Abstract

This study investigated the impact of Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) training on healthcare professionals' practices and confidence. Respondents demonstrated a strong understanding of vascular access techniques, improved confidence in managing cardiac emergencies like ACS and stroke, and skilled dysrhythmia management thanks to ACLS training. Notably, the ability to apply these skills to real-life scenarios showed significant improvement, suggesting adequate preparation for diverse cardiac emergencies. Additionally, the survey revealed a proactive approach to skill maintenance with frequent CPR and ACLS practice. These findings highlight the positive impact of ACLS training on healthcare professionals, significantly bolstering their skills and confidence, ultimately leading to improved patient outcomes and reduced mortality rates in cardiac emergencies. This underscores the importance of healthcare organizations investing in ongoing ACLS training and quality improvement efforts to ensure staff preparedness and optimal patient care.
