If resolves, start PO of metoprolol or diltiazem, whichever broke the Afib RVR. Goal HR 110. If persistent, give amiodarone IV bolus 150mg and start amiodarone
If resolves, start PO of metoprolol or diltiazem, whichever broke the Afib RVR. Goal HR 110. If persistent, give amiodarone IV bolus 150mg and start amiodarone
Some cases of Afib involve atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response (RVR). amiodarone; dofetilide; dronedarone; flecainide; propafenone
In fact this evening the patient's telemetry after starting the latest amiodarone drip showed afib rvr with a rate of s, appeared to
Amiodarone can be used for both rate and rhythm control in AF. That is, it may slow the rate and/or convert afib to NSR. To slow afib with RVR
If resolves, start PO of metoprolol or diltiazem, whichever broke the Afib RVR. Goal HR 110. If persistent, give amiodarone IV bolus 150mg and start amiodarone
Afib RVR. Goal HR 110. If persistent, give amiodarone IV bolus 150mg and start amiodarone drip 1mg/min. Unstable atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular
Comparing AFib and AFib with RVR. Though atrial fibrillation and AFib with RVR share the same irregular heartbeat, they are distinct in their manifestations. While atrial fibrillation is marked by the atria quivering or fibrillating, atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response is a subtype of this condition which signifies a rapid heart
Stable atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response (stable Afib with RVR): If persistent, give amiodarone IV bolus 150mg and start amiodarone drip 1mg/
