Basic life support (BLS) is a level of medical care which is used for victims of
life-threatening illnesses or injuries until they can be given full medical care
at a hospital.
Advanced cardiac life support or advanced cardiovascular life support (ACLS) refers
to a set of clinical interventions for the urgent treatment of cardiac arrest, stroke
and other life-threatening medical emergencies, as well as the knowledge and skills
to deploy those interventions.
Heart attacks are the leading cause of deaths in the India. As per the statistics,
one-fifth of the deaths in India are from Coronary Heart Disease. By the year 2020,
it will account for one-third of all the deaths in the country. There is an estimate
of 45 million Coronary Artery Disease in India. With an increasing number of young
Indians hooked to roller-coaster lifestyle and falling prey to coronary artery disease,
the future looks even grimmer.
There is a huge need for Nurses, Paramedics, Doctors, First Responders and even
general public to be aware of identifying the symptoms of the cardiac arrest and
how to act in case of an emergency. INSCOL being an International Training Center
for American Heart Association , has trained 5000+ healthcare providers and police
personnel on Basic Life Support Skills & Advanced Cardiac Life Support Skills. Our
clients and participants have shared experiences, when they have been able to act
more effectively in a crisis situation and saved a life.

Healthcare professionals who respond to cardiovascular emergencies in and out of the hospital enhance their treatment knowledge and skills through the AHA’s ACLS training courses. This course emphasizes the importance of basic life support (BLS), integration of effective BLS with ACLS interventions, and effective team interaction and communication during resuscitation.
The AHA’s pediatric-focused courses provide advanced assessment and recognition training for healthcare professionals who treat cardiovascular emergencies in infants, children, and adolescents.
