Question

which therapy is not supported by evidence for use in patients with cardiac arrest secondary to hypothermia? choose the correct answer active core rewarming defibrillation vasopressors antiarrhythmics

Explanation:

In patients with cardiac arrest secondary to hypothermia, anti - arrhythmics are not supported by evidence. Hypothermia can cause changes in the electrical and mechanical properties of the heart, and anti - arrhythmics may be ineffective and can have dangerous side - effects due to altered drug metabolism in hypothermic states. Active core rewarming is a key treatment, defibrillation may be needed if there is a shockable rhythm, and vasopressors can be used to support circulation.

Answer:

Antiarrythmics
