There is a lot that has
been going around about what the paramedics should know and how they can
improve their services, catering to which, advanced cardiac life support has
been introduced. Considering the fact that matters of the heart cannot be taken
lightly, emergencies arising out the same also has to be dealt with utmost
care. This care has to be extended from the very moment the condition occurs
and not when the patient is admitted to the hospital, simply because of the
fact that by then, the patient may give in to the severity of the issue and
collapse to an irrecoverable phase. Those involved in offering pre hospital
care are thus, needed to be adept at ensuring that the patient who has suffered
cardiac condition remains at a more or less stable condition from where he /
she can be treated back to health.
To be adept at offering such services and
considering the significance of the task, the concerned professionals are
required to take ACLS course and get certified at
the same before going ahead with their profession. It is crucial to note that
these classes and certification is meant only for those who are directly or,
indirectly related with the health care industry and none others, which is very
unlike the basic life support certification which can be taken by anyone from
any line of profession whatsoever. At the same time, this course requires the
holders to take ACLS recertification classes after certain intervals of time, which
is a rule introduced to ensure that all professionals are kept in track with
the latest developments happening in the field of preliminary attention to
cardiac emergencies.
