PEA: ECG quiz video
Plays from YouTube when you click. Nothing loads from YouTube before that.
A 24-second clip of the Patient Simulator monitor. The rhythm name is never on the screen: the video asks the question, gives a hint, counts down five seconds and then gives the answer.
Hint
What's happening here? Look at the whole monitor, not just the ECG.
Answer
PEA. Organised beats and a heart rate, but no pressure and no pleth. Pulseless electrical activity: treat it as cardiac arrest.
