Adult Advanced Life Support (ALS) Algorithm
Shockable (VF/pVT) vs Non-Shockable (PEA/Asystole) cardiac arrest management
High-quality CPR: 100-120 bpm, depth 5-6 cm, full chest recoil, minimal interruptions (< 5s for rhythm check).
Step-by-step diagnostic pathways and triage flowcharts
Interactive decision-tree simulation highlighting the exact clinical pathway with mandatory time targets.
Is the patient presenting with signs of hemodynamic instability? (SBP < 90 mmHg, altered mental state, syncope, or cold clammy extremities)
Shockable (VF/pVT) vs Non-Shockable (PEA/Asystole) cardiac arrest management
High-quality CPR: 100-120 bpm, depth 5-6 cm, full chest recoil, minimal interruptions (< 5s for rhythm check).
Stepwise recognition, IM adrenaline dosing, and airway escalation
Intramuscular Adrenaline into anterolateral thigh is the single most critical intervention. Never delay adrenaline for antihistamines or steroids.
The Medstufise reference engines provide peer-reviewed summaries for healthcare professionals and medical trainees. Always correlate clinical calculators, algorithms, and dosing tables with bedside clinical signs, patient-specific renal/hepatic parameters, and local NHS Trust hospital protocols.
