OBJECTIVES AND CONTENTS
Objectives of the Course Unit:	The aim of this course is to enable students to comprehensively assess the scene and the patient during the pre-hospital emergency care process, accurately analyse ECG rhythms, and professionally apply advanced life support algorithms and electrical therapies in life-threatening situations.
Contents of the Course Unit:	This course covers applying primary assessment techniques, applying secondary assessment techniques, assessing respiratory system disorders, assessing cardiovascular system disorders and providing emergency care, providing emergency care to patients with chest pain, assessing nervous system disorders, and providing emergency care.

KEY LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE COURSE UNIT (On successful completion of this course unit, students/learners will or will be able to)
It immediately detects hazards at the scene and creates a safe working area.
By examining the patient or injured person from head to toe, it identifies life-threatening issues within seconds.
When looking at an ECG strip, it distinguishes between normal and abnormal rhythms.
It determines which rhythm requires defibrillation and which requires drug treatment.
Uses the defibrillator safely and quickly without breaking the rules.
By acquiring airway management skills (such as intubation), it provides advanced respiratory support to the patient.
Manages advanced life support protocols (medication, massage, shock) with the team in a patient whose heart has stopped.
It assesses the risk of myocardial infarction (MI) in a patient presenting with chest pain and applies the appropriate algorithm.
It provides appropriate emergency intervention when the heart is beating too fast (tachyarrhythmia) or too slow (bradyarrhythmia).
Develops a strategy to resuscitate the patient by investigating the underlying causes of cardiac arrest (5H - 5T).
