It may be one of the most well-known medical shows on TV, but Grey’s is the least accurate when it comes to hospital life.

In the Alameda County EMS system, push dose epinephrine is in the protocol for management of shock suspected due to hypovolemia, sepsis and decreased cardiac output (i.e., cardiogenic). After empiric fluid resuscitation, 0.5 mL aliquots of 10 mcg/mL epinephrine is to be administered, titrating to SBP > 90 mmHg.

A 1 cc dose of standard concentration push dose epinephrine (10mcg) would provide 1 minute’s worth of epinephrine in one bolus. 2 cc of push dose epinephrine (20mcg) would provide 2 minute’s worth of a 0.5 mcg/kg/min epi drip.

Epinephrine, more commonly known as adrenaline, is a hormone secreted by the medulla of the adrenal glands. Strong emotions such as fear or anger cause epinephrine to be released into the bloodstream, which causes an increase in heart rate, muscle strength, blood pressure, and sugar metabolism.

Epinephrine should be delivered IV/IO at 1 mg (which is 10 mL of 1:10,000 solution) Should be administered every 3 to 5 minutes during resuscitation. Each dose should be followed with 20 mL normal saline flush. Arm of delivery should be elevated for 10 to 20 seconds after dose delivery.
