Description

Designed for specialist clinicians who demand more, the ATACC SPEAR course takes resuscitation beyond ALS and to the very edge of current cardiac arrest knowledge. This immersive programme focuses on individualised, physiologically targeted resuscitation, equipping participants with the skills and insight needed to optimise the chances of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and survival, in the most challenging cases.
Highly practical by design, ATACC SPEAR places a strong emphasis on hands-on learning. Participants gain experience with endovascular monitoring and therapies during cardiac arrest, advanced-level simulation, and the leadership and team dynamics required to deliver high-performance resuscitation. The course utilises the latest equipment and technologies, including advanced monitoring, mechanical CPR devices, modern defibrillation strategies, ventilation techniques, and an introduction to extracorporeal CPR (ECPR).
Delivered by a world-leading faculty, the course integrates everything from current international resuscitation guidelines to the latest evidence, advanced cardiac arrest physiology, and critical care expertise. The result is what is widely regarded as the most advanced cardiac arrest resuscitation course currently available.
The ATACC SPEAR course runs over three intensive days. It begins by establishing core principles gold standard conventional resuscitation, then progressively builds complexity through extensive skills training, simulations, and team-based practice. The final day challenges participants with advanced, high-fidelity scenarios that reflect real-world complexity and decision-making at the limits of resuscitation care.
The course is proudly supported by the EVTM Society (Sweden), underscoring its commitment to cutting-edge, evidence-based resuscitation and critical care practice.
SPEAR is not for beginners, it is for specialist clinicians ready to redefine what is possible in cardiac arrest resuscitation.
