We continue this series by taking a look at our first ACLS algorithm, the cardiac arrest algorithm. This is the one that you will probably use most often and arguably the most important one. It will be imperative that you know this algorithm and be able to act quickly on the American Heart Association's (AHA) simplified approach to this emergency situation. While this is no replacement for certification, the hope is to provide a good resource for learning either before class, or in the 2 years in-between certification.

I need notes
Hey I was wondering, is there a specific time that we should be checking for a pulse ? Every 3 mins ?
Fantastic. Short and specific.
Thank you, you helped make it easier to understand.
You are a life saver bro! This breakdown makes learning so much fater and relatable. Your walkthrough at the end put the cherry on top!
I watched this video ahead from my ASCL session next week, and really loved it! Your explanation is so organised which make it a lot easier to digest and memorise, and the last scenario was a bomb, such a useful and brilliant practice to see if i understood the cycle properly :) Thank you, Thank you!
Awesome video! I will definitely be watching this a few more times. I really enjoyed going through the scenario at the end. I am a new grad starting a job as an RN in the ED soon and this is very helpful. Also, I literally laughed out loud when you said “The patient is not getting any deader. We want to slam this medication.”
Appreciated the scenarios and codes! I have been out of bedside for 5 years and I have been nervous about my upcoming ACLS certification. These videos make it so much easier to understand! Thank you and I cracked up when patient is getting any deader! ha!
I’m a new nurse for the ER and this video helped me critically think through my work sim!! Thank you!!
New grad RN here. Thank you soooo much for this video! This was always so confusing to me during nursing school and now that I have to get my ACLS for my first job I feel so confident after watching your video. I really enjoyed the mini scenario too!!
I loved the example at the end. It really helps to make sure the information is understood. Thank you.
Studying for my ACLS exam and will graduate nursing end of this year. Your teaching methodology is extremely helpful.
I just experienced two cardiac arrests in three days and was brought back after one shock and one 2m CPR from each, im told. I don't remember much about them so I really enjoyed this video, thank you. Now i know what they actually did to bring me back.
I love all your videos! Always great to have a refresher and an explanation for everything that we do.
I wish I had of found this page when I was in school, id be a lot further. Explained perfectly and the proactive helped cemented it. Phenomenal! Thank you!
Loove that you provided a scenario at the end!!
Great! I've had a lot of good feedback on that!
I've been a med surg nurse for 5 years and have recently gone to critical care and I am doing my first ACLS certification. I really appreciate your videos. You walk through everything nicely so that I can stamp it in my brain. It has already proved helpful in codes I've been in recently. Thanks!
This is so great to hear! I'm really glad you like the video and that it has been helpful for you. That is my whole goal with this channel! Wishing you the best in ACLS!
Wanted to say thanks a million for your videos! I'm a dentist that (very annoyingly) has to take ACLS every 2 years to keep my enteral sedation licensing, even though I never use an ECG or have any of the ACLS related medications. In short, I never use ACLS and have to re-learn it every 2 years.
The test was a breeze last weekend thanks to you. Watched all your videos twice and skimmed through the manual real quick, and I felt comfortable day of the test!
Excellent video! Right to the point everything clearly explained. Listen to the video while organizing the house. Understood better than in a regular class. Definitely will watch it again in the future. Thanks!
As a nursing student with a code simulation tomorrow this video gives me so much confidence!!
Right on! You got this Steven!
what's a code simulation?
@@biancogiusto simulating a code bleu
@@incredibledn *blue
@stevenhoward3430 How did the code stimulation go?
This is very good and easy to memorize especially doing the last few minutes. Thanks
Everything in this content is superb! From voice quality, visual aids and the way how he simplified a complex algorithm! Thank you!!
Thanks Jayson. I really appreciate the kind words! Glad you enjoyed the video.
I'm a nursing student and we have a Code Blue simulation this semester... This has been the best video over ACLS for Cardiac Arrest thus far! Thank you so much for this video!
Thanks so much! Always good to use these as a refresher before my ICU rotations :)
Can't wait for the next lesson on ROSC!
Very cool! Post cardiac arrest will probably be a few lessons down the line, but is coming. Still a lot more fun ACLS stuff to talk about.
This was excellent!
I love that you ran through the scenario like a quiz. So helpful!
Awesome to hear this! Thank you. And yes, I've gotten a lot of great feedback on the scenario! Will have to try and do more in the future.
YES!!! You made straight forwardly EASY to understand, thank you!
Yeah , that was the 🍒 on the top
You have the best CC/ICU content out there. Got me through CC
I am currently in Paramedic classes and have been struggling through ACLS, this has really helped me!
Thank you for sharing this! Indeed very helpful, interactive and easy to understand. I liked the part where you checked how your viewers really understood the algorithm by giving a scenario.😃👍
Awesome to hear Jowena. I figured it would be a good recap of what we went over along with a little mental exercise to cement the learning :)
Watching these on repeat until my ACLS class. Really liked the scenario and questions it’s like a mini quiz. More quizzes please!
Hope the class went well!
@@ICUAdvantage man they pushed it back like twice. So I kept studying thinking it was going to be like nursing school Bc I got nervous when I saw skills checklist. Nursing school PTSD kicked in and I studied like the test was tomorrow everyday for two weeks. By the time I got in there I coulda taught that class theoretically 😂
@@pillmatik4239 haha that sucks, but clearly you had the info down. And yeah, all that stuff moving forward is so much more down to earth. CCRN was a tough one, but also very doable. I'm sure so of the other certs are the same. But congrats on knocking it out of the park lol
As a hospital pharmacist I came to youtube to watch “I’m not okay” by My Chemical Romance, but instead sidetracked by ICU Advantage again!! Cardiac Arrest, Bradycardia, and Tachycardia later… I really appreciate your videos. I’ve watched many of your other videos in my efforts to better help our incredible nursing staff and our patients.
I'm a registered nurse in the UAE and your video is really helpful. Thank you immensely
Thank you so much! I have my ACLS coming up next week! This is so helpful! 🙏🏼
I'm late getting to comments... wondering if you took it already! You'll have to let me know how it went!
I passed my ACLS 😃 Thanks so much! 🙏🏼
The video was excellent-thank you Eddie for this wonderful review!
SO happy to hear this Susan! You are very welcome and thank you for taking the time to leave a comment!
Thank you for sharing these videos. They helped me a lot to
prepare for my new job as an ER Nurse :)
I have ACLS on December 22nd and this helped me so much. Thank you!!!
Hi Eddie! I hope you’re doing okay! Well, I just want to thank you for all these videos on acls, I just passed my certification today and I must say that what you’re doing is way much better and informative than the regular CEU topics. I learned and still learning a lot from all your videos. I cannot say enough for a job well done! Thank you for being part of our journey as nurses! God bless you and your team!
This is so fantastic to read Joy! I really try to present the material in a way that is easy to understand but also not completely boring, as I know most CEUs are. Ugh. Thank you for taking the time to leave such a great comment!
@@ICUAdvantage yes, CEU reading materials are too boring. I prefer these videos of yours where the content really stuck in my head for real, or maybe because I’m just more of a visual learner. Well, I just hope we can earn our CEU’s from watching your videos if that’s possible- I’m sure everyone who knows your videos are going to love it! Keep them coming! Thanks a lot, Eddie!
I appreciate your professionalism. Loved the "color-coding", as this is how I organize facts within my brain! Loved it! Thank you! Thank you!
Thank you. I'm very much a visual person as you can tell lol
One of the best you tube video about ACLS
Thank you so much! I have been struggling understanding this through reading and through your illustrations it made it easy for me to get it! It’s going to be my first time taking theACLS training and yes it’s really confusing. Thank you ❤
I am a RN and a BLS Instructor. I recently took ACLS and your videos helped a ton! Hope to be an instructor soon!
So great to hear this! Best of luck and I'm sure you'll do great as an ACLS instructor!
I have always appreciated your content, both throughout nursing school and now as a working RN!! I really enjoyed the addition of the scenario-based critical thinking exercise.... keep 'em coming!!
So awesome to hear Justin! Glad to hear these videos have helped you along your journey in nursing. Also glad that you liked the scenario. Seemed like a good opportunity to try something new!
Lecturr hyponatrmia
@@ICUAdvantage hypontremia lecture on
life saver! I'm studying for my acute care final and this was a great refresher!
Terrific delivery and clear explanations. I have been a RN for 25 years and really enjoyed your reviews.
Wow, thank you so much Abbie! I'm really happy to hear you enjoyed it!
I appreciate the good job you’re doing, I would you to upload bradycardia and bradyarhythmia. Thanks 🙏
Thank you so much and glad to be able to help. I do actually have all of the ACLS algorithm videos made in this series. Were you able to find them?
Thank you so much for this. As a medical student who's struggling to study all this without having any clinical experience is really hard! Your videos have been very helpful! Thank you so much ❤️
SO happy to be able to help!
Very good review, the division to right and left side and treatment makes it easier. Thanks
Reviewing ACLS for next week's recertification and your video explained cardiac arrest scenarios very well, a great supplement to studying from the book, feeling more confident after watching this. Thank you!! And yes, I subscribed.
Yay, really glad you are finding them helpful.
Great Video as always, Eddie! 🤟
And thank you as always Risa! Appreciate you and thanks for watching.
Just starting my AHA training! Thanks for the time taken to make this content, it makes it so much easier to digest and learn :) My only question would be: Do non-shockable rythms get cardioversion? Or is that a whole different level / topic of medical attention?
Plus, as others also pointed out, nothing better than reviewing what you learned with a clinical example at the end. Such a great idea thanks for that as well! :D
You can’t cardiovert asystole. Cardiovert = shock
This was very helpful. I really liked working through the scenario at the end. It was very helpful. I wish there were several practice scenarios included!
Good stuff. I became certified but didn't know a thing after completing the course. The test was taken as a group with answers given to us. Thanks so much!
Doing ACLS for the 1st time, wow, it's no longer so complex after goind through the topic
That is exactly my goal! Glad you liked it!
Could you do one for vtach stable vs unstable and when to perform cardioversion vs defibrillation
Actually the Tachycardia algorithm is releasing tomorrow. As for cardioversion vs defibrillation, I have a lesson where I think I take a good look at that here: th-cam.com/video/lWHVukB0JAU/w-d-xo.html
Let me know if that is what you were looking for!
@@ICUAdvantage Thank you, you are a baller.
Thank you so much for this video! I used these video (and the other ACLS) videos to review before certifying, and it was extremely helpful. I really liked having the quiz/scenario at the end. So helpful; thank you!!
SO much good feedback on the scenario. Happy to hear these videos were helpful for you!!
Great video! I’m taking the ACLS tomorrow and I &liked the scenario you did at the end of this vid. Thanks!
13:27 is torsade de point. You need to give magnesium on top of what you did.
Awesome thank you, use this on the road all the time is really helpful.
I’m a new grad and just landed a job at a level I hospital MICU … your videos are all amazing and helping me so much! ❤️
Awesome. Congrats on the new grad position Anthony. Glad to hear the videos are helpful for you.
Thank you this has really helped for my 1st ACLS certification
i am new as critical care nurse and this video helped me a lot to know more about ACLS. thanks
Awesome video, had to subscribe right away. Thank you so much for this, you really simplified everything.
This is an excellent video! it's crystal clear. I'm gonna use it as my guide. thank you.
I love how you revise the topic by using a scenario. It's work!
Yes! I've heard a lot of good responses to that!
Great review and scenario. Thank you for all your help
@@100drempels Happy to be able to help!
Thanks a lot. You are helping lots of people here.
An excellent video and a must watch for medical professionals. As a nurse this sums everything up and I had to share. Now you don't have to be scared of code blue. Thank you ICU Advantage ❤❤❤❤ you did great with this content 👏 👌 👍 ❤️ 💜 🙌
I love the scenario! It really solidifies the algorithm. Thank you!
Thank you! I've had a lot of good feedback on that.
YESSSSS THANK YOUUUU❣️ every night after my shift I study and these videos are so helpful ❣️
Yay! So awesome to hear this! 😍 Happy you are enjoying them! 😊
Thank you thank you thank you!!! This helped me so much! God bless you!
2nd one of your videos that I watched. I'm studying for ACLS (first time). Thank you for sharing! This was really helpful and straight to the point. Easier algorithm to remember.
I am finally given an opportunity to work in the Direct Observation Unit (DOU). I am very thankful for your videos to learn so that my training would go more smoothly. Thank you very very much.
Very cool! Happy to have been able to help.
The scenario was super helpful, thank you so much!
This was super helpful! I'm a new LPN on a tele floor (3 months) and had my first code blue the other day. I really didnt learn a lot about the rhythms and how to treat them in nursing school and this video has helped me prepare for my ACLS class. I understand now which med to use, when, and why. Thanks a ton!
Fantastic! Really glad to be able to have helped!
Didn’t know LPN’s could take ACLS
This is much better than my instructor explaining it. Absolutely PERF
This is so helpfully I have my ALS coming up
Thank you
Very helpful and I loved the scenario at the end, particularly as it incorporated the different rhythms and cemented what to do
Awesome. That was my hope and have had great feedback on that.
This video literally visualized and dumbed it down for me. I watched the video again and drew out the diagram. The scenarios definitely helped reinforce the information. Subscribed!
Woohoo!! Awesome to hear this Marina! Welcome aboard and really glad this video was so helpful for you. That is truly my goal with all these videos and makes me happy to know they are well received.
Great review! Very easy to follow and learn. I am getting back into acute care after taking many years off to raise my 4 kids. I am taking ACLS tomorrow and this was a great review for my old brain!
This really helped me to get this stuff, just started working on Cardiology as a junior. Thank you!
Thanks for this…my quarterly RQI did not go over what i so desperately needed a refresher on. Thank you
Great explanation! You made it simple to understand....Thank you
Thank you so much for your video. Studying for ACLS always intimidates me. This video is engaging and gives me confidence. Thank you so much. I am now a new subscriber.
Thanks so much for your videos. They are so helpful. God bless you
super thanks to you for this well prepared coaching, Godspeed
I like the scenerios. It's cement the treatment in my mind.
This was a great review. It didnt drag on it was right to the point and easy to listen to.
This is a GREAT visual review and absolutely love the senerio. Thank you!
Much appreciated!
Presentation was clear, precise, and very helpful. I was expecting a comment about magnesium when the torsade de point rhythm was presented, but recognize that would be an understood part of the overall treatment process. Thank you for taking the time share this information.
Yeah I've had that come up a couple times. I should have just chosen a basic v-tach example lol Glad you liked it!
This is a good review for the ER too. Thanks
Amazing video!! I have definitely learnt and will retain the information you have taught us! I start in the ICU in august and your videos are really helpful!
AWESOME! Congrats on the new ICU position and happy to hear you liked it!
I really enjoyed the last scenario part ! Thank you !
I have been a critical care nurse for years and just wanted to say excellent presentation. Stumbled across your video and wish I would have had this long ago when I was a student. I subscribed and you definitely get a like!
What kind of ICU do you work in? I’m thinking about starting ICU as a new grad
@@kevinruiz4125as of now I am trained in all critical care units (ICU,Neuro, and CICU) however I started as a new grad in ICU years ago.I would strongly suggest starting in a critical care unit. Within this environment you will become a very competent nurse. If you find out critical care is not for you, the knowledge you have gained with the usually required year there will make being on another floor feel easy. If you choose not to do critical care, you may start to feel uncomfortable with situations that may need a more skilled nurse. I like being that nurse. Good luck to you and you’ve chosen a great career.
Love how you teach, very clear and thorough.
Thanks so much Pauline. I appreciate that.
Excellent. This helped me to understand ACLS well. Bravo.
As a first year student paramedic with my OSCE tomorrow for ILS this has helped me out so much 😊
Awesome to hear Debra! Best of luck tomorrow. You've got this!
That video is a treasure! Thank you a lot!
Just got a job offer for the CVICU as a new grad. Your videos are going to be super helpful. Especially with the cardiac population. Subscribed!
Very cool! Congrats on the new job. You'll love it there!
Dude, you're an amazing teacher.
One of the best videos on this I've seen. Thank you.
Wow, thank you so much!
been looking for this kind of algo. and finally!!!! your the boss! arigathanks!! mah men!!!!!
Glad I could help!
Wonderful video. Well animated and explained. Thank you very much for your time and effort
Awesome. I'm starting as an ER nurse in a cardiac and stroke specialty ER and this is so helpful.
Very cool Katie! Best of luck to you!
I love this!!! The scenario was great!!!
I like learning about stuff like this to possibly explain to patients relatives when they ask about it once I will interpreting for our local hospital
Woohoo! Yes, its truly great to have a good grasp on something yourself as it makes explaining it easier, especially to those who may not understand!
THIS LECTURE MAKE MY DUTY EASY. 😢😢😢 THANK YOU FOR MAKE THIS ACLS EASY TO UNDERSTAND. ❤
