???? Medical Fact #2: A perfect rhythm on the monitor… but no pulse.

In this episode, we dive into the terrifying reality of Pulseless Electrical Activity (PEA) — a condition where the monitor shows a normal rhythm, but the patient is clinically dead. Through a cinematic reenactment, we explore a case of a sudden cardiac collapse caused by a massive pulmonary embolism, and how recognizing PEA early can make the difference between life and death.

This series is crafted for medical professionals — physicians, nurses, paramedics, and advanced providers — to sharpen clinical instincts and improve outcomes in high-stakes situations.

???? What you’ll learn:

Why PEA is not a rhythm but a clinical red flag

How to work through the 6 Hs and 6 Ts in real time

Why monitor-based resuscitation can mislead you

How to treat the cause, not the waveform
