I got a little confused at around 2:24 when you stated we can give acetylcholine to increase the heart rate. Isn't that what atropine is doing bc acetyl is slowing it down?
How we increase the heart rate to increase acetyl choline level we know that in a parasympathetic nervous system the heart rate decreases dew to the activation of m2 receptors so if the style choline level increasing the heart rate decreased? May be you correct this point
Fun story, in the Gulf War they used a nerve agent (don't know which one) while raiding a compound. It was in a can that looked like a huge tin of beans. Immediately we can't breathe, slobbering, coughing up massive amounts of lung butter, didn't know wtf was going on. They stab you with atropine injector. What they don't tell you is that Atropine gives you (pretty much) the WORST instant panic attack. So if they can, (and they did) they'll stab you with a diazepam injector after that. Sore thighs save lives.
You should also state that there is ophthalmic atropine that is used when someone is dying. It is what we use. So yes look at your mar. Because it can be either way
Sir, you imply that "ophthalmic atropine" is a different drug formula than the atropine the speaker discussed when it is used in terminal care to reduce respiratory secretions. To be clear, atropine is atropine. The main reason you would see it on the MAR as "ophthalmic atropine" is that the only FDA approved therapeutic use for atropine is via the ophthalmic route, even though it is routinely used via the sublingual route in terminal care for reasons mentioned by the speaker. Take care. Reference Shinkjo, T. Okada, M. (2013). Journal of Palliative Medicine. Atropine Eyedrops for death rattle in a terminal cancer patient.

I just want to say thank you for all that you do with your channel!!!!
at the 2:24, "we can give acetylcholine to increase our heart rate", I think you mean atropine instead of acetylcholine?
Thank you Jon. I really appreciate all your teaching. Thank you so much for sharing your great knowledge and special talent with us.
WOW, this was a great video. Thank you NRSNG
very educative
Great video , not too complex

Thanks!
Thank you :)
Don’t forget the right to refuse
Thank you for this! Would appreciate if you could talk a bit more slowly in your future videos. :)
Thank you for the feedback!
You can slow the video down, you know.
