Question 1 of 19
1. Question
Scenario Data: A 52-year-old male is admitted to the cardiac telemetry unit where you work. He was admitted for episodes of syncope. About 90 minutes after admission, the patient starts to complain of chest discomfort. He has no cardiac history and he is a PPD smoker. Interventions given so far: Telemetry monitor, O2 at 2L per NC, IV started on admission.
Scenario data:
Skin: pale/cool/diaphoretic
Cardio: weak radial pulses, BP (not obtainable)
Resp: CTA Bilaterally from apex to base, RR 26
CNS: alert, oriented, and anxious
Monitor: (see below)What is the patient's rhythm?
CorrectIncorrect -
Question 2 of 19
2. Question
You recognize this VT as an impending rhythm, and you call for the crash cart to be brought to the room. Before the crash cart arrives, the pt. becomes unresponsive and has no pulse. What should you do now?
