Abstract:
Among the implantable cardioverter defibrillator recipients, there is still a subgroup of patients in whom the defibrillation threshold is too high and the maximal shock output of the implantable cardioverter defibrillator can fail to terminate a ventricular arrhythmia. We report a new thoracoscopic minimally invasive approach to place a standard array electrode in the transverse pericardial sinus of a patient implanted with a cardiac resynchronization and defibrillation therapy device with persistent high defibrillation threshold. This approach was developed to achieve very low shock impedanc

Abstract:
Autonomic neural tone modulates arrhythmias and could affect the efficacy of an implantable defibrillator if defibrillation threshold is also altered by changes in neural activity. We determined the effects of alpha- and beta-adrenoceptor agonists and antagonists on the energy requirement for defibrillation using a sequential-pulse technique in anesthetized pigs. The doses for each drug were selected based on the results of dose-response curves. The mean defibrillation threshold was 10.2 +/- 0.65 J (mean +/- SE) in control and 10.0 +/- 0.84, 9.4 +/- 0.87 and 8.9 +/- 0.89 J during phenylephrine

Abstract:
ObjectiveThe importance of access to early defibrillation for patients in cardiac arrest has been emphasised as a critical part of the chain of survival by resuscitation bodies internationally; as such defibrillation has become a key procedure for many out-of-hospital emergency healthcare providers. However, little research has been undertaken specifically addressing students’ safety during defibrillation procedures.

Abstract:
This paper presents the development of a bidomain model of electrical defibrillation and post-shock arrhythmogenesis of the rabbit heart. The model incorporates a realistic representation of cardiac geometry, fiber structure, and membrane ionic processes. Fibrillation is induced in the rabbit heart with burst pacing. Defibrillation shocks of various strengths are delivered to the model in an attempt to terminate the arrhythmia. Two sets of defibrillation simulations are conducted based on the waveform of the defibrillation shock: monophasic and biphasic. The simulations presented here demonstr

Despite the development and widespread implementation of Basic Life Support and Advanced Cardiac Life Support, the percentage of patients who survive in-hospital cardiac arrest has remained stable at approximately 15%. Although survival rates may approach 90% in coronary care units, survival rates plummet outside of these units. The lower survival rates for cardiac arrest that occur outside of the coronary care unit may relate to the time elapsed between the onset of ventricular fibrillation and first defibrillation.

Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) terminate ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) with high efficacy. ICDs improve mortality in patients after survived sudden cardiac death (SCD) and in patients at high risk of dying suddenly. All trials which show a benefit of ICD therapy, have performed some kind of defibrillation testing in order to prove correct system function, sensing of VF and effective defibrillation. Current devices show a shock efficacy of 80–90 % for singular shocks and devices provide up to seven rescue shocks. The probability that a device doe

Abstract:
Sudden cardiac death following cardiac arrest is a major killer in the industrialised world. The leading cause of sudden cardiac death are disturbances in the normal electrical activation of cardiac tissue, known as cardiac arrhythmia, which severely compromise the ability of the heart to fulfill the body's demand of oxygen. Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is the most deadly form of cardiac arrhythmia. Furthermore, electrical defibrillation through the application of strong electric shocks to the heart is the only effective therapy against VF. Over the past decades, a large body of research has

Background: Synchronised cardioversion (SC) is used to terminate tachycardic arrhythmia by applying electric current to the thorax. SC is synchronised to the R wave of the cardiac cycle and ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF) can occur if an electrical shock is provided in a nonsynchronised way. Case Presentation: Here we present a case of a 66-year-old man who had elective cardioversion for atrial fibrillation worsened by severe left ventricular impairment.
