Cardiology Treatment Challenge

Symptomatic Bradycardia — ACLS Sequence · L1

How this exercise works

Drag ACLS interventions into the correct priority order for bradycardia, tachycardia, or arrest algorithms. Life-threatening rhythms get pacing, shock, or epinephrine before secondary steps.

Fundamental concept

Sequencing pacing, defibrillation, medications, and supportive care for bradycardia, tachycardia, and arrest rhythms.

Scenario

HR 38/min, BP 88/50, altered, dizzy. ECG: third-degree AV block. IV access established.

Drag items into priority order — highest priority at the top.

Available

Identify symptomatic bradycardia and ensure airway/oxygenation
Prepare transcutaneous pacing if atropine ineffective
Transport to facility capable of transvenous pacing
Atropine 1 mg IV; may repeat to 3 mg total
Consider epinephrine or dopamine infusion per protocol
