The Tachycardia Algorithm shows the steps rescuers should take when an adult presents with symptomatic tachycardia with pulses.
The Suspected Stroke Algorithm shows the steps rescuers should take when an adult has experienced a suspected stroke.
The Post Cardiac Arrest Algorithm shows the steps a provider should take on a patient immediately following cardiac arrest.
The Suspected Opioid Overdose Algorithm shows the steps rescuers should take when faced with a suspected opioid overdose in an adult patient.
The Cardiac Arrest Algorithm shows the steps rescuers should take for a pulseless patient who does not initially respond to BLS interventions.
The Bradycardia with a Pulse Algorithm shows the steps rescuers should take when an adult presents with symptomatic bradycardia with a pulse.
Acute Coronary Syndromes Algorithm demonstrates the steps rescuers should take when a patient presents with symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndrome.
The first thing we look for with tachycardia is the heart rate. Remember, tachycardia is any rate over 100, but in the ACLS algorithm, we’re looking for heart rates and pulses above 150.
There is nothing more time-sensitive than medical care during a stroke. Just like other algorithms, it all starts with the patient presentation.

In this ACLS algorithm video, we review another arrest algorithm with the focus on asystole and PEA. Let’s take a look at our arrest algorithm.
Review the bradycardia algorithm in just 2 minutes with our quickfire video review!
In this rapid algorithm review, we cover ACS (acute coronary syndrome). It all starts with the patient’s presentation.
Disruption of potassium homeostasis causes hypokalemia or hyperkalemia, which can have devastating and long-lasting effects on patients. Learn how to identify and treat hypokalemia and hyperkalemia.
There are some situations that could occur that are outside the “normal” patient care scenario when using an AED. Learn what to do in those situations.
