About Course

Heartcode Complete Pediatric Advanced Life Support is a competency-based education program developed by the American Heart Association (AHA) in collaboration with Laerdal Medical. The program is designed to help healthcare professionals maintain proficiency in pediatric resuscitation skills through a low-dose, high-frequency training model, replacing traditional episodic classroom recertification.

RQI PALS integrates online cognitive learning with hands-on psychomotor skills assessment using simulation technology that provides real-time feedback. The program emphasizes early recognition and treatment of pediatric respiratory failure, shock, and cardiac arrest, while reinforcing effective team dynamics, accurate medication administration, rhythm recognition, and adherence to current AHA PALS algorithms.

RQI PALS supports continuous competency verification, improves skills retention, and aligns pediatric emergency response with evidence-based AHA guidelines in hospital and clinical environments.
