🩺 ACLS Megacode 1 Question 6: ACLS Certification Association Answer Key ✅ Correct answer: B. Wait and Observe 👉 There is no need to treat—simply observe. Adenosine has a very short half-life and the asystole will last only seconds (although it may feel like forever for you and the patient). It is a good idea to warn the patient of the unpleasant side effects of adenosine before administration, which may include those mentioned as well as lightheadedness/dizziness, a metallic taste in the mouth
