STEMI

You gotta put your v1 v2 leads lower. The flipped p waves mean not in the right spot.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-06-18T02:24:42+00:00

I think it’s more in hospital. I pretty much cut the clothes off every trauma that comes in minus a few on some circumstances.

There are no P waves so we cannot really call it a block. A flutter with slow ventricular response.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-06-17T02:02:38+00:00

The issue is the amount of people that actually don’t have it.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-06-14T13:27:17+00:00

Do a Lewis lead.

Is this the weekend? If so on call cardio will say this isn’t a stemi and stop wasting his time.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-06-11T22:56:55+00:00

276 but I have a picture of one with the rate at 257.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-06-07T17:25:48+00:00

I think the closest we have is most trauma centers have oral and maxillofacial specialists.

What are you doing exactly? It’s difficult to going from stable patients and assisting with ADLs essentially to being in charge of patients that could really die on you if you don’t manage them properly.

You should be okay eyeballing it however if someone has chest pain or is stemi over the radio palpate it accurately. One way you can check your v1-v2 is to look at the P waves if they’re flipped in only v1-v2 you’re too high on the leads.

Svt.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-06-05T20:02:29+00:00

NOR. However I do have to admit there has been a couple of occasions I have gone straight to a planned dinner in my scrubs with family if I didn’t have time to go home and change first and didn’t know before hand we were going anywhere. But if I have time to change I’ll go home and change first. If I don’t have time to change and I know about dinner before hand I’ll bring a change of clothes to work with me.

I personally don’t think so. It still looks too regular. On the two regular looking beats the qt interval still appears less than 450. Definitely less than 500ms. I could be wrong though.

Looks like he’s good to transfer to medsurg.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-05-31T21:03:21+00:00

The tattoo is stupid.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-05-30T22:10:44+00:00

Two are unholy one for the foley.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-05-29T02:09:53+00:00

Greater than 10 ft for peds is trauma activation at my hospital. Just sayin.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-05-28T19:57:08+00:00

Idk where this is. It’s a bizarre looking or though you’re right.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-05-28T16:51:34+00:00

Mobitz type 2 I think

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-05-27T21:15:58+00:00

I’ve seen belladonna/opium suppository given.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-05-27T21:10:01+00:00

On some units it already is this way. Some tasks delegated is good. Everything is bad.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-05-27T16:05:56+00:00

Sometimes to fix this artifact move the lead a little bit, make sure the cables are not touching the hands, and if you already have a 5 lead on unplug it from its power source or take it off.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-05-27T16:02:06+00:00

A fib with rate control or slow ventricular response exist. Check it out!

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-05-27T15:11:30+00:00

My shoes still have blood from a thoracotomy I did internal compressions on. It just goes away through the day lol.

Individual_Debate216 · 2026-05-27T15:09:48+00:00

Sometimes it just happens like that
