A PALS (Pediatric Advanced Life Support) certification is specialized medical training focused on treating critically ill or injured children, from infants through adolescents. The certification equips healthcare professionals with the skills necessary to assess and manage potentially life-threatening conditions in pediatric patients. It covers a range of topics, including airway management, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) adapted for children, use of medications in emergencies, and effective communication within a pediatric healthcare setting. This training is essential for medical professionals who work in emergency settings, intensive care units, and pediatric departments.
