What might happen if you touch the victim when AED is delivering a shock?
If you touch the victim while an AED is delivering a shock, you too will receive a shock.
What is NSVT?
This is likely an abbreviation for "non-sustained ventricular tachycardia" Sustained VT (or simply VT) is a fatal rhythm where the ventricles are essentially quivering instead of pumping. The heart is not able to pump in this rhythm, and unless the patient is shocked out of it (defibrillated) or brought out of it with drugs, death will follow shortly. NSVT is a short run of VT where the heart brings itself out of the rhythm without outside intervention.
How man jolts can an AED deliver?
The number of shocks will depend on the results of the AED analyzing the patient. It will vary on the situation and protocols set up in the AED. You will not be able to shock a patient until determined by the AED a shockable rhythm exists.
Why do people need a pace maker?
If a person's natural heart rate (sinus rhythm) is too slow then the heart will not be able to pump enough blood to meet the needs of their body. A pacemaker is a small implantable device that can increase the heart rate by using an electrical stimulus to cause the heart muscle to contract. The pacemaker can be programed to stimulate the heart at a desired rate to increase the heart rate and enable cardiac output to be sufficient.
What if your heart had no nerve tissue?
If your heart had no nerve tissue, it would not be able to initiate or regulate its own contractions. Nerve tissue plays a crucial role in transmitting electrical signals that control the rhythm and rate of the heartbeat. Without nerve tissue, the heart would not be able to respond to changes in the body's needs or maintain a consistent and coordinated heartbeat, which could lead to serious health complications or even death.
Why can an electric shock interfere with the body's functioning?
An electric shock can interfere with the body's functioning because it disrupts the normal electrical signals that control various bodily functions. The shock can cause muscles to contract involuntarily, disrupt the heart's rhythm, and potentially damage tissues and organs. Severe shocks can lead to serious complications or even be fatal.
What would happen if a heart didn't have nerve tissue?
If a heart lacked nerve tissue, it would be unable to regulate its rhythm and respond to the body’s changing demands effectively. The heart would likely beat in a disorganized manner, leading to inefficient blood circulation. This could result in severe complications, including heart failure, as the heart wouldn't be able to coordinate contractions properly or adjust to physiological changes. Overall, the absence of nerve tissue would severely impair the heart's functionality.
What is the meaning of amazing?
The meaning is able to cause amazement or shock.
How do you remove the front lower shock bolt form inside the coil spring on a 1963 Thunderbird?
UNDERNEATH THE UPPER CONTROL ARM ON YOUR BIRD YOU WILL FIND THREE NUTS. REMOVE THESE AND THE SHOCK WILL BE ABLE TO BE REMOVED THROUGH THE TOP OF THE SHOCK TOWER. ONCE THE SHOCK IS OUT, YOU CAN REMOVE THE LOWER SHOCK BOLT FROM THE BRACKET.
Why did blues influence other music?
because the rhythm and the beat was able to turn into rock music
What is pharmacologic management of ventricular fibrillation?
Patients who experience ventricular fibrillation (which is disorganized electrical activity occuring within the lower chambers of the heart) are resuscitated via defibrillation. Defibrillation consists of an electric shock usually delivered via conductive pads or paddles. It essentially resets all the cells of the heart in hopes that when electrical activity resumes, it will be organized and able to pump blood. Untreated, all ventricular fibrillation is fatal, and patients who are at known risk for experiencing this arrythmia can be provided with an implanted cardioverter defibrillator, or ICD. This is a device which is placed under the skin of the upper torso and connected to the heart with a wire. It contains a computer which will monitor the patient's heart at all times and deliver a shock if recognizes ventricular fibrillation or a related rhythm called ventricular tachycardia. There are also certain drugs, such as amiodarone and lidocaine, which can be given to a patient at known risk for ventricular fibrillation in order to make it less likely. These drugs usually work by making the cell membranes of the cells of the heart more electrically stable. Many of the same drugs can also be given if defibrillation is initially unsuccessful in order to help make it more effective. It should be noted that there is a very short window of time to treat ventricular fibrillation (permenant brain damage begins to occur approximately 4-6 minutes after the onset of the arrythmia), and the prognosis for these patients is generally very poor if they are not defibrillated immediately and transferred to a critical care setting.
What has happened to the boy who couldn't bounce his ball in rhythm?
The boy who couldn't bounce his ball in rhythm practiced regularly and eventually improved his timing and coordination. He may have sought help from a coach or friend for guidance. With persistence and dedication, he was able to bounce the ball in rhythm.
