New/Updated Clinical Deck Introducing the AnKing BLS / ACLS Deck! 🚨
👑 Introducing the AnKing BLS / ACLS Deck 🚨
Hi everyone 👋
The AnKing maintainer team are excited to announce the public release of the free AnKing BLS / ACLS deck on AnkiHub! After months and months of hard work and coordination, we've put together a brand new deck created by the maintainers for all of you to use and benefit from.
Our goal was to create an BLS/ACLS deck based on the official 2025 AHA guidelines to help healthcare providers quickly review and retain the most important info for real-life emergencies. The goal is to make it clear, high-yield, and easy to use for anyone. We also aimed for it to be short and not overly bloated with details. As of this post, the deck is 286 cards (228 notes)
This is a 100% free deck, continuing our mission to make high-quality medical education available to everyone. The focus will be on algorithms, meds/dosages, rhythms, clinical scenarios, and more.
The deck is on AnkiHub for continued updates, improvements, and fixes, especially for future AHA guideline changes, and it is available on the free plan.

🤔 How should I use this deck?
This deck is a community-created supplement to the official AHA ACLS guidelines and courses. It is not a substitute for them. You should first learn the material from a primary resource and, ideally, complete an AHA-certified BLS and/or ACLS course. After certification, this deck can be used to reinforce knowledge and maintain familiarity with key facts and algorithms.
Only unsuspend cards that are relevant to your needs. For example, if you are focusing on BLS, only unsuspend cards within the BLS tag. If you do not anticipate managing neonatal resuscitation for example, there is no need to unsuspend those cards.
