Effect of duration of ventricular fibrillation on defibrillation efficacy in humans
1990
Circulation
Preserved Fulltext
Little is known about the effects of the duration of ventricular fibrillation on the efficacy of defibrillating shocks. ...
The currently available automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator has proven highly successful for termination of ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation. ...
Our data probably represent the worst case, because we initiated ventricular fibrillation with rectified alternating current and because all patients were in ventricular fibrillation for the entire duration ...
