Perform the initial assessment If the patient is in VTach or VFib, this IS a shockable rhythm Apply defibrillator pads (or paddles) and shock the patient with
There s a pretty interesting article circulating from CHEST demonstrating increased efficacy of lido in comparison to amiodarone for pulseless VTach/VFib arrest. (Wagner et. al, 2024) We re talking statistically significant odds ratios of 1.15 for achieving ROSC and 1.19 for overall survival, with numbers in the study to provide pretty
