ECG Stampede

You’re an attending at a busy county hospital, and beds are scarce. Today is particularly bad, with hordes of patients checking in every minute. You can’t see them, but you need a way to triage them, so your tech brings you stacks of ECGs from the waiting room.



THE EXERCISE:

Review the ECGs presented to you and assess their acuity. The options are:

- Waiting Room: routine triage

- Next Available: top of the waiting room

- Room Immediately: straight to a bed

- Code STEMI: activate the cath lab



THE MODES:

- Stampede Mode: Play a quick game, ten ECG's with a sparse allotment of beds.

- Quiz Mode: Do as many ECG's as you'd like, seeing answers along the way.

- Random Mode: Luck of the draw, they're probably all STEMI's.
