLink rhythms to ACLS fix guidesDesign rhythm strip practice and drillsCoach students using aimed rhythm feedbackLesson 8Session 4: Airway management, ventilation strategies, and advanced airway placement principlesThis details teaching airway check, bag-mask breathing, and advanced airway choices, including signs, tool picking, placement check, and safe blending into ACLS stories and skill spots.
Review airway check and hard case predictorsTeach good bag-mask seal and two-person wayCompare above-glottis and endotracheal airwaysShow check of tube and tool placementBlend airway skills into big code storiesLesson 9Session 6: Team roles, leadership, closed-loop communication, and CRM techniquesThis handles teaching team ways, leading, and talking in emergencies, including role clearness, closed-loop talking, CRM basics, and planned review of team actions in simulations.
Define team roles in ACLS emergenciesTeach good code team leading actionsPractice closed-loop talking waysApply CRM basics to high-stress eventsReview teamwork using action listsLesson 10Session 5: Pharmacology in ACLS: indications, dosing, timing, and safe administrationThis explains teaching ACLS drugs, including signs, doses, timing, paths, and safety checks for main drugs, while using case-based ways, drug charts, and error-stop plans in simulations.
Review core ACLS drugs and signsTeach weight-based and fixed dose basicsStress timing and order with guidesPractice drug prep and labellingHandle drug safety and error stop
