Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When implementing transcutaneous pacing, the rate is commonly set in the range of 60-80 BPM. This range is considered the optimal rate range for maintaining an adequate cardiac output and preventing further deterioration in unstable bradycardia patients. Lower rates (A, C, D) may not provide enough cardiac output or may be too slow to help stabilize the patient's condition.
