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 ...
A new study led by researchers at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) suggests it can. By placing one defibrillator pad ...
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 ...
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 ...
