Learning Outcome
- During an acute ischemic stroke, there is a core of tissue that has been irreversibly damaged by ischaemia. Surrounding this core is the ischemic penumbra—tissue that is hypoperfused and at risk of permanent damage but may recover normal function if blood flow is restored. The primary goal of acute stroke treatment is to restore flow to the ischemic penumbra.
- Intravenous (IV) tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) is the standard treatment for acute ischemic stroke if administered within 4.5 hours of the patient’s last known normal time. IV tPA significantly reduces the risk of disability following ischaemic stroke.
- Although IV tPA benefits all ischemic stroke subtypes, patients with large artery occlusions often fail to achieve recanalisation and may have poor functional outcomes, even with tPA treatment. Intra-arterial thrombolysis, performed after IV tPA or as an alternative for those with contraindications to tPA, offers another treatment option for these patients.
Description
Patients experiencing an acute stroke require IV access and cardiac monitoring in the emergency department (ED). These patients are at risk of developing cardiac arrhythmias, and atrial fibrillation can either cause an acute stroke (via embolic disease) or arise as a complication.

TheBCLS/CCLS course exceeded my expectations, providing comprehensive insights into cutting-edge techniques and technologies, enhancing my hands-on skills immensely.
The BCLS/CCLS course is a concise and impactful program, offering a solid foundation in recognising patients at risk for cardiac arrest. Iam now confident in airway management, drugs, and identification of the cause of arrest and its correction.
The crisis management course is a very well thought course providing comprehensive insights into how one can recognize a sick victim. The case based scenario helped me in early recognition of sick patient, how to work as a team. It helped me in decision-making and in better communication among team members. I have seen tremendous improvement in non technical skills.
I would highly recommend the courses provided by ASC. I got enough hands on on line insertion. Since I could practice neddling techniques with expert faculties, I am pretty confident with all procedures now. Got a chance to work with both model and wet tissues. Choose these courses if you want enough hands-on practice.
