Overview

Two hours of facilitated megacode practice for four to six learners on ALS-capable manikins with a simulated monitor and defibrillator and CPR feedback. Everyone takes turns as team leader, with a short debrief after each case. ACLS groups run cardiac arrest, bradycardia, tachycardia and post-arrest cases. PALS groups run pediatric cardiac, respiratory and shock cases. Built for providers heading into ACLS or PALS, blended learners before their hands-on skills session, and new grads. This is not an AHA course. It does not replace the AHA skills session or issue an AHA course completion card.

What You Will Practice

  • Lead a resuscitation team through current ACLS or PALS algorithms on a manikin
  • Recognize rhythms on a simulated monitor and choose the next intervention
  • Assign roles and use closed-loop communication under time pressure
  • Debrief each case and fix sequencing errors before graded testing

Who It Is For

Providers taking ACLS or PALS (initial or renewal), blended learners before their skills session, new-grad RNs and paramedic students.

Prerequisites

  • Current BLS
  • Enrolled in or holding ACLS or PALS
  • Bring your ACLS or PALS reference cards
