In any actual emergency, users must activate local emergency response systems and follow applicable laws, institutional policies, clinical protocols, emergency procedures, scope-of-practice limits, and directions from qualified local medical personnel or authorities.

User Assumes Full Responsibility

The user remains solely responsible for independently verifying all information before relying on it in any clinical, nonclinical, educational, professional, employment, credentialing, licensing, volunteer, bystander, or real-world setting.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, HrtX24 shall not be responsible for any injury, death, adverse outcome, delayed care, incorrect care, failure to act, inappropriate action, misinterpretation, misapplication, reliance, non-reliance, or other consequence arising from any user’s use of, or inability to use, HrtX24 materials.

By using HrtX24, the user knowingly and voluntarily assumes all risks associated with the use, misuse, interpretation, application, misapplication, non-application, or reliance upon any educational material, example, recommendation, algorithm, quiz, assessment, certificate, statement, or information provided through HrtX24.

The user understands that real-world clinical and emergency situations are unpredictable and may involve serious harm, injury, disability, death, property loss, professional consequences, employment consequences, licensing consequences, or legal consequences.

The user voluntarily accepts full responsibility for all such risks and agrees that HrtX24 is not responsible for how the user acts, fails to act, performs, responds, communicates, documents, or makes decisions in any real-life clinical or nonclinical situation.

HrtX24 strives to provide useful, clinically relevant, evidence-informed educational content. However, HrtX24 does not warrant or guarantee that any content is accurate, complete, current, uninterrupted, error-free, universally accepted, clinically appropriate for every situation, or suitable for every user, employer, institution, jurisdiction, or patient-care setting.

HrtX24 reserves the right to update, revise, replace, remove, modify, expand, or discontinue course materials, quizzes, assessments, policies, course names, descriptions, prices, features, certificates, and website content at any time, with or without notice.

Users are solely responsible for independently confirming current standards, applicable requirements, and appropriate use before relying on HrtX24 content.

Guideline-Informed but Independently Developed

HrtX24 course materials are independently developed and may be informed by broadly recognized resuscitation science, published consensus materials, educational principles, physician expertise, and other professional sources.

References to current or recent science, international recommendations, emergency cardiovascular care principles, or consensus-based practices are intended only to describe the educational foundation of the material. Such references do not claim formal adoption, endorsement, authorization, exact replication, or approval by any third-party organization.

Statements that HrtX24 materials are evidence-informed or guideline-informed mean only that HrtX24 independently reviews and adapts educational content in light of available science and professional education principles. They do not mean that HrtX24 is the official publisher of any guideline or that HrtX24 courses are identical to, interchangeable with, or officially equivalent to any third-party course, branded training pathway, proprietary algorithm set, or completion credential.

Clinical Oversight and Physician Contributors

HrtX24 educational materials may be developed, reviewed, or informed by physicians and clinical oversight contributors, including Dr. Pradnya Brijmohan Bhattad, Dr. Eitezaz Mahmood, Dr. R. Keith Kramer, and other contributors or reviewers.

Clinical oversight means educational review and support for general clinical relevance, organization, clarity, and instructional quality. Clinical oversight does not mean:

  • supervision of users;
  • supervision of patient care;
  • direct individualized instruction;
  • certification of user competence;
  • guarantee of user performance;
  • endorsement of user actions;
  • assumption of responsibility for user conduct;
  • assumption of liability for user actions or omissions;
  • creation of any physician-patient relationship;
  • provision of patient-specific medical advice.

No physician, advisor, reviewer, author, contributor, contractor, or representative affiliated with HrtX24 is responsible for how any user interprets, relies upon, applies, misapplies, or fails to apply HrtX24 content.

Certificates of Completion

HrtX24 may issue certificates of completion after successful completion of specified course requirements, quizzes, assessments, or educational activities.

An HrtX24 certificate reflects completion of an HrtX24 educational program only. It does not represent or guarantee:

  • government licensure;
  • board certification;
  • employer certification;
  • hospital credentialing approval;
  • continuing medical education credit;
  • continuing nursing education credit;
  • CE, CME, CNE, or CEU credit;
  • third-party accreditation;
  • clinical competence;
  • authorization to practice;
  • authorization to provide patient care;
  • acceptance by any employer, hospital, school, agency, licensing body, staffing agency, insurer, credentialing office, or institution.

Users are solely responsible for determining whether an HrtX24 certificate meets their intended purpose before purchase, enrollment, reliance, or submission to any third party.

Employer, Institutional, and Regulatory Acceptance

Acceptance of online ACLS, BLS, CPR, life support, or related educational certificates varies widely by employer, institution, school, state, country, licensing authority, credentialing office, staffing agency, recruiter, insurer, healthcare facility, academic program, government body, military program, and role.

Requirements may differ by location, specialty, scope of practice, contract, employer policy, accreditation rule, insurer requirement, internal credentialing rule, or date.

HrtX24 does not guarantee that any certificate, course, quiz, assessment, completion record, receipt, or training material will be accepted by any employer, recruiter, hospital, clinic, academic program, government body, licensing authority, professional board, staffing agency, insurer, or institution.

Users should verify requirements directly with the relevant employer, institution, or authority before purchasing, enrolling, relying upon, submitting, or using any HrtX24 course or certificate.

No statement on the HrtX24 website, in marketing materials, in support communications, in emails, or in course content shall be interpreted as a universal guarantee of acceptance.

No Continuing Education Credit Unless Expressly Stated

Unless HrtX24 expressly states otherwise in clear written language on a specific course page, HrtX24 courses do not provide CME, CE, CNE, CEU, state-mandated credit, board credit, formal licensure credit, mandatory employer credit, or any other regulated continuing education benefit.

Users are solely responsible for determining whether any HrtX24 course satisfies their professional, academic, licensing, credentialing, institutional, or compliance purpose.

User Conduct and Appropriate Use

By using HrtX24, the user agrees to:

  • provide accurate registration, account, course, and payment information;
  • review all applicable course descriptions before purchase;
  • verify employer, institutional, licensing, or credentialing requirements before relying on any course or certificate;
  • use HrtX24 materials only for lawful and legitimate educational purposes;
  • avoid misrepresenting HrtX24 certificates as government-issued, employer-issued, society-issued, accredited, or third-party-issued credentials where they are not;
