EMT-Basics can find themselves in critical situations that require advanced cardiac life support (ACLS). Although EMT-Basics are not trained to provide advanced-level skills, there is much they can do to improve the quality of management and thus the patient's chance for survival by understanding ACLS and facilitating its administration by ALS providers. ACLS for EMT-Basics familiarizes the reader with cardiac emergencies and the skills used to manage them.

Orthopaedic surgeons and the Academy are the authoritative sources of information for patients and the general public on musculoskeletal conditions, treatments and related issues.More than one in four Americans have bone or joint health problems, making them the greatest cause of lost work days in the U.S. When orthopaedic surgeons restore mobility and reduce pain, they help people get back to work and to independent, productive lives.
