Diazepam in cardioversion [PDF]
Canadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1971 Ce travail decrit nos experiences au cours de 161 cardioversions par courant direct, dont 76 ont ete pratiquees sous anesthesie au diazepam seul et 85 sous anesthesie par divers agents. Generalement le premier choc etait de 100 watts seconde, et les suivants, si besoin, allaient en s’accroissant a partir de 100 watts seconde. Dans le groupe du diazepam,
