A patient is in cardiac Administering epinephrine as early as possible
arrest. The cardiac
monitor shows asystole.
In addition to providing
continuous high-quality
CPR, what is the other
priority intervention for
this patient?
,A patient has Tension Pneumothorax
experienced return of
spontaneous circulation
(ROSC) after cardiac
arrest. The healthcare
team is conducting a
secondary assessment to
determine the possible
cause of the patient's
cardiac arrest. Before the
arrest, the patient
exhibited jugular venous
distension, cyanosis,
apnea and
hyperresonance on
percussion. The patient
was also difficult to
ventilate during the
response. The team
would most likely suspect
which condition as the
cause?
A patient with suspected Within 1 hour of patient's arrival.
stroke arrives at the
emergency department.
The patient is diagnosed
with acute ischemic
stroke and is a candidate
for fibrinolytic therapy. To
achieve the best
outcomes, this therapy
should be initiated within
what time frame?
, A patient in the telemetry Third-degree AV block
unit is receiving
continuous cardiac
monitoring. The patient
has a history of
myocardial infarction. The
patient's ECG rhythm strip
is shown in the following
figure. The provider
interprets this strip as
indicating which
arrhythmia?
A 28-year-old pregnant Point-of-care ultrasound
patient who resides in
transitional housing
presents to the
emergency department
with complaints of feeling
feverish and very faint.
The patient tells the
emergency nurse that she
does not know when she
became pregnant. Upon
palpation, the fundus is
not at or above the
umbilicus. The patient's
condition quickly
deteriorates and she
goes into cardiac arrest. If
available and able to be
used without impeding or
delaying the resuscitation
effort, what diagnostic
tool could be used to
guide decision-making in
the care of this patient?
