same like in this video (but with meds)
-
Because you had SVT and they needed to chemically cardiovert you
-
I went to the hospital with a heart rate of about 200 yesterday, and was given adenosine immediately? Why would this be?
-
Very interesting video; thank you
-
Great video, thanks for posting!
@tayman1975...this video would feel like a vibration; if your heart was really "vibrating" for 5 minutes as in VFib, as also seen in this video, you would not be feeling that for very long at all! :) @usmcwifey9609: awesome, DDs are cool. I don't "need" to know them, but then again, I like that kind of stuff, and I suppose it never hurts to know it. Thanks!

@myself Continuing on... Order (cont):
Doctor: Well, you had an SVT, then you fibrillated, then you had a slow heart, then you're here!
-
Order:
Supra-V. Tach
V. fib (not good, shock him again)
Sinus Bradycardia (is he conscious?)
Sinus regular (Hello, YAWN what DEEP BREATH in the heck BREATHE OUT happened there?)
-
Mine felt twice as fast as this. Is this even possible. It just felt like a vibration for almost 5 minutes straight.
-
is that tachycardia btw im not a doctor im training atg the age of 11
-
es grave esto?
Treatment for hemodynamically unstable patients with SVT (with pulses) is "immediate" syncronized cardioversion. Valsalva/vagal maneuvers are treatment that is "attempted" for "stable" patients. In which case if vagals do not work, adenosine is the next appropriate intervention per current ACLS guidelines.
Electricity is not a bad thing.......its a good thing...on the right patient.
