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.

A.
Administer epinephrine

Defibrillate.
