Just in case you are wondering what ACLS is here is the definition.
ACLS stands for advanced cardiac life support or advanced cardiovascular life-support.
This is the term given to describe the clinical interventions that are used for the urgent treatment of cardiac arrest, stroke, and other life-threatening medical emergencies.
The term also encompasses the knowledge and skill sets necessary to implement these clinical interventions. In the UK, it’s known as advanced life support. It's a parallel protocol to ACLS.
Whereas some healthcare professionals as well as the average person on the street knows the basics of CPR and BLS (cardiopulmonary resuscitation or basic life support), only qualified healthcare providers can perform ACLS.
This is because with advanced cardiac life support, a healthcare professional has to insert IV’s, manage a person's airway, know how to read and interpret electrocardiograms, and also understand emergency pharmacology. This is not the sort of thing that the average rescuer is qualified to do.
Qualified health-care providers include physicians, dentists, advanced practice providers like PAs and NPs, respiratory therapists, nurses, paramedics, and advanced emergency medical technicians. It is possible that other emergency first responders may also be trained.
This doesn't minimize the need for CPR. When a sudden cardiac arrest occurs, the immediate performance of CPR is critical.
Another vital component to survival is early defibrillation. Now that Automated External Defibrillators are much more widespread, this intervention Is more commonly done now than in the past.
A manual defibrillator is often used when a patient first has their heart rhythms analyzed. In this situation, the machine doesn’t decide when and how to shock the patient. It’s up to the ACLS team leader to make those decisions, which he or she will decide based on the patient’s vital signs and the rhythms indicated on the monitor.
After defibrillation occurs, the next steps in the ACLS process are inserting intravenous (IV) lines and placing devices to open and manage the patient’s airway.
Often drugs such as epinephrine and amiodarone are administered. As these treatments are being administered, the ACLS team is searching quickly for possible reversible causes of cardiac arrest. More specific treatments can be given once these causes have been identified.
These treatments can include an IV injection of an antidote for drug overdose or a measure such as inserting a chest tube.
We are right here in the heart of Orlando/ Winter Park:
Orlando is not just one of the biggest cities in Florida. It is also one of the most important cities in the entire United States. While it is true that Orlando is widely known for its amusement parks, the truth of the matter is that there is so much more to the city than just that aspect.
Orlando is a city rich in culture, history, and a multitude of fascinating attractions. This is one of the great, sprawling metropolises of Florida state, and that fact is realized in many different forms.
Although the full history of Orlando can be traced back thousands of years, the story of the city as it stands in the present can be traced back to when it was formally settled in 1875, as well as when it was incorporated as a city in 1885. Over 238, 000 people live in the actual city of Orlando, with well over two million living in the entire metro area. There is no question that the city has come a long way from the days in which it was known as Jernigan.
Surrounded by lakes and swamps, Orlando has a number of fascinating attractions and components. At the end of the day, it is pretty close to impossible to talk about Orlando, without at least mentioning the theme parks that populate this crowded city. Of course, Orlando has been home to Walt Disney World since 1965.
This heavyweight attraction from one of the most recognizable, beloved brands in the world continues to draw monstrous crowds throughout the year. However, Orlando offers than Walt Disney World. One can also find SeaWorld Adventure Park Orlando, which also includes Aquatica and Discovery Cove.
Orlando also features Universal Orlando Resort, which is definitely the number-one challenger to Disney’s standing as the best theme park in Orlando. Wet ‘N Wild and Holy Land are two other notable theme parks in Orlando.
Those who find themselves in Downtown Orlando will likely want to find themselves on Orange Avenue, which is considered to be the heart and soul of the downtown area. Tons of bars, restaurants, theaters, nightclubs, and other venues can be found in the area. Should the main strip of Orange Avenue be closed, visitors can easily make their way over to Lake Eola, which is considered by locals and visitors alike to be one of the most beautiful parks in the city.
Orlando is also notable for featuring dozens of golf courses.
