A member asked:
Help plz! can severe hypoxia cause bradydysrhythmias more often than ventricular fibrillation and why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Either or both: Severe hypoxia can manifest as extreme bradycardia which can degenerate into VF. Many factors influence this including underlying heart disease, electrolyte balance, medications taken to name a few.
