1,2] Consider using a physiological marker to help identify inadvertent vascular injection, such as epinephrine. [3] If epinephrine is used, small initial doses ( <1 ug/kg) are preferred. Hemodynamics slowly begin to stabilize, and the patient is transferred to the ICU for further post-cardiac arrest care.

The patient received 1 mg of epinephrine IV x2 with conversion of his rhythm to ventricular fibrillation (VF) for which he was defibrillated twice in the field. He requires low-dose epinephrine to maintain his mean arterial pressure (MAP) in the 60s mmHg and is transported to the cardiothoracic (CT) ICU.

If it is determined that the bleeding originates from one lung it is recommended to position the patient in lateral decubitus with the bleeding lung down to avoid contamination of the contralateral lung. Portable chest X-ray may help determine from which lung the bleeding originates. 13,14 The typical regimen is 500 mg three times daily.

Have push dose epinephrine at the bedside as induction can remove sympathetic tone and result in a vagal episode. Anyone with progressive symptoms or more findings on exam than paresthesias alone should be admitted to the hospital, likely to an ICU setting, due to the risk of decompensation. Normally, you should be able to get to 20.
