Heart attacks, also known as myocardial infarctions, are caused by a blockage that inhibits the flow of blood to or within the heart. The lack of blood flow will cause the heart muscle tissue to die.
Heart attacks can last for minutes or days. may or may not lead to cardiac arrest. You will learn to recognize the signs and symptoms of a heart attack and why it’s important to act quickly.
People in cardiac arrest often present a common arrhythmia called ventricular fibrillation. During ventricular fibrillation, the heart's lower chambers suddenly start beating chaotically and do not pump blood. Biological death occurs within minutes after the heart stops. Cardiac arrest may be reversed if cardiopulmonary resuscitation is performed immediately and a defibrillator is used to shock the heart and restore a normal heart rhythm within 3-5 minutes.
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation is provided to victims who are in Cardiac Arrest. Rescue Breathing provides oxygen to the bloodstream of a victim who is unable to adequately breathe. Chest compressions circulate the oxygen-rich blood throughout the victim’s body when the heart is unable to pump blood. The purpose of CPR is to provide an oxygen-rich supply of blood to the major organs, to buy time until Defibrillation and Advanced Care can be administered.

Changes in CPR - There have been many changes in the way CPR is performed. During the assessment, we now teach CAB(D) which stands for Circulation, Airway, Breathing, and Defibrillation.
This is due to many studies focusing on cardiac arrest survival rates and ECC (Emergency Cardiovascular Care). In the past, the focus was given to opening the victim’s airway and providing oxygen. The ABCs were taught which stands for Airway, Breathing, and Circulation.
The new focus on providing quality chest compressions and early defibrillation has proven to increase SCA survival rates. Other changes can be found on our Key Numbers Chart. The ratio of compressions to ventilations has changed, it is now 30:2 for nearly all types of victims. CPR is now performed for 2 minutes before pausing to reassess the victim.
Determine Responsiveness and Activate EMS - You will learn how to determine if your victim is in need of emergency medical attention. If the victim is unresponsive it is important to call 911 or activate your emergency medical services. You will also learn how to assess your victim. Determine if your victim is breathing or if signs of circulation are present.
You’ll learn how to perform CPR and save a life. Immediate quality CPR and defibrillation within 3-5 minutes will give your victim the best chance of survival. It’s important to do effective chest compressions. You will also learn the correct way to provide ventilation to supply much-needed oxygen to the victim.
Rescue Breathing - If your victim has a pulse or signs of circulation but is not breathing adequately, rescue breathing will help supply needed oxygen to prevent the victim from going into cardiac arrest. This class will cover the correct method of performing rescue breathing and when it is required.
Spinal and Cervical Injuries can complicate resuscitation efforts. It’s important to know what to do and what takes precedence. You will learn when to suspect spinal/cervical injury, how to correctly open a victim’s airway, and how to help the victim while minimizing the risk of additional injury.
Re-assessment should happen once about every 2 minutes. Even if your victim is breathing and has a pulse. If you place the victim in the correct recovery position, you will be able to monitor the victim and re-assess while waiting for EMS to arrive.
2 Rescuer CPR - Professional level courses such as Healthcare Provider BLS include 2 Rescuer CPR. You will learn how to properly perform this method and the additional benefits to having 2 rescuers working together.
Our online CPR renewal classes include the use of AEDs or Automated External Defibrillators. One of the biggest advancements in first responder cardiac life support is the Automated External Defibrillator. When a victim is suffering from ventricular fibrillation or similar shockable rhythms, the AED can help get the heart back to a normal sinus rhythm.
By sending an electrical shock through the heart, the AED can stop the irregular contractions and electrical impulses causing cardiac arrest. The best thing about these devices is that anyone can be trained to use them. AED certification can be done quickly and easily online with our accredited classes.
In this course, you will learn how to deal with a Foreign Body Airway Obstruction or Choking victim. You will be more likely to use this life-saving skill outside of a hospital than anything else you will learn in this course. The Heimlich Maneuver or Subdiaphragmatic Thrusts are very effective and easy to perform. You will learn the correct methods to assist choking victims.
Medical-Legal - This course also covers the medical/legal aspects of performing CPR. Most states have comprehensive Good Samaritan laws to protect potential rescuers. It’s important to know what you can and cannot do to help a victim.
Lay Rescuer or Hands-Only CPR - Almost anyone can perform CPR. Studies have shown that over 350,000 people suffer sudden cardiac arrest outside of a hospital setting. If everyone were to learn CPR, many of these lives could be saved. The ECC studies have shown that compression-only CPR is very effective.
There are only 2 simple steps. Step 1 is to call 9-1-1. It’s important to activate EMS and get help on the way.
The second step is to do chest compressions. Press hard and fast. Perform chest compressions at a rate of 100 to 120 compressions per minute.
Be sure to push down about 2 inches. Keep going until EMS arrives and takes over. Survival rates increase dramatically when CPR is performed. Whether you take the professional course or not, performing CPR to the best of your ability can save a life.
No matter who you are, no matter what walk of life you’re in, you may very well be the one person who has the chance to save a life.
It may come up in the workplace, in a school, or in a church. It may come up at the scene of an accident. It could happen at a restaurant. It could happen on an airplane or on the bus.
The truth is that emergencies happen in the blink of an eye, and unless you’re prepared with your CPR certification, the person who you might have to save might well not make it.
Don’t take the online CPR certification class because you want to be a hero--most of us will never find ourselves in that situation. But take it because you care about the people around you. You care about your kids and your parents and your coworkers. These are all people who may very well need life-saving CPR, and if you have an up-to-date CPR certification, you could be the one to give it to them.
So don’t wait to get your online CPR certification, and if you have a certification and let it lapse, then get an online CPR renewal. There may come a time in your life when you’re very glad that you did.

Answer: A skills demonstration is not required for online CPR certification or online CPR Renewal. However, your school or employer may require that you demonstrate your proficiency in CPR.
There are several options available if you are required to perform a CPR skills demonstration. You can meet with a local instructor to take a practical skills exam.
You can also demonstrate your skills to an online instructor. We can send you a CPR mannequin for practice and demonstration. A computer or phone with video capability is required.
