I definitely wouldn't have wanted to be the first person to get cardioverted. Or ever for that matter. What do you think was the worst "FIRST" ever in medical history?

Tried hard to convince him it was ST. “Sooo…you’ve been sick lately, no eating or drinking” him: “no, ive been fine.” So…working really hard in the shed, lots of sweating….. him: no; just some light cleaning. So. “Listen man, I’m sorry, I’m going to have to use electricity to restart your heart, it is beating to fast, and if it sounds like I am going to electrocute you and it is going to hurt, you’re right.” Him: is that necessary. Me: yes. Him: Can you give me something for pain? Me: nope, if I could do that I would be trying other medications first your pressure is to low. Him: okay. Zap: Him: that really hurt.

If we used every electronics professors ever favourite example: Imagine you have a mountain and a valley. The difference between the mountain and the valley is the difference in potential or the voltage. You are the charge and how fast you are moving down the mountain is determined by the current (Actually your speed IS the current, but that's too complicated for now) Now at high currents, say you slip and fall down the mountain all the way to the valley reaching terminal velocity during your fall, you're with a very high likelihood dead. At low currents, say you leisurely walk down the mountain, you are most likely not dead. Does that make sense?

@@JL-dance What is and isn't lethal has many factors. 1) AC or DC? 2) What path does the electricity take? 3) How big is the voltage and resistance? 4) If it's AC, what's the frequency? Basically if it's AC going through the heart you can die from that at MUCH lower currents than for example DC going into your right thumb and leaving through your right index finger. Also frequency is important because AC has what is called the skin-effect where the current actually flows only through the outermost parts of the wire (or in this case the skin) and this is more pronounced the higher the frequency. And as a rule of thumb as long as the electricity doesn't travel through the heart you are mostly fine. I say mostly because at certain levels of power you do suffer severe burns and can die from those, but you get what I mean

That was a fun little adventure into medical literature.

As someone with Atrioventricular nodal reentry Tachycardia and Atrial Tachycardia... the fear is real! 😂 The first time I had it happen, my heart rate was around 250bpm. The paramedics came and told me to stick my thumb in my mouth, build up a lot of pressure like you're trying to blow up a balloon (but don't let the air out!) While simultaneously bearing down, pushing to take a poop... "but don't really poop!!!!!" - as one paramedic emphasized lol it made me wonder about what poor soul made that necessary for him to say. Needless to say, but it worked! Those guys gave me better tools on how to stop an episode than any cardiologist/electrophysiologists I saw. I'll always be grateful for them.

We do this often at the emergency cardiac care unit before injecting any kind of medicine. It’s called the Valsalva maneuver. You can blow as hard as you can on you thumb of on the back of your hand. It builds up the pressure in you thorax which will strongly stimulate the vagus nerve (causes the heart rhythm to slowdown). You can also do the modified vasalva but that takes longer. You can do this when the first Vasalva failed to work.

Amarante #29 NorCal, Ik the ALS protocols can vary fairly widely state to state so I’m not entirely sure as I’m just a basic that’s been running 911 for a few years. From what I remember, Fire had been on scene a few minutes before we got there so they might have attempted a Vagal (which makes sense looking back as that pt was more stable than the other I mentioned) but our unit only was involved in the drug admin and vert. The other I was with a Medic that had moved from Florida but I only saw the drug/vert again. It’s entirely possible that I missed it while setting up the drugs possibly? Let me know if any of that helps make a bit more sense. I typed this out a little quick as I’m studying for my Phlebotomy final tomorrow.

I had afib and tachycardia between when I was 17 and 21 years old. My heart was young and strong so in extreme cases it would get up to over 300 beats a minute and sometimes would hover in the 200’s and wouldn’t convert for days. I had two ablations but I’ve had over half a dozen of these cardioversions and one time when they did 3 back to back, I was awake for the last charge and that was pretty wild, not very fun. They give you a drug that makes you feel all warm and talkative and honestly pretty amazing to out you to sleep before they shock you. My last surgery was while I had Covid and was having partial heart failure because of it. The surgery seams to have fixed the issue and now I’m just living my life, it’s been about a year.

I’m sorry, but no I can’t help it. I’m worrying. I’m a grown adult laying in bed with two complete strangers wiping my doodle and bum because I pissed myself. There’s nothing that you can say to reduce the embarrassment I feel/felt. But of course I was appreciative then as I still am today for the work they do everyday.

Ha ha ha! Remember the first time my dad had to undergo his first cardioversion. For us regular mortals they stop the heart at the right point, then let's it restart itself. Done correctly it will return with a normal heart beat. But I was honestly worried when I heard the procedure was doctors stopping my dad's heart, and hoping it would return with a normal rhythm. It's the same thing that happens when you do CRP. You provide chest compression until the heart goes from inactive to arrhythmia, then the defibrillator shocks the heart to stabilize the beat.

I swear like 90% of non EMS people believe that the defib is a sure thing if the pt is arrhythmic. Lead to some stressful resuscitations with family on scene. Can’t blame them though, stressful as hell situation mixed with shitty TV shows that just show a flatline and the doc immediately shocking.

uuuugh, i had to have a cardio catheter exam done for reentry-tachycardia and an ablation, and while they didn't use the big buzzer on me, they DID tell me "170 is a nice bpm to work off of". me, fully awake, if drugged into a puddle of "can't run", did NOT think so. took 5 hours, and they jammed the catheter into my liver vein, and somewhere near my lung (weirdest feeling ever) once i was done, i got to rest up and then proceeded to bleed all over the floor when the stitches of the entry port thingie opened up again 8D fun times! it did help, though, even if i still have smaller episodes a couple times a year
