Abstract
|
|
|
|
This scenario was designed to teach the diagnosis and treatment of ventricular fibrillation. Ventricular fibrillation is a life-threatening status. Risk factors for ventricular fibrillation include advanced age, hypertension, and ischemic heart disease. All patients with ventricular fibrillation have sudden collapse. For differential diagnosis learners should do history taking, physical examination, and check laboratory test. Basic life support and advanced cardiac life support should be initiated while diagnostic tests. This scenario can be conducted for both residents and medical students.
