The EMS Lighthouse Project

Episode 26

Show Notes

Have you ever given adenosine to a patient in SVT? Yeah? Did they like it? I didn’t think so. You’ve probably also given up trying to use the Valsalva maneuver because you’ve found it doesn’t work very often. Wouldn’t it be great if there were a way to make the Valsalva more effective and, perhaps, avoid kicking the patient in the chest with adenosine? Dr. Jarvis reviews a paper in this episode that may offer just this.
