Abstract:
The emergent treatment of dysrhythmias in the ED continues to evolve. Classic medications such as bretylium and lidocaine are given with newer drugs like amiodarone, ibutilide, and sotalol. Studies in progress will examine their efficacy in the ED. The emergency physician must keep abreast of the growing body of literature.
