Matching Emergency Drugs with Clinical Conditions
This question requires matching specific emergency drugs from List I to their primary clinical conditions in List II.
Drug-Condition Matching:
- Amiodarone (A) is primarily used to treat ventricular arrhythmias, including Ventricular tachycardia (3).
- Adenosine (B) is the first-line drug for converting Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) (4) to normal sinus rhythm.
- Digoxin (C) is used to control the ventricular rate in conditions like Atrial fibrillation (2).
- Atropine (D) is used to treat symptomatic bradycardia and heart blocks, including certain types of A-V Block, Mobitz type II (1), by increasing heart rate.
Correct Match Code:
Based on the standard indications:
- A → 3
- B → 4
- C → 2
- D → 1
This corresponds to the code 3, 4, 2, 1 for options A, B, C, D respectively.
Final Answer Selection:
The option that correctly represents this match is:
| A | B | C | D |
| 3 | 4 | 2 | 1 |
