What is an ACLS ambulance?
An ACLS ambulance (Advanced Cardiac Life Support ambulance) is equipped for advanced cardiac emergency protocol — the highest level of cardiac intervention readiness for transport. It is chosen for patients at risk of or in cardiac arrest, or high-acuity cardiac conditions needing advanced intervention during transfer.

|---|---|
| Cardiac arrest risk / peri-arrest | Full ICU continuous care config → ICU |
| High-acuity cardiac emergencies | Cardiac-focused monitoring (not full ACLS) → CCU |
| Advanced airway + defibrillation readiness | Advanced pre-hospital (not cardiac-specific) → ALS |
| dvanced cardiac medication protocol | Stable comfort transfer → AC / Non-AC |
| Hospital-to-hospital critical cardiac transfer | Basic support → BLS |
| Inter-district high-acuity moves |
