Abstract:REFERENCESGausche et al. also evaluated the efficacy and feasibility of the use of adenosine for the treatment of PSVT in the out-of-hospital setting. These investigators defined PSVT as a narrow-complex tachycardia with a rate of 2140 beatdmin. Adenosine was administered in a 12-mg followed by 12-mg dosing regimen. Eighty-five of 107 tachycardic patients (79%) were subsequently found to be in PSVT, and 85% of these patients converted to sinus rhythm with adenosine. The recurrence rate was 1.6% and the complic… Show more
The use of the pediatric code card enabled prehospital care providers to determine weight-based drug doses, volumes of administration, and endotracheal tube sizes more accurately than peers without access to the code card.
