Patients with unstable bradycardias frequently require the insertion of a transvenous pacemaker as part of their initial ED resuscitation. Although this is a relatively common procedure in the hospital setting, it isn’t done often in the emergency department. The procedure for insertion of a transvenous pacemaker is straightforward but creates quite a bit of anxiety for providers who haven’t inserted one in a while. This lab will teach you the steps of pacemaker insertion and what to do once it has been placed. Participants completing this workshop will gain confidence in taking care of this group of critically ill patients.
