About this listen
Remembering all the different energy setting needed for synchronized cardioversion and defibrillation used to be confusing for a lot of people.
Defibrillators can be broken down into three basic categories:
1. Automated External Defibrillator (AED);
2. Biphasic defibrillators; and
3. Monophasic defibrillators.
Use of an AED to rapidly deliver a shock.
Advantages & use of Biphasic defibrillators.
Energy for monophasic defibrillators to defibrillate V-Fib or pulseless V-Tach.
AEDs must not be used on patients with a pulse.
Cardioversion of patients in unstable SVT or V-Tach with a pulse using biphasic vs monophasic monitor/defibrillators.
Team safety when performing synchronized cardioversion.
Energy needed to cardiovert unstable patients with a narrow vs wide complex tachycardia.
**American Cancer Society (ACS) Fundraiser
This is the seventh year that I'm participating in Men Wear Pink to increase breast cancer awareness and raise money for the American Cancer Society's life-saving mission.
I hope you'll consider contributing.
Every donation makes a difference in the fight against breast cancer!
