About the AHA PALS Provider Exam

AHA PALS is a pediatric emergency-care course for healthcare professionals. The instructor-led pathway requires an open-resource written exam at 84% or higher, infant and child BLS skills, and two core-case scenarios: one cardiac and one respiratory or shock. HeartCode uses adaptive cognitive learning followed by hands-on skills verification under its selected delivery pathway.

Exam sponsor: American Heart Association (AHA). The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.

Yes. The game is free to play with no sign-up. Signing in adds AI explanations for any term.

How do the AHA-PALS vocabulary games work?

There are 4 games built on 20 AHA-PALS terms. In Guess the Term, a clue describes one term and you have six tries to spell it, with green, yellow and gray letters showing how close you are. In Term Match, six terms appear as colored tiles; swap neighbors to line up three or more of the same term, and each match shows what the term means. In Term Pairs, twelve face-down cards hide six pairs of terms; flip two at a time to find each pair, and every pair you find shows what the term means. In Term Search, five terms hide in a grid of letters, reading across, down or diagonally; drag across a term to circle it, and each term you find shows what it means.

Where do the AHA-PALS terms come from?

OpenExamPrep researched each term from the American Heart Association (AHA) content outline and primary sources, listed under Sources on this page. The game is independent study material, not an official exam resource.

What is the AHA PALS exam passing score?

For the instructor-led PALS course, the written exam is open-resource and requires at least 84%. Completion also requires infant/child BLS skills and two core-case scenarios. HeartCode has a different adaptive cognitive-learning pathway.

How many questions are on the AHA PALS exam?

A fixed current question count is not stated in the 2025 public PALS instructor-led FAQ. The older 50-item description should not be treated as a universal count for every current pathway, particularly adaptive HeartCode. Confirm your course’s assessment instructions with its provider.
