Question

An individual should be cleared prior to a shock only when convenient. true or false

Answer 1

False. An individual should always be cleared prior to a shock with defribillator.

What is defibrillation?

• Ventricular fibrillation (V-Fib) and non-perfusing ventricular tachycardia are two heart arrhythmias that require defibrillation as a treatment (V-Tach).
• A counter-shock, also known as an electric current dose, is given to the heart by a defibrillator. This process depolarizes a significant portion of the heart muscle, terminating the arrhythmia, even though it is not entirely understood.
• The natural pacemaker of the body, the sinoatrial node of the heart, is then able to restore a regular sinus rhythm.
• Defibrillators cannot restart a heart that is in asystole (flatline), but cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) may.
