See, I thought the same thing. And your are right. It tik a few seconds for the patient's heart to "shake off" the effects of the shock that was delivered. But she settled into normal sinus rhythm after the strip ran out. The rhythm is funky, but she was perfusing. And that is the name of the game, isn't it?

BTW- thank you so much for your service. God bless you.

I should say thank you for your service. Truth be told, unitl I was ten I wanted nothing more than to be an M-60 Gunner in a Huey, and I was so crushed when I found out the Army didn't really use those anymore. Medic is still a great alternative.
