Re: myocardial infarction
neanne - 09-26-08 18:37 I don't about the rythm. Is it bradycardia? The treatment would be atropine.
#2
Re: myocardial infarction
sackatdoc - 09-26-08 19:54 yes bradycardia happens but not that common, 3rd degree heart block to be precise and yes treated with Atropin
but my question is still unanswered, any more try, Mohhaider??where are you, this is good for ck as well.ok i'll wait for him.
#3
Re: myocardial infarction
mohhaider - 09-27-08 00:26 Ventricular tachycardia and Ventricular fibrilation(most common cause of death ).
#4
Re: myocardial infarction
sackatdoc - 09-27-08 04:02 but death doesnt occur in all MI cases,so it doesnt happen that often, so the commonest is Ventricular premature complexes, and no specific treatment. you were close.
