The resuscitation team suspects that Wide-complex ventricular rhythm or tall, pointed
hyperkalemia is the cause of T waves
cardiac arrest in a patient brought
to the emergency department.
Which finding on a 12-lead ECG
would confirm this suspicion?
A patient with dyspnea and a Atropine 0.5 mg every 4 to 5 minutes
change in mental status arrives at
the emergency department. The
healthcare team completes the
necessary assessments and begins
to care for the patient, including
initiating cardiac monitoring, pulse
oximetry, supplemental oxygen and
vascular access. The team reviews
the patient's ECG rhythm strip, as
shown in the following figure. Which
agent would the team most likely
administer?
, A patient experiencing an unstable Administration of an epinephrine infusion
bradyarrhythmia does not respond
to atropine or transcutaneous
pacing. Which intervention would
the healthcare provider use next?
A patient's ECG reveals a 1. "I've had a terrible cold with a horrible cough
tachyarrhythmia. The patient is and fever the past week."

assessment, which statement(s) by
the patient would the team
interpret as a possible contributing
cause?
A patient's ECG reveals a narrow Vagal maneuvers
QRS complex with a regular rhythm,
indicating a narrow-complex
supraventricular tachyarrhythmia.
The patient is hemodynamically
stable. Which intervention would be
initiated first?
A patient in the telemetry unit is Synchronized cardioversion
stable. Cardiac monitoring indicates
the patient has ventricular
tachycardia with a pulse. Further
assessment reveals that the
corrected QT interval is greater
than 0.46 seconds. Which treatment
would be appropriate at this time?
