Description

As a BLS provider, correctly identifying and managing acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in the field is critical for ensuring the best outcomes. In this case-based session, you'll learn the key differences between ACS presentations, how to quickly recognize each in your patient assessment, and the latest BLS treatment priorities for chest pain emergencies.

We'll walk through scenarios step by step, reinforcing the BLS skillset for acute MI management: from 12-lead fundamentals to high-performance CPR and defibrillation to destination decision-making and handoff at the ED. You'll come away confident in your ability to recognize and react to any ACS case, with a stronger grasp of how your BLS interventions fit into the larger system of care.

Whether you're a newer EMT looking to expand your cardiology knowledge, or a veteran provider brushing up on chest pain best practices, this interactive session will sharpen your clinical judgement and send you back to your truck with a new set of tools for managing ACS.
