What is VTACH?

Ventricular tachycardia, VT or V-Tach is an extremely rapid heartbeat that starts in the ventricles.


How should one treat ventricular fibrillation (VFib) effectively?

Ventricular fibrillation (VFib) should be treated promptly with defibrillation to restore normal heart rhythm. This involves delivering an electric shock to the heart using a defibrillator. Immediate CPR should also be initiated to help maintain blood flow until medical help arrives. It is important to act quickly to increase the chances of survival for someone experiencing VFib.


What does fibrillation mean in medical terms?

Fibrillation is a medical term meaning an interruption of electrical activities in the heart. The most common types of fibrillation are atrial fibrillation and ventricular relation, termed as AFib and VFib, respectively.


What is amiodarone dose for stable vtach with pulse?

150mg IV infusion over 10minutes. May repeat once in 10 minutes.


What is the term for three or more premature ventricular complexes occurring in a row at a rate of more than 100 beats a minute?

that looks like 2 different things. 4 or more pvc's is considered "a run of vtach" the other part would depend on the rhythm before the vtach... ex. sinus tachycardia with a run of vtach


Can you shock vtach with a pulse?

Yes. But it is advised only when the patient is unstable. If the patient is stable you need to consider anti-dysthymia meds. This is state protocol specific but some examples include Amioderone, Lidocaine, and Adenosine are the few that are in the national curriculum.


Woman collapses after 10 min paramedics arrive start CPR monitor shows vfib what should you do first?

Continue CPR for 2 minutes> Reassess rhythm> If VF, Shock> Continue CPR for 2 min> Intubate> IV> EPI 1mg and so on.


What is abnormal fluttering of the heart beat?

A heart flutter could meen palpitation, which is what a random fluttering of the heart is, or could mean an illness such as heart diesise. It all depends on how old you are, if you are young it could just mean palpatation which shouldn't really give you any harm, but if your an older person it well could mean an illness, however it could just mean palpatation even if you are an older person. But what ever it is I would have it checked at the doctors incase of anything. They would normally take your blood pressure ect. I have little flutters now and then and I'm young but I wouldn't worry about anything.


What is a good Example of when CPR is needed?

Resuscitation is only needed when a heart goes into ventricular fibrillation (Vfib). Many people think it's also needed when a heart goes into asystole (the well-known flat line), but it will not work then.


Which statements tells why it is important to give early defibrillation to an adult?

From the AHA related link: Many sudden cardiac arrest victims are in ventricular fibrillation (VF). VF is an abnormal, chaotic heart rhythm that prevents the heart from pumping blood. You must defibrillate a victim immediately to stop VF and allow a normal heart rhythm to resume. The sooner you provide defibrillation with the AED, the better the victim's chances of survival. Several studies have documented the effects of time to defibrillation and the effects of bystander CPR on survival from SCA. For every minute that passes between collapse and defibrillation, survival rates from witnessed VF SCA decrease 7 to 10 percent if no CPR is provided. When bystander CPR is provided, the decrease in survival rates is more gradual and averages 3 to 4 percent per minute from collapse to defibrillation. CPR can double or triple survival from witnessed SCA at most intervals to defibrillation.
