See the questions first
Real items, with the answer marked and the reason written out — the same format as all 129.
A patient has a heart rate of 38 with hypotension and altered mental status. What is the first-line drug?
Why: Atropine has been shown effective for symptomatic bradycardia in observational studies and is the first drug used; the other options are tachycardia or rate-slowing drugs.
What is the correct dose and interval of epinephrine during adult cardiac arrest?
Why: Epinephrine in cardiac arrest is 1 mg IV/IO every 3 to 5 minutes. Its alpha-adrenergic vasoconstriction raises aortic diastolic pressure and thereby coronary perfusion pressure. In non-shockable rhythms (asystole/PEA), give epinephrine as soon as feasible; in shockable rhythms (VF/pVT), give it after the first shock or two fail to convert the rhythm.
