Question four
When considering the treatment of PEA/Asystole:
Select one or more option(s) and then Confirm.
That’s partly right. Have another go.
That’s partly right.
When considering the treatment of PEA/Asystole, give 1mg adrenaline as soon as vascular access is achieved. There is no evidence that the routine use of atropine is effective in the treatment of asystole or PEA.
Quick and effective treatment of an identified reversible cause will increase the likelihood of ROSC. However, external pacing may be effective for p-wave asystole, but is unlikely to be effective in true asystole.
