Ventricular fibrillation is often a fatal arrhythmia. It occurs when the ventricular rate exceeds 400. In this setting, virtually no forward cardiac output occurs. Advanced Cardiac Life Support ...

This paradoxical increase in ventricular heart rates may lead to ventricular fibrillation (ventricular rates of 400 to 600 bpm) and death. Procainamide or urgent electrical cardioversion is ...

A man who claimed to have died for six minutes after going into cardiac arrest has shared his chilling experience of the ...

Such techniques can be automatically applied using implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and offer the potential for painless termination of ventricular tachycardia (VT). Reduction in ...

A study from the University of Birmingham and German researchers has found that using anabolic steroids could increase the ...

The condition can lead to ventricular fibrillation and, therefore, sudden cardiac death. Here, the authors show that suppression of FoxO1 signaling in HFpEF reduces arrhythmias by improving ...
