67 yo male, no heart disease history. During rhinoplasty patient suffered hypotension and was treated by anesthesiologist with epinephrine bolus, then this happened... Would you actívate cathlab? What could be happening? #EkgChallenge

ICU #hemodynamics secrets: Right ventricular failure is an important cause of insufficient left ventricular preload. In this case, a "fluid bolus" is almost never the right answer #foamed #foamcc #meded #medtwitter

Easy, but important case to quickly improve on new #ECG patterns! 57-year-old male makes an early morning call to EMS for chest pain lasting 30 minutes and radiating to the arm. History of prior PCI. Diagnosis?

The ever so sneaky ↑K+. Notice the Peaked T-waves are not classic “pointy” and the QRS is not wide. This is a great example of why clinicians should have a very low threshold to trial IV calcium in any unstable bradycardia.
