1. ventricular tachy- Rate: 100-250bpm
cardia Regular rhythm
P wave: None
PR: None
QRS: Wide, bizarre, >0.12s
ACTION:
- 1st: Check pulse!!!
VT w/ pulse = Cardioversion
VT w/o pulse = CPR -> Defibrillation
- 2nd: Epinephrine
2. ventricular fibril- Rate: None
lation Irregular rhythm
P wave: None
PR: None
QRS: squiggles
ACTION:
- 1st: CPR for 2min
- 2nd: Defibrillation
- 3rd: Epinephrine q 3-5 minutes
3. idioventricular Rate: 40bpm
rhythm Regular rhythm
P wave: None
PR: Can't measure
