Welcome to the BLS Essentials Module

This introductory module provides a concise review of Basic Life Support (BLS) skills relevant to pediatric critical care. While not a substitute for full BLS certification, it serves as a vital primer for medical trainees preparing to engage in advanced pediatric critical care learning.

Aims

The aim of this module is to:

• Reinforce essential resuscitation principles
• Ensure learners share a common foundation before starting the Pediatric Critical Care Online Course
• Provide an opportunity to visualize and review core BLS techniques through demonstration videos

Completion of this module will better prepare you to apply higher-level clinical reasoning during the critical care course, as all advanced interventions are built upon solid BLS principles.

The purpose of  pre-course assessment is to test your baseline  knowledge of  pediatric critical care before beginning the online course modules. Pre-assessment is not meant to assign grades or evaluate performance, but rather to help both learners and instructors identify existing strengths and areas that may require more focus. For the instructor, the results highlight common knowledge gaps that can be emphasized during teaching. For the learner, the pre-test encourages self-reflection, primes key concepts, and provides a benchmark against which progress can be measured after completing the course. Therefore, the pre-assessment serves as a valuable diagnostic and motivational tool that guarantees a focused and effective learning experience.

PAYMENT

The sum of 30,000 Naira covers the following modules

• Cardiovascular emergencies (septic, cardiogenic shock)
• Respiratory emergencies (ARDS, hypoxemic , hypercabic respiratory failure)
• Neurologic emergencies
• Fluid,electrolytes and acid-base emergencies
• Hematology-oncology emergencies
• Antibiotic stewardship in pediatric critical care

Modules must be done sequentially. Start with free BLS primer; then pre-assessment before going to above listed modules

Course Aim

Equip participants with cognitive and clinical reasoning skills to rapidly assess, diagnose, and manage critically ill pediatric patients, using organ-system–focused simulated cases.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

1. Identify and interpret key signs of pediatric critical illness in simulated scenarios.
2. Formulate differential diagnoses based on history, exam, and investigations.
3. Make timely and appropriate management decisions, justifying each intervention.
4. Anticipate and interpret changes in patient condition following interventions.
5. Communicate clinical reasoning clearly during simulated emergencies.

Module Structure

Each organ-system module includes:

• Brief focused lecture (10–15 min) on key pathophysiology & clinical approach.
• Case-based simulation (30–40 min) with real-time vital signs, labs, and imaging.
• Decision points where learners choose actions (airway, fluids, drugs, etc.).
• Debrief & takeaway points (10–15 min) — structured around learning objectives.
