Review
Presented algorithm accurately depicts the reality of situation in a patient with symptomatic bradycardia. It describes the wide variability of successful possibilities of solving the situation. Large amount of information gets the student again in justification of incorrect answers. Although this algorithm is presented in hospital facilities, therefore is considered to be an ALS, thanks to some mentioned steps student can manage similar situation of symptomatic bradycardia also under conditions of BLS.
