It's V Fib! Seeing ventricular fibrillation on the monitor during a pulse check in a cardiac arrest is reason to celebrate and shock, hoping that ROSC is within reach. But what happens when your POCUS views of the heart show fibrillation and your monitor does not? This session will efficiently break down the data that exists and help you make sense of who is fibbing and what to do.
Learning Objectives:
Summarize how often a bedside echo and the ECG (monitor) disagree on the presence of ventricular fibrillation during a cardiac arrest
Develop a clinical approach to situations where the bedside echo and the ECG (monitor) disagree on the presence of ventricular fibrillation during a cardiac arrest
