Management with Pulse VT: If hemodynamically stable, follow ACLS

, Definition 2 of 21
Atrial rhythm is regular
Ventricular rhythm is irregular
Atrial rate exceeds ventricular rate
PR interval progressively but only slightly, longer with each cycle until
QRS complex disappears (dropped beat)
PR Interval shorter after dropped beat.
Clinical manifestations include vertigo, weakness, and an irregular pulse.
This may be caused by Inferior wall MI, cardiac surgery, acute rheumatic
fever, vagal stimulation. Treatment includes correction of underlying
cause, atropine or temporary pacemaker for symptomatic bradycardia
and discontinuation of digoxin if appropriate.

Second Degree AV Block Mobitz I
First degree atrioventricular (av) block
(Wenckebach )
Third Degree AV Block (Complete Heart
First Degree AV Block
Block)
Definition 3 of 21
Atrial rhythm regular

No relation between P waves and QRS complexes
