Asystole - Cardiac arrest- has no rhythm or contraction of EKG Ventricular fibrillation (V-fib) - No discernable P, QRS or T waves noted. No pumping of blood at all and no depolarization of the ventricles V-Fib or Asytole - What are 2 emergencies would Epi be given in? Lidocaine - What are PVCs treated with? Versed, valium or propofol - What medications can be given for a severe case of hyperventilation? Ventricular tachycardia (V-tach) - Dysrhythmia with a rapid firing of an ectopic focus with a rate of 140-200 BPM but no P wave Amiodarone - What medication would be given for V-tach? Adenosine, Inderal or Esmolol - What are 3 different medications that could be given for SVT? Atropine - What medication would be given for symptomatic bradycardia?
