Transform Your Expertise in Neonatal Cardiac Care
Enhance your expertise in neonatal cardiac care with the NRP Cardiac course, designed for NRP Advanced Providers to effectively manage critical congenital heart diseases (CCHDs) at birth.
This eLearning course, featuring eight specialized modules and True Adaptive learning technology, equips healthcare professionals with the skills to provide optimal care for newborns with CCHD.
Responding to CCHDs at Birth
Congenital heart defects affect nearly 40,000 infants in the U.S. annually.1 Building on the foundation of the Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) algorithm, this course guides providers in recognizing when standard care pathways apply and when modifications are needed, based on a known diagnosis of CCHD. It combines broad foundational knowledge with in-depth insights into specific cardiac anomalies and includes just-in-time training to prepare healthcare professionals for effective delivery room management. The goal is to ensure readiness to provide timely, appropriate, and high-quality care for newborns with CCHD immediately after birth.
Focused Training Modules featuring Advanced Learning Technologies
Tailored for NRP Advanced Providers involved in neonatal resuscitation, the course is especially valuable for those looking to expand their expertise in caring for neonates with CCHDs at birth. Delivered in an eLearning format, the NRP Cardiac course delivers eight modules focusing on six specific CCHDs, fetal to neonatal transition, and the approach to undiagnosed CCHD:
- Fetal to Neonatal Transition in Congenital Heart Diseases
- Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS)
- Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF)
- Transposition of the Great Arteries (d-TGA)
- Ebstein’s Anomaly
- Congenital Complete Heart Block (CHB)
- Tachydysrhythmia Including Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT)
- Undiagnosed Congenital Heart Diseases in the Delivery Room
Learners must have an active NRP Advanced Provider status as a prerequisite to the NRP Cardiac course.
