This is most helpful to me. I do not work with ECG being in an antenatal/gyn unit but this is the first time I can actually recall these basic rhythms, finally understanding the “blocks”, and actually remember the rhythms. Thank you.

I just purchased your ACLS course and will take it next month for re-certification. Just wondering if the written questions will be similar to the AHA ACLS certification 2016. The first time I took the written exam, I found it to be extremely hard to pass. I look forward to start your program but any info on the written exam will benefit.
Thanks much..

There are practice questions, megacode scenarios, and videos on the website that thoroughly review all of the content from the AHA ACLS provider manual. This website should give you a complete preparation for the AHA ACLS provider course.
Kind regards,
Jeff

Dear Jeff:
You did an excellent job on your website! It served as the perfect refresher for me . I only reviewed for 2 days and got all 50 (scored 100/A+) written questions correct plus rocked my megacode.

THANK YOU FOR THIS SITE JEFF!! I just completed ACLS for the first time and passed with flying colors! I had none of the prerequisite knowledge and learned it all from this fantastic site! I had it on my iPhone so it was convenient to study from while I was on vacation or stuck in traffic!
My ACLS instructor was especially impressed with my Megacode responses. The sample quizzes and Megacodes from you saved me for sure -you made learning FUN!
I’ve recommended you to all my co-workers regardless of whether they’re taking ACLS for the first time or just re-certifying.
Thanks again!

I am scheduled to take an American Heart Association ACLS Class to get my AHA ACLS back on April 9th, and 10th. Does anyone have advice so I can successfully get through, and pass the Class, and quickly move forward to AHA PALS, and Advanced Trauma Life Support ATLS ????
Preparing for the Paramedic Program BYUi .
Thank you

This site will thoroughly prepare you for AHA ACLS certification and you should have plenty of time to prepare if you start now. After you finish with ACLS, I think it would be wise to complete advanced trauma life support and then move on to PALS.
Kind regards,
Jeff

Hi Jeff, Wow ! There are tons of info ! I am so excited.!
About 3rd degree block EKG, it is a hard strips to recognized quickly.
Although, it is a completely disorganized PQRS, actually some video shows more # of QRS, than some others ( type 2) . Are those QRS perfusion? I see the imminent danger. Can you kindly
explain about the physiological aspect ? Also 3rd degree block has to have certain # of QRS ?
ex. less than 40, 30, 20 / min. etc. Thank you so…. much.

Physiologically speaking, the atrium and the ventricle are not coordinated at all. The atria are doing their own thing and the ventricles are doing their own thing. Electrical impulses are not being delivered from the atrium to the ventricles. There is no specific number of QRS complexes or p-waves. There is simply no coordinated effort between the upper and lower parts of the heart.
Kind regards,
Jeff
