@ZahoorAhmed1450 If it’s fascicular VT - verapamil

If it’s RVOT-VT - adenosine

Otherwise, give transdermal electronicillin

@DrPharmDMDTh This finding on EKG is called ventricular pre-excitation.

WPW is a syndrome which means 2+ findings must be present together. A dx of WPW requires the EKG finding shown PLUS palpitations OR syncope OR documented SVT. This finding on EKG alone = ventricular pre-excitation.

@thanh_neville That’s just FIRST dinner. Don’t forget about second dinner.

@jeffrey_vinocur Show your ophtho the 2 distances you need in focus: dist. to the monitor & dist. to your hands when working. Customize your lab glasses for that. You don’t need “standard near” and “standard far” (ie 14” and 20’). You probably need 20” and 5’.

@nickmmark @WesElyMD ET was released in summer 1982 meaning it was filmed in 1981.

Here is a 1981 article on bretylium…

Also, the first ACLS guidebook was released in 1975.

Also, evidence based medicine was first established in the mid 1980s.

🧵regarding the packing of cavities for hemostasis during surgery:

Here I will discuss why using a precise technique for packing for hemostasis is important, what happens when you don't use a precise technique, and a pointer about packing newly drained abscess cavities.

@Dallas_Holladay It’s not ER but I always wear 8 shoe covers when I put in a pacemaker or defibrillator (4 on each foot).

18 yo man, gets Holter ECG due to discreet palpitations. No syncope, no dizziness, no other symptoms of heart disease.
What would you do:
1. Permanent Pacemaker DDD
2. EPS
3. Nothing
