    Great content! We had a younger (50's) patient show up to our urgent care with a HR of 30. All she complained of was "fatigue". Did a stat EKG and she had a 3rd degree heart block. We called EMS straight away! ðŸĪĢ The patient ended up with a pacemaker.

    What happens in the process of the 4 leads coming off while PT is being paced?

      The 4 leads stay on the patient while pacing with the pads!

      It really depends on the monitor and the monitor's configurated settings. Some monitors (and settings) may actually pace without the limb leads connected - but some may automatically stop pacing if the limb leads are disconnected. I'm not sure how helpful that is/was, but wanted to state some monitors may actually pace without the limb leads connected. In paramedic education, we preach to keep both connected as that's the safest/most consistent way to teach it.
