    Introduction: Cardiopulmonary arrest (CA) is a prevalent condition associated with a high mortality rate. Thus, it is important that medical students receive adequate training for the treatment of this condition. Objective: To compare the "Advanced Cardiovascular Emergency Training" (TECA) course with the "Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support" (ACLS) course in the training of CA management to medical students. Methods: 119 last graduation year medical students were included. The students were divided into 2 groups: TECA group consisted of 56 students who participated in the TECA course and 63 students in the ACLS course, named ACLS group. Both groups performed a mannequin simulated CA care before and after participating in each course and a multiple choice test after training. Performance in simulated care was compared through structured assessment score, time to onset of chest compression and time to perform defibrillation after collapse, as well as the number of correct answers in the multiple choice assessment. Results: After training, TECA group presented statistical higher grade than the ACLS group in the evaluation of the simulated case attendance (10,0 points vs 9,0 points; p<0,001). There was no statistical difference between the groups in time to onset of chest compression (19,0 sec vs 19,5 sec; p = 0,500) and time to defibrillation (48,0 sec vs 48,0 sec; p = 0,740). TECA group students had a better performance in questions related to acute heart failure treatment (4,0 vs 3,0; p < 0,001). There was no significant difference in the number of correct answers on arrhythmia, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, acute myocardial infarction and stroke. Conclusions: TECA course provided greater adherence to CA care protocol, without prejudice to the time to start chest compression or time to defibrillation. In addition, it added training in acute heart failure management.
