Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS)
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death and disability in the world. Many studies have clearly highlighted the fact that the fatal or foreboding effects of cardiovascular disease are preventable, yet they continue to rise; primarily because the awareness and preventive strategies remain inadequate.
