    I’m an ED nurse and I’ve learnt something I don’t think I’ll ever forget. I struggle with ECG interpretation and this truly helped me. Thank you

    What an excellent video. Although I am a business student, I caught an idea of how it is super important and a little bit of how the heart works! Thank you so much

    First time I've understood WPW at all! Haven't seen it in the field yet but now I know why adenosine is contraindicated

    I find this confusing because there was a guy in Afib with RVR and the cardiologist recommended that we give adenosine to slow it down.

    Not a medic, just saw adenasine stuff on UA-cam. Is it ok to take that as hyper thyroid patient? My heart rate is usually 120bpm constantly... And sometimes goes higher when I experience thyroid storms... This thing sound relaxing to me, can this fix my heart rate if I ask doctors to do?

    does atrial flutter+WPW also present as irregular wide tachycardia?

      Because the patient has WPW, you’ll still see what’s called the delta wave

    What if they don't have WPW, and your 12 lead confirms this. But they in afib with RVR in the 170s? I was told adenosine can be used to slow it down enough to confirm its not SVT.
    I love the clearity if your teaching btw.

      absolutely acceptable and common practice among ED doctors

    After watching several of these videos of adenosine administration, I have done a little bit of research. From what I see there are alternatives such as diltiazem that are just as effective without the horrible side effects. So far I haven’t seen any videos that address alternatives. I am hoping if I ever need this treatment, medical department will know about some of the alternatives because I would never submit to.adenosine if I were awake and aware. Thank you in advance.
