AFib with RVR: Diagnosis Management ⤵️ Dx: HR is irregular Do not use digoxin, nondihydropyridine CCB, and amiodarone in those with Afib
In fact this evening the patient's telemetry after starting the latest amiodarone drip showed afib rvr with a rate of s, appeared to
The following focuses on acute management of Afib with RVR and atrial flutter with RVR. Rate control vs. rhythm control. Onset ≥ 48
AFib with RVR can be a medical emergency, and in this case, electrical cardioversion and intravenous medications can be given to rapidly control
Amiodarone can be used for both rate and rhythm control in AF. That is, it may slow the rate and/or convert afib to NSR. To slow afib with RVR
Comparing AFib and AFib with RVR. Though atrial fibrillation and AFib with RVR share the same irregular heartbeat, they are distinct in their manifestations. While atrial fibrillation is marked by the atria quivering or fibrillating, atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response is a subtype of this condition which signifies a rapid heart
In fact this evening the patient's telemetry after starting the latest amiodarone drip showed afib rvr with a rate of s, appeared to
2024. TLDR. Prehospital diltiazem administration for AFIB with RVR is safe and Amiodarone appears to be safe and effective in the termination of atrial
Amiodarone can be used for both rate and rhythm control in AF. That is, it may slow the rate and/or convert afib to NSR. To slow afib with RVR

Keep them coming 😊
BTW. Standalone CHF taking down an otherwise healty person like that??? No afib, no obesity, no alcoholism, no bundle blockage or left side failure??
