CardioPASS CE is an on-demand cardiology review course that deliver 11 hours of NREMT-accepted continuing education. It covers cardiac anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, ACLS, & 12-lead EKG interpretation.
Much of the content in CardioPASS is also included in our Paramedic NREMT NCCP 30-Hour Refresher Course, specifically within the cardiology sections.
We created CardioPASS as a standalone, lower-cost option for students and providers who only want to focus on cardiology—without purchasing the full 30-hour refresher or needing the full 30 hours of continuing education it provides. It offers more flexibility, targeted learning, and affordable access to essential EKG interpretation, cardiac pharmacology, and pathophysiology content.
🔍 Note: This course touches on 4-lead EKG interpretation as it applies to ACLS. If you're looking for a deeper dive into 4-lead EKGs from the ground up, we recommend ourEKG Interpretation: The Basics and Beyond Course!
If you already own the 30-hour refresher, you do not need to purchase this course unless you want easier access to just the cardiology material.
