The arrhythmia that results in cardiac arrest followed by death in the absence of treatment and therefore considered most serious is:
1. Tachycardia
2. Sinus bradycardia
3. Atrial flutter
4. Ventricular fibrillation
| Assertion (A): | Coronary arteries are especially vulnerable to obstruction by atherosclerotic plaques or thrombus. |
| Reason (R): | Coronary arteries supply oxygenated blood to the muscles of the heart itself. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
Severe dyspnea due to pulmonary edema will be caused most likely by:
1. cardiogenic shock
2. anaphylactic shock
3. right-sided congestive heart failure
4. left-sided congestive heart failure
