SVT and types of conduction
The Supraventricular tachycardia page has been updated with a revision of the segment on the types of conduction present in SVT and AFib with an accessory pathway.
Resuscitation
ECG of SVT with an accessory pathway
The Supraventricular tachycardia page has been updated with another ECG of SVT with an accessory pathway
Isoprenaline
The Bradycardias page has been updated with some additional information about isoprenaline doses
Transcutaneous pacing
The Pacemaker page has been updated with some additional information about post procedural care following successful transcutaneous pacing.
Internal jugular vein catheter position check US
2 US clips demonstrating correct positioning of an IJV catheter have been added to the videos page.
Extravasation injury
The Peripheral intravenous cannulation page has been updated with additional information about extravasation injury.
Wound ballistics
Some minor changes have been made to the Missile injuries page, including changing terminology from ‘high velocity injuries’ to ‘high energy injuries’.
Intranasal ketamine for analgesia
The Induction agents page has been updated with the IN ketamine dose for analgesia.
Mallampati scores
The Difficult intubation page has been updated with additional information about the limitations of the Mallampati score to predict difficult intubation.
Bag mask ventilation and beards
The Bag mask ventilation page has been updated with some additional information about BVM in patients with beards.
ECG of accessory pathway
A ECG image of a probable posterobasal accessory pathway has been added to the Supraventricular tachycardia page.
ECG of AFib and accessory pathway
A new ECG of AFib with an accessory pathway has been added to the Supraventricular tachycardia page.
Ablation for AFib
The Atrial fibrillation arrhythmia management page has been updated with information about the potential long term benefits of catheter ablation.
Dead space in 3 way taps
The Paediatric cardiac arrest page has been updated with information about the potential for reduced drug administration through 3 way taps in neonates and small infants.
Ablation for recurrent VT
The Ventricular arrhythmias page has been updated with a short segment on the ongoing management of recurrent VT
Cessation of CPR
The Advanced cardiac life support page has been updated to indicate that an unwitnessed arrest with a non-shockable rhythm and age > 80 years is associated with a very low likelihood of survival to hospital discharge.
SVT and LAHB
An ECG of SVT with a LAHB has been added to the Supraventricular tachycardia page.
iGel airway image
A new image of an iGel airway has been added to the Difficult intubation equipment page.
Propofol and egg/soy allergy
The Induction agents page has been updated to indicated that egg or soy allergy are no longer considered contra-indications for the administration of propofol. Thanks to Alan for the tip.
Post arrest PCI without STEMI
The Post arrest care page has been updated to reflect the more limited indications for post arrest PCI in the absence of STEMI, based on the most recent evidence.
