The Subcutaneous Defibrillator

Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2017
The transvenous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) has been shown in multiple studies to be effective in the prevention of sudden cardiac death in select populations. The Achilles heel of traditional ICD technology has been the transvenous lead.

Automated defibrillation

Emergency Nurse, 2011
There is much evidence that defibrillation is the most effective treatment for cardiac arrest caused by ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia, but only where automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are installed and staff are trained to use them.

Pharmacologic defibrillation

Critical Care Medicine, 2002
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is generally sustained. The mechanism is, at least in part, caused by progressive accumulation of intracellular sodium and calcium ions during untreated ventricular fibrillation, which subsequently increases defibrillation threshold.

Advances in defibrillation

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2011
The place of defibrillation in the chain of survival is paramount and this review covers advances in this aspect of resuscitation over the past 18 months.The main advance is the publication of 2010 European Resuscitation Council guidelines of which defibrillation is a key aspect.

Cardioversion and defibrillation

American Heart Journal, 1980
The use of electrical energy for the immediate treatment of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias is practical and easily applied. The method, though simple, is the most effective method for terminating cardiac arrhythmias and is associated with only a low risk if properly employed. In symptomatic patients, the utilization of cardioversion reduces patient

Tachyarrhythmias and Defibrillation

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2008
Although cardiac arrhythmias less commonly cause hemodynamic compromise in children than in adults, prompt recognition and treatment of arrhythmias remain an important part of pediatric resuscitation because of the availability of specific, effective therapies.

Transtelephonic defibrillation

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1989
This study was undertaken to assess the safety and reliability of a device for transtelephonic defibrillation.The transtelephonic system consists of a patient unit and a base station. The patient unit contains a monitor-defibrillator, electrode pads, microphone, microprocessor, and DC defibrillator. The base station comprises a control panel, computer,

Wearable Defibrillator

The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing, 2002
Technological advances have increased life expectancy and improved quality of life for patients with heart disease. A new device, called the wearable defibrillator, is designed to provide monitoring and defibrillation capability for patients who have had an infarct and those awaiting heart transplantation.
