Our goal in the video was to primarily show the operation of the defibrillator unit. Appreciate the suggestions though.

I've had a cardioversion for Afib Aflutter and SVT The first episode of SVT I had I was 16 years old then it scared the shit out of me and a cardioversion SUCKS I've also had a cardioversion with adenosine

So sorry you had to experience going through all of this. But on the flip side, you’re still alive and here to tell about it! Certainly not a procedure one wants to go through without some sedation!

Why is a pulse needed when we use synchronized cardioverion but when we defibrillate we dont want a pulse?
@elliottfireice43945 ай бұрын
Why is synchronised cardioversion used with a pulse? If a patient is in SVT, the machine will shock the patient on the R wave which is critical to avoid cardiac arrest. With defibrillation the shock is delivered at any point in the QRS cycle because the patient won't have a pulse. Therfore it doesn't matter in that situation

When you said you will use defibrillation if patient has no pulse, you meant if it's PEA? Defibrillation wont work if heart is in asystole state.
@patvaughn99873 жыл бұрын
No, defibrillation will only be performed in pulseless ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation...there is not a pulse generated in either of those rhythms. PEA will not generate a pulse, either, and should NOT be defibrillated. Hope that clarifies.

I’m going to point you towards the American Heart Association and their Advanced Cardiac Life Support course for more detailed explanations. Their guidelines are followed through much of the world. You will find what you need there.

I think I get what your saying.. If a person is in V-tech or V-fib you can still shock without a pulse because they have a shockable rhythm in the heart. With Asystole you can't shock because there is no rhythm what so ever in the heart and also is pulse less ( at this point your best bet is epi to jump start the heart again and hope for a shockable rhythm).

When you went to 7 joules you were choosing a different charge and it stops charging so it didn't work on the last shock because you never pressed charge but overall good video

Vtach , prior to that was adenosine ordered, you defib with no pulse was the rhythm converted to Vfib? Was epinephrine and amiodarone prepared?
@francishubertovasquez2139 Жыл бұрын
You cardiovert because there's a pulse, then 85/40 unstable then why not defibrillate, what to sync in the r- wave when there's a chaotic rhythm, ah ok later you said there's still a pulse so cardiovert though not converted to normal rhytm after joules increase. Later you defibrillate hemodynamic and pulse assessment. Was CPR done and epinephrine ordered? How about Et tube , capnography and oxygen via bagging?

You need to be very careful with this defib. It is poorly designed and promotes use errors, that you really don't want during a code. If you are looking to buy a defib, I would stay away from this model. Some of its problems are shown in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKq0kJScaKiprac
