Each ACLS Megacode Scenario within the simulator will take you through situations that you will experience when you perform your ACLS Megacode Skills Station.
After you have completed the scenario, the ACLS simulator will grade your test, and you will receive instant feedback. This will help reinforce the ACLS Algorithm and improve your ability to respond in emergency situations. Go through each megacode scenario as many times as you need to achieve mastery of the ACLS Algorithms.
After you have completed these multiple-choice megacode scenarios, move on to the megacode series videos which will take you one step further in your mastery of the ACLS algorithms.
The ACLS megacode simulator is compliant with the 2020-2025 AHA ACLS guidelines.

Do you only check for pulse after two mins of CPR if an organised rhythm is present?
Jeff with admin. says
That is correct. Kind regards, Jeff
KIMPOY says
AS LONG AS YOU FINISH THE 4 CYCLES YOU HAVE TO CHECK FOR PULSE OR RYTHM
Riggy says
CPR is 5 cycles based on latest AHA protocol.
Riggy says
Based on AHA, you only check pulse if an organized ECG rhythm appears on the monitor. If there is no pulse then the rhythm is Pulseless Electrical Activity or PEA. If there is pulse. Go check the 5Hs’ and 5Ts’.

Excellent site. Do you plan to add the stroke algorithm? Or is it here tucked away?
Jeff with admin. says
There is some content regarding the stroke algorithm. It is found toward the bottom of this web page of practice tests.
I do plan on adding more info, but this topic is covered fairly lightly in the AHA ACLS Certification, and I have kept the content to a minimum for this reason.
Kind regards,
Jeff

We all work in a Outpatient Surgery Center where codes don’t occur soACLS is a little intimidating . I thought your website made me much more confident. Thank You Debbie

Dear jeff , thank you so much for all the effort you put into this amazing site,i really appreciate all the work you had infested here,
i have a query regards rhythm and pulse check , i know from reading here that each chock followed by 5 cycle then a rhythm check, correct??
but how often do i check pulse every 5 cycles or every rhythm check ?
and if i have a change in rhythm after shock do i continue 5 cycles cpr first or check pulse first ?
thx
Jeff with admin. says
You would only check a pulse if you see a rhythm change. The rhythm change would need to be a rhythm that could have a pulse.
After the shock, you always immediately begin CPR. Do not look at the rhythm until after 5 cycles of CPR. After 5 cycles of CPR then you would perform a rhythm check.
Kind regards,
Jeff

What is the current ED /door to table ( CATH ) time frame does AHA currently recommend. It use to be LESS then 90 minutes. Is that still the desirable time frame?
Jeff with admin. says
Correct. Pg. 101 AHA ACLS Provider manul:
“..goal for ED door-to-balloon inflation time is 90 minutes.”
Kind regards,
Jeff
