點解要學? 點解要做?

無protocol要求識睇ECG
有DM會自己判斷係唔係STEMI
咁點解要學?
案例 1
案例 2

 開call Dizzy
 到場,屋村街邊,伯伯坐電動輪椅,由輪椅跌左落地。頭附
近有已經乾左的血跡,目測大概20ml, Small Laceration
wound on forehead。
 伯伯LOC Slightly Drop, No neck pain

 BP 67/38
案例 3

 開call 頭暈
 伯伯睇電視中頭暈,由坐位Sir落地。現在訓在床上,GCS
356,全身冷汗,pale cool clammy,同你講好暈無晒力。

 V/S: RR20 shallow, SpO2 RA 86, Pulse 46 very weak


irregular,
BP 125/86, GCS 356, Skin pale cool clammy

點解唔做?

 無Protocol?
 無用? [Link]

 唔識?
 怕尷尬?
 12 Lead ECG 有可能有 false negative
 心律不正有可能非常危險
