EMTP 1062 - Emergency Cardiac Care Lecture EMTP 1062 - Emergency Cardiac Care Lecture Description Students will be taught advanced cardiac care including advanced cardiac life support according to the American Heart Association, emergency cardiac drug identification and administration. Learn and practice key skills in BLS and ACLS Manage first ten minutes of sudden, witnessed ventricular fibrillation. Know and perform the primary ABCD survey Know and perform a secondary ABCD survey Know and perform the ACLS algorithms as stated in the 10 core cases. Know and apply the “Periarrest” Algorithms Know and apply how to run the code - directing others during a resuscitation attempt Airway maintenance: Provide supplemental oxygen, open airway, maintain the open airway, recognize airway obstruction, ventilate patient, provide advanced ventilation, provide definitive airway control, provide primary and secondary confirmation of tracheal tube placement. Provide transcutaneous pacing operate and AED, and a conventional monitor/defibrillatorto safely and effectively deliver shocks to Ventricular fibrillation and other rhythms. Effectively perform synchronized electrical cardioversion for unstable V-Tach with a conventional monitor/defibrillator. Safely and effectively use stand-alone transcutaneous pacemakers and the pacing modein conventional defibrillators to pace a patient. Identify the characteristics of normal sinus rhythm. When shown and ECG tracing, identify the rhythm, site of ori
