Cardiac Arrest!

Based on the 2015 American Heart Association® ACLS Guidelines, Cardiac Arrest! is the ultimate ACLS simulator software. Exciting live-action video teaches actions for tough clinical problems like hypocalcemia, hyperkalemia, hypothermia, Kawasaki disease, and more. Cardiac Arrest! sharpens Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) skills in an exciting and realistic ER simulation.

Cardiac Arrest! casts you in the role of emergency physician. The patient's history is presented, and the resuscitation efforts begin. You read the ECG on the computer screen, interpret the vital signs and laboratory data. Give treatment orders using a simple point and click interface, or type in plain English. Cardiac Arrest! provides drug information, an on-line text book and algorithm flowcharts for the ultimate learning environment.

Features 45 patients, 30 adult and 15 pediatric. Perfect for ACLS re-certification preparation or just keeping your skills sharp. Combine with Code Team! for the ultimate ACLS training.

The program keeps track of the patients you have completed. Each patient simulation is followed by a short quiz and you may redo a case if the outcome was unsatisfactory. When redoing a case, the variables of the patient will change so that you never have the same scenario twice. You can print a "report card" from the file menu that shows which patients you have completed and your resuscitation scores.

You can make Cardiac Arrest! meet your own learning needs. For example, if you're trying to learn drug treatment strategies, you can have your treatment team automatically perform CPR and ventilations when needed, so you can concentrate on the treatment algorithms.

When you believe the patient is stabilized enough for ICU admission, click the "Admit" button. The patient's private physician will drop by to tell you about the final outcome. You're expected to stabilize shock and treat major electrolyte or fluid deficits before the ICU admission.
