🚨 Cardiac Arrest – NON-Shockable Rhythm (Asystole / PEA) 🚨 First 4 Cycles Management (ACLS Focus): 🧠 Key Points: ✔ No defibrillation ✔ Minimize CPR interruptions ✔ Reassess rhythm every 2 min ✔ Treat reversible causes aggressively #CardiacArrest #NonShockableRhythm #Asystole #PEA EmergencyNursing | Moayad Wishah

🔹ACLS Cardiac Arrest Algorithm:Shockable vs. Non-Shockable Rhythm Pathway ⚡ · Shockable: VF/VT. Treat with immediate defibrillation. · Torsades de Pointes is a polymorphic VT. Defibrillate if pulseless. Correct underlying causes (e.g., hypomagnesemia, long QT). · Non-Shockable: PEA/Asystole. Treat with CPR, Epinephrine, and reversible causes (Hs & Ts). Cycle: 2 min CPR → Rhythm Check → Act. #TorsadesDePointes #PolymorphicVT #CardiacArrest #ACLS #ECG #VF #VT #PEA #Asystole #Resuscitation #Cardio

Essential guide to the four primary ECG rhythms in cardiac arrest, aligned with ACLS protocols. Shockable Rhythms · VF: Chaotic, disorganized electrical activity. → Defibrillate. · Pulseless VT: Wide-complex tachycardia (>150 bpm). → Defibrillate. Non-Shockable Rhythms · PEA: Organized ECG rhythm without a pulse. → CPR Find Cause. · Asystole: Absence of electrical activity (confirm in ≥2 leads). → CPR Epinephrine. #ACLS #CardiacArrest #ECG #MedEd #cardiology | Abdallah Othman
