ACLS Cardiac Arrest Emergency Nurses Preparedness
Abstract
Background: Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) is a critical procedure in cardiac arrest management that requires both technical skills and strong teamwork. Emergency Department (ED) nurses play a key role in implementing ACLS, yet their level of competence and preparedness remains varied across healthcare settings.
systematic review is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of training and the factors influencing nurses’ preparedness.
Purpose: To review and analyze the knowledge, preparedness, and effectiveness of ACLS training among emergency nurses based on recent research findings.
Methods: This study employed an integrative literature review approach. Articles were retrieved from PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, and Google Scholar databases. Inclusion criteria consisted of studies published between 2020 and 2025 focusing on nurses’ competence and preparedness in ACLS implementation. Data were analyzed thematically following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines.
Results: Ten selected studies revealed that simulation-based, experiential, and gamified training effectively improved nurses’ knowledge, technical skills, and teamwork during ACLS performance. The main factors influencing preparedness included clinical experience, training frequency, and institutional support. Moreover, the presence of ACLS-certified nurses was associated with higher ROSC success rates.
Conclusion: Emergency nurses’ ACLS competence and preparedness can be enhanced through continuous education, regular evaluation, and institutional support. Strengthening simulation-based ACLS training is a strategic approach to improving cardiac arrest management outcomes in emergency departments.
