ventricular tachycardia is a shockable rythym then,check pules and the patient needs to be shocked. manage the H's and T's
Check Pulse,
If pulselessVT/VF follow cardiac arrest protocol.
I will check for the pulse. I should assess whether the patient has pulse.
pulse disappears with the onset of VF.note the complete absence of QRScomplexes.clinical response to attemted DEFIBRILATION,ADRENERGIC AGENTS or antiarrythmics.a rhytm pattern is difficult to distinguishfrom that of ASYSTOLE
Check Pulse, If pulseless VT, Give the second shock, 2mins CPR, Epineprine 1mg IV, Consider advance airway capnography/ tracheal intubation, then check the rhythm.
If the rhythm is still pVT/VF, Give the third shock, 2mins CPR, Amiodarone 300mg IV, then check the rythm.
1. If the rhytm change to VT after delivering 1 shock and 2 minutes of cpr then you should check for pulse.
A) If there is no pulse (PVT) deliver 1 shock then continue CPR.
B) if there is pulse, assess the patients Airway, Breathing and Circulation. Check for hypotension, altered mental status, chest discomfort, signs of shock and heart failure.
check pulse first because there's a change in rhythm , if no pulse then do CPR immediately.
Check the carotid oulse, monitor the cardiac rhythm continue CPR and prepaare for possible defibrillation when condition becomes worse.
for VF & VT, shock must be given
