Performs “Quick Look” with Paddles
• 1. Turn on EKG monitor• 2. Turn the lead selector to
PADDLES• 3. Apply conductive jelly or use
defibrillation pads• 4. Place paddles firmly on the
bare chest with the paddle marked STERNUM on right chest near sternum, and paddle marked APEX on lower left chest
• 5. Adjust EKG size• 6. Observe scope and determine
patients condition. Check pulse and verify absence of pulse
• 7. If fatal dysrhythmia is noted, proceed with defibrillation algorithm

Orders high percentages of supplemental oxygen at proper
times• Administer high flow oxygen
– 12-15 LPM per NRB mask, or– 12-15 LPM connected to BVM, or– Positive pressure ventilation

Correctly Interprets Initial Rhythm
• Fatal Dysrhythmias– Ventricular fibrillation (VFib)– Pulseless ventricular
tachycardia (VTach)– Asystole– Pulseless electrical activity
(PEA)– Electromechanical
Dissociation (EMD)– Bradycardia (non-arrest)– Tachycardia (non-arrest)
![Page 13: Cardiac Arrest Skills Station 1. Registry Skills Review Compiled and presented by IHCC EHS 2001 paramedic students: Margaret Lind Steven Rudolph Karen](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649d9c5503460f94a8434a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
