ACLS (Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support)

Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) is a set of medical protocols and interventions used to treat patients experiencing cardiac emergencies, such as heart attacks or severe arrhythmias. It builds on Basic Life Support (BLS) techniques, incorporating advanced procedures like medication administration, defibrillation, and airway management. ACLS is crucial for healthcare providers, enabling them to stabilize patients, restore normal heart function, and improve chances of survival and recovery. Trained professionals use ACLS in hospitals and emergency settings to deliver efficient, coordinated care during critical situations involving the heart.
