A 45 year old man had coronary artery stents placed two days ago.
Today, he is in severe distress and is reporting crushing chest
discomfort. He is pale, diaphoretic, and cool to the touch. His radial
pulse is very weak, blood pressure is 64 /40. his respiratory rate is 28
breaths/min, and oxygen sat of 89%. when applied comma the
cardiac monitor originally showed ventricular tachycardia, which
then quickly changed to ventricular fibrillation.
The patient has a return of spontaneous circulation and is not able to
follow commands. Which-post cardiac arrest care intervention do
you chose for the patient ?
A. extubate
B. administer epi
C. initiate targeted temperature management
D. check the glucose level

Definition
A 68 year old woman presents with Lightheadedness,
nausea, and chest discomfort. Your assessment finds her
awake and responsive but ill, pale, and grossly
diaphoretic. Her radial pulse is weak, thready and fast.
You are unable to obtain a blood pressure. She has no
obvious dependent edema, and her neck veins are flat.
Her lung sounds are equal, with moderate rails present
bilaterally. the cardiac monitor show the rhythm seen
here.
After your initial assessment of the patient, which
intervention should be performed next?
A. Endotracheal intubation
