Okay, so there are multiple questions on this one, so let's get right into it.
00:07
So we don't know why someone's heart rate would go from 88 to 50 all of a sudden.
00:15
So heart rate 88 to 50 suddenly.
00:29
And we want to know why.
00:33
So one explanation for this would be ventricular fibrelation.
00:46
Ventricular fibrillation and ventricular fibrillation are erratic electrical impulses that are sometimes triggered by a heart attack that cause your muscles ventricles to quiver so when you have this kind of arrhythmia your ventricles can't pump blood into your body and your heart rate drops quickly so ventricles can't pump blood into your body.
01:30
And this is what causes the heart rate to suddenly drop.
01:36
Now, what to do if your patient's heart rate drops suddenly? you can start cpr.
01:46
If you start cpr, do that by pushing hard and fast on the person's chest, about 100 to 120 compressions a minute.
01:57
So patients with pulmonary disease are prone to atrial dysrithmias, and we want to know why.
02:07
So pulmonary disease equals atrial dysrhythmias, and we want to know why.
02:37
So pulmonary diseases negatively affect the normal gas exchange process.
02:43
So negatively affect, let me rewrite all that because it looks terrible.
03:05
Negative, negatively affects the normal gas exchange process.
03:28
So atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained dysrhythmia...
