A patient has had a large anterior myocardial infarction last month and developed a ventricular aneurysm. He now has episodes of ventricular tachycardia that are not prevented or converted with antidysrhythmic agents. An implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) is implanted. Four days after surgery he develops ventricular tachycardia. The ICD has delivered three shocks but has not converted the rhythm. He is pulseless and apneic. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is in progress. What is the priority action now? Defibrillate A. Administer epinephrine IV. B. Administer amiodarone. C. Defibrillate. D. Reset the ICD. A 28-year-old woman is admitted to the critical care unit from the emergency department with a diagnosis of asthma. Her initial arterial blood gases on a 28% Venturi mask are as follows: pH 7.48 PaCO2 30 mm Hg HCO3 24 mEq/L PaO2 64 mm Hg C. pH 7.40, PaCO2 40 mm Hg, PaO2 62 mm Hg The case study shows stage II asthma. Option c shows stage III asthma. The patient is still breathing at a fast rate, but carbon dioxide is starting to be retained as evidenced by the increase of the PaCO2 into normal range. Options a and b are still stage II. Option d shows a respiratory alkalosis with a metabolic acidosis because you would have expected the pH to be in an alkalotic range with the PaCO2 of 30.

A. pH 7.48, PaCO2 30 mm Hg, PaO2 68 mm Hg B. pH 7.46, PaCO2 32 mm Hg, PaO2 61 mm Hg C. pH 7.40, PaCO2 40 mm Hg, PaO2 62 mm Hg D. pH 7.39, PaCO2 30 mm Hg, PaO2 60 mm Hg A patient experiencing C. alcohol withdrawal Illusion syndrome describes the swirls in the wallpaper as An illusion is a misperception or misinterpretation of being worms.
