• When debating sodium channel blocker toxicity vs. V tach you can try bicarbonate, but antiarrhythmics (amiodarone, lidocaine, etc.) will cause a clean kill if it’s a sodium channel blocker toxicity. • Sodium channel blocker toxicity: Rightward axis, QT prolongation, QRS widening, tall R wave in aVR, tachycardia. • A-fib under a rate of about 150 bpm is unlikely to be causing ischemia, so if you see an ischemic ECG and a rate under 150 assume the ischemia is the primary problem. • ST elevation and a RBBB is always abnormal. Call the cath lab. • Think about isolated posterior STEMI if there is any ST depression in V1-V3. Get posterior leads and remember 0.5 mm of elevation on posterior leads is positive for STEMI.
