Maternal Cardiac Arrest (MCA) is a life-threatening event that may occur in any healthcare setting, even outside the hospital. Cardiac arrest in this population poses unique challenges to a healthcare team since there are critical actions affecting two patients. The ALS: Maternal Cardiac Arrest Module explores the why of MCA and how to treat pregnant cardiac arrest patients within a hospital.

This eLearning course features True Adaptive™ learning, where students follow a learning path personalized by their own inputs and self-reported confidence level.

After successfully completing this course, students should be able to:

• Identify current factors influencing maternal morbidity and mortality in the United States in relation to maternal cardiac arrest

• Discuss modifications that are required in maternal resuscitation protocols

• Describe key components of the management schema for response to cardiopulmonary arrest during pregnancy
