Intraoperative Defibrillation Testing of Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillator Systems—A Simple Issue?

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
Background: The results of the recently published randomized SIMPLE trial question the role of routine intraoperative defibrillation testing. However, testing is still recommended during implantation of the entirely subcutaneous implantable cardioverter ...

Terminating spiral waves with a single designed stimulus: Teleportation as the mechanism for defibrillation [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Many chemical and biological systems can sustain complex spiral wave dynamics. In the heart, spiral waves of electrical activity induce deadly arrhythmias and must be eliminated with a large, system-wide perturbation to restore a healthy ...

Optimizing Outcomes After Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest With Innovative Approaches to Public-Access Defibrillation: A Scientific Statement From the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation.

Circulation, 2022
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a global public health issue experienced by ≈3.8 million people annually. Only 8% to 12% survive to hospital discharge.

Smartphone-activated volunteer responders and bystander defibrillation for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in private homes and public locations

European heart journal. Acute cardiovascular care, 2022
Aims To investigate the association between the arrival of smartphone-activated volunteer responders before the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and bystander defibrillation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) at home and public locations.

Epinephrine before defibrillation in patients with shockable in-hospital cardiac arrest: propensity matched analysis

British medical journal, 2021
Objective To determine the use of epinephrine (adrenaline) before defibrillation for treatment of in-hospital cardiac arrest due to a ventricular arrhythmia and examine its association with patient survival. Design Propensity matched analysis.

Alert system-supported lay defibrillation and basic life-support for cardiac arrest at home

European Heart Journal, 2021
Aims Automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are placed in public, but the majority of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) occur at home. Methods and results In residential areas, 785 AEDs were placed and 5735 volunteer responders were recruited. For

Combining Amplitude Spectrum Area with Previous Shock Information Using Neural Networks Improves Prediction Performance of Defibrillation Outcome for Subsequent Shocks in Out-Of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Patients

PLoS ONE, 2016
Objective Quantitative ventricular fibrillation (VF) waveform analysis is a potentially powerful tool to optimize defibrillation. However, whether combining VF features with additional attributes that related to the previous shock could enhance the ...
