1st strip is in response to the first .5 of atropine. Pt responded briefly, but the junctional rhythm was refractory and the pt then became hypotensive. Fast patches were placed in prep for TCP, but a second .5 of atropine was given. The pt then converted. His skin pinked up and he became normotensive.
