Adult Bradycardia With Pulse
Drag Graphics to their proper positions.
Assess appropriateness for clinical condition.
Heart rate typically < 50/min if bradyarrhythmia.
Persistent bradyarrhythmia causing:
- Hypotension?
- Acutely altered mental status?
- Signs of shock?
- Ischemic chest discomfort?
- Acute heart failure?
Atropine
If atropine ineffective:
- Transcutaneous Pacing
- Dopamine infusion
- Epinephrine infusion
OR
OR
Consider:
- Expert consultation
- Transvenous pacing
Identify and treat underlying cause
- Maintain patent airway; assist breathing as necessary
- Oxygen (if hypoxemic)
- Cardiac monitor to identify rhythm; monitor blood pressure and oximetry
- IV Access
- 12-Lead EGG id available don't delay therapy
