.
What is this rhythm and how is it treated?
Ventricular fibrillation
CPR, Amiodarone, Defibrilate, Epi
What is this rhythm and how is it treated?
Asystole
CPR & Epinephrine
What is this rhythm? And how is it treated?
,PVC or premature ventricular contraction
Treat the underlying cause:
1. Hypoxemia (o2)
2. Ischemia (12 lead to confirm)
3. Electrolyte imbalance (Mg+ or K+ replacement)
What is this rhythm? And how is it treated?
Afib
"control the rate and anticoagulate"
Synchronized Cardioversion and anticoagulation
What is this rhythm and how is it treated if unstable?
Give an antidysrhythmic (amiodarone)
Cardizem/Diltiazem
, We don't defib because we are worried a clot has formed in the appendages which
will travel to the brain or lungs when shocked
How is stable Afib treated?
Afib RVR
This is Afib plus tachycardia and it is treated as unstable Afib
Cardiovert
What is this rhythm? And how is it treated?
30%
Ventricular Tachycardia
CPR, Defibrilate, amiodarone, epi
What percent of cardiac output is lost due to Afib and loss of "atrial kick"?
This is a calcium channel blocker it decreases BP & decreases HR it is often given
to help reduce the HR in Afib RVR along with Heparin/Warfarin
What does Cardizem/Diltiazem do?
1. Protamine
2. Vitamin K
3. If there is an active bleed or they are going to need surgery
