How do doctors stabilize a really low heart rate in an e.r.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: It depends on how low the heart rate is and what symptoms like dizziness, low blood pressure. Medicines can be used to increase heart rate and blood pressure. Depending on the cause sometimes a temporary pacemaker is needed.
