REBEL Core Cast 110.0 – On Shift Learning Pearls

11 minutes

Take Home Points:

Patients with recent onset atrial fibrillation can safely be cardioverted if they are 1) on anticoagulation 2) Low risk based on CHADS-VASC with onset < 48 hours or 3) High risk based on CHADS-VASC with onset < 12 hours.

In anaphylaxis, think, “If A, B or C, give E.” If the patient has compromise to airway, breathing or circulation, they should get immediate epinephrine.

D-dimer can effectively rule out a larger portion of low risk patients if age adjustment or the YEARS criteria are employed.

When reviewing a syncope ECG, scour it for WPW, Brugada, Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, Prolonged/Short QTc and ARVC.
