This medication always interests me! Patient came in with a HR in the 240's and asymptomatic!


STUDENTS let's play.... Patient One: What is this rhythm? What clinical findings and procedures did we do in the field prior to hospital? How do you think the patient(s) presented? What medication(s) did we give? Dosage(s)? Patient Two: when said medication(s) from earlier this week didn't work on patient two what is the next step we can perform in the field to return the heart to a much more appropriate rate/rhythm? What other unique things can we try for these patients? If you haven't learned anything by the end of this post alway manually feel a pulse. What a shocking week I had. Eh?
