Can you trust the first post-arrest ECG, or could it be misleading? In this lecture from ResusX: ROSC (see the link below for more lectures), Dr. Amal Mattu breaks down the critical nuances of post-resuscitation ECG interpretation—how to differentiate STEMI from non-STEMI, when to activate the cath lab, and why early ECG readings might overestimate ischemia.

Discover how to avoid fatal pitfalls in wide complex tachycardia interpretation, why some VTach mimics can be deadly if treated with antiarrhythmics, and how a simple dose of bicarb or calcium can save lives. If you’re looking to refine your ECG skills and improve post-arrest decision-making, this lecture is a must-watch!
