Found a really good website for learning ACLS

Published

It is http://www.skillstat.com.

I used it mostly for learning rhythms. I went from getting 15% right (and that was guessing) to 100% with no problems.

There is a learning segment and a "game" segment which I used as a self test/practice activity.

The only caveat I have is, be careful to look at the waves and note to yourself why you think it is a block or arrest or sinus or junctional or whatever.

I found myself seeing the wave and clicking the right choice like Pavlov's dog. That wouldn't help you later when you have to actually identify a pattern.

Good luck!

Thank You. Great Site.

Thanks for the site. I went to it and it is extremely small. Am I the only one? How do I make it bigger?

Thank you for the info.

Bebob...you are using a mac aren't you? This happens sometimes with skillstat. Try using a different browser, that seems to fix the problem (I think firefox works)

Thanks Airforce RN, it works now!:smilecoffeecup:

This is kinda funny.

We use seamonkey, which is a kissing cousin to firefox, I am led to believe.

I couldn't make it bigger until I used IE.

I'm sorry I forgot to tell about that. All the excitement last week, I'm just now getting back to normal (whatever that is....).
