Pass ACLS Tip of the Day

About Pass ACLS Tip of the Day

I'm Paul from PassACLS.com and I'm here to help you pass ACLS. Like an audio flash card, this podcast is intended to aid any medical professional preparing for an Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) class. Each three-to-nine minute episode covers one of the skills needed to recognize a stroke or cardiac emergency and work as a high performing team to deliver safe, evidence-based patient care. Listening to a tip a day for a few weeks prior to your ACLS class will help cement the core concepts that have been shown to improve outcomes in patients suffering a heart attack, cardiac arrest, or stroke. In addition to the Chain of Survival, core concepts, and ACLS algorithms; specific information needed to pass the written exam, BLS checks, and megacode following the ILCOR 2025 recommendations are presented. Healthcare providers that are already ACLS certified, but rarely participate in codes, may find listening a helpful reminder. Disclaimer: This podcast is a supplement to your course's approved text book and videos - not a replacement. The information presented is for educational purposes only, is intended for medical professionals, and is not medical advice. Medical professionals should follow their local laws, agency protocols, and act only within their scope of practice.

Benchmark Goals for Stroke Assessment & Treatment

Published 5 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] A general assessment completed within 10 minutes of arrival. A non-contrast CT of the head to differentiate between an ischemic and a hemorrhagic stroke should be completed within 20 minutes of arrival at the hospital and read within 45. Administration of thrombolytics should occur within 60 minutes of arrival at the hospital. This is sometimes referred to as the door to needle time. Multiple studies have shown significantly better outcomes the sooner that reperfusion is accomplished, so many facilities with stroke teams have standardized pre-hospital stroke assessment and thrombolytic checklist protocols.
