In this next lesson we move on to talk about the American Heart Associations (AHA) ACLS algorithm for Tachycardia. Once again, their recommendations provide us a simplified and systematic approach to dealing with this emergency and knowing what to do here is something that you want to get down without having to think about it.

U R gifted
Your channel make me pass on PPW ALS thanks
Awesome!!
so much learnt in 8mins
Very good
Thank you!
Thanks 🙏❤️
You're welcome 😊
Could you explain to me why under the “wide QRS yes” it says if regular and monomorphic then consider adenosine? Is the “regular” talking about the QRS? Thank you!!
Great way to teach
Thank you!
Hey can you plz talk more on indications for amio? Guidelines have it in the algorithms but in any video I watch it seems it’s not widely used. Thanks!
Thanks.🌺
You're welcome!
thanks
You're welcome!
Awesome
New guide lines recommend adenosine 6mg 12mg only. Thanks this is great information
Ahhh yup, certainly missed that. I guess 6,12,12 is just too trained in my brain! Glad you liked the video and thanks for taking the time to leave a comment Craig.
@@ICUAdvantage you are welcome
😊 great
Nicely explained. You make it sound easy. Yet, I know it’s not.
Last semester of RN school. CRNA school next!
Really precious informations you have helped us with
Appreciating all the wonderful work you have done..
Thank you
Thank you so much for that!
Hi, I loved your video, and it was super helpful with the tachycardias. I was just wondering when you talked about the stable tachycardias from 5:11 - 6:00, you mentioned polymorphic tachycardia (Torsades), but polymorphic tachycardia would never be stable and would always be pulseless, right? Just wasn't sure why it was mentioned along with the stable tachycardias, but maybe I misunderstood something. Thank you! 👍🙂
Usually is unstable or pulseless, but have seen it stable for short periods before.
@@ICUAdvantage That's interesting! Thank you!
What's your favorite medications for sedation? And what's the dose?
Sedation for what purpose? It certainly depends...
Please I haven't heard you talk about ventricular fibrillation isn't it a type of tachyarrhythmia?
Thanks for your videos. You mentioned atropine is contraindicated with brady from a MI and TCP would be preferred. It seems that since the heart is contracting from the TCP the myocardium would also use O2. Is O2 consumption less when using TCP, and if yes, is there any evidence of that? Just curious. Thanks
Great question. I believe there is, but I'll have to try and search around and see if I can find that. I think its less over activation with TCP vs atropine.
If a patient is stable and in a Monomorphic Wide complex tachycardia, can we skip adenosine and go straight to Amiodarone 150mg over 10min? I’m not understanding why adenosine would be considered. Adenosine only slows conduction through the AV node.
Hi any explanation on issue about adenosine …why is it there and should it be given before amiodorone or can we skip adenosine and give Amiodorone first???
we want to slow the rhythm quickly and with adenosine its quick! amid is last resort because it does prolong QT
Can epinephrine 1mg combined with Amiodarone used when the patient is having pulse ss vT
Yeah, although just start with the epi and give it every 3-5 and then give the amio when you reach that point in the algorithm
whats the difference between wide complex tachycardia and monomorphic vtachycardia?
Great question! So Vtach is a tachycardia with impulse generating from the ventricle. WCT, the easiest way to think about it would be a tachyarrhythmia, such as SVT, but with a bundle branch block. It can get more complex there, but its originating from higher up the chain, but some aberrancy is leading to the wide complex and not that it is originating in the ventricle like with vtach.
Hi
How do you create these kind of videos?
Can you suggest the websites were you download these free stock images of medical or human organs or medical devices ?
I use Adobe Photoshop screen cast to an iPad and write with an Apple Pencil, then screen record with Quicktime.
As for images, just search around. There are plenty of resources free and paid.
It is so ironic how increased HR actually means decreased perfusion. I honestly find that fascinating.
What does it really mean when you say UNSTABLE? What does i need to observe??? Pls acknowledge.
signs of shock like BP systolic less than 90mm, altered mental status, etc
Hello.. thank you so much for this video, I have a question, I just had a patient with cardiac arrest that had the svt rythm and after pushing 6mg adenosine, the rythm was converted but after a while it slowed down gradually till complete asystole, despite our chest compression and epinephrine injection.. what should I do to prevent this situation? I mean the bradycardia.. thank you
Transient Asystole is one of the side effect of adenosine
Are there any other ecg? legit question cause when u said if the person has wide QRS, then we wanna get a 12 lead ecg. So initially the person was already on another ecg? feel like its a dumb question :( Thank you for the answer in advanced.
Not a dumb question. So if the patient is on a bedside monitor (3 or 5 lead, or even pads on the defibrillator) then we are assessing the rhythm and if needed get the more involved 12-lead for more detail analysis.
@@ICUAdvantage wow! thank you for your answer :) im so happy it’s giving me light. i never have the experience after graduating and i really enjoy watching your videos. i might have more questions along the way and im forever grateful to you for sharing your knowledge. this is such a generous act. :)
Are you sure about giving another dose of 12mg adenosine on top of the previous 12 mg given?
Yes. Agree. AHA 2020 recommends IV Adenosine 6mg &12mg.
Yup apparently I missed that update! Just 1 dose now. All these years of 6-12-12 in my head to retrain! haha
Do you get copyright strike for your videos if you use screenshots from Google website , images , ?
Theres some freedom to use stuff under the fair use statutes.
If you do cardiovert, how many j’s?
Great question. So it can vary, depending on what and why, as well as you may need to increase joules if no effect. But generally start at around 50J and can go all the way up if needed.
Appreciate your videos very much...Question: V-tach with pulse is being referred in the tach algorithm as a tach with wide QRS complex? The treatment is antiarhythmic with anticipation of fast deterioration?...Thank You!
You got it! I should have clarified that better, but yup, 100% v-tach with a pulse is one of the wide-complex tachycardias mentioned :)
As for treatment, yes anti-arrhythmic. While this isn't mentioned in the ACLS algorithm, cardio version may be the fix that cardiology looks to use if the anti-arrhythmic is ineffective. While some people can persist in a stable v-tach, more often than not, if left unchecked they can quickly decline.
❤️❤️❤️🙏
Thank you!

This was extremely helpful for my last semester in nursing school. Thank you!
