It covers identification and treatment of patients with medical conditions who are at risk for cardiac arrest. Primary and secondary assessment survey and actions needed, algorithms for treatment of emergency situations, and effective resuscitation team dynamics. Arrhythmia recognition is reviewed but it is expected that the student will have a working knowledge of EKG rhythms.

A passing score on the final written exam and demonstration of the course material via skills checks are required to obtain the AHA Ecard.
