Course Learning Objectives:
By using these streaming videos in conjunction with the PALS Course, students will be able to:

• Perform high-quality pediatric CPR aligned with AHA BLS standards
• Identify patients requiring immediate intervention and initiate CPR within 10 seconds
• Apply effective team dynamics in pediatric resuscitation scenarios
• Recognize and manage respiratory distress, respiratory failure, shock, and cardiopulmonary arrest
• Distinguish between compensated versus decompensated (hypotensive) shock and provide appropriate early interventions
• Identify and respond to unstable arrhythmias, and apply correct post–cardiac arrest care protocols

Posters Included:

• PALS Systematic Approach Algorithm
• PALS Systematic Approach Summary
• Pediatric Cardiac Arrest Algorithm
• Pediatric Bradycardia With a Pulse Algorithm
• Pediatric Tachycardia With a Pulse Algorithm
