Life and Sirens: On and Behind the Scenes

Episode 36: Slow & Steady - Treatment of Bradycardia


Listen Later

Bradycardia might be slow, but managing it takes quick thinking. In this episode, we break down how to assess and treat bradycardia in both adult and pediatric patients—from when to observe to when to intervene. We’re talking pacing pearls, common rhythm pitfalls, and the dos and don’ts of Atropine (spoiler: it’s not always your go-to). Plus, we get into the critical differences in treating pediatric bradycardia, including when to act fast and why it’s usually a sign of something bigger. Whether it’s a sleepy sinus rhythm or a code-level concern, we’ve got you covered with real-world strategies for the field.

As always, if you have a story to tell—funny, wild, heartbreaking, or unforgettable—you can share it through our website. We’d love to feature it on a future episode.
