Advantage of four-electrode over two-electrode defibrillators [PDF]

, 2015
Defibrillation is the standard clinical treatment used to stop ventricular fibrillation. An electrical device delivers a controlled amount of electrical energy via a pair of electrodes in order to reestablish the normal heart rate.

External defibrillation on an implantable defibrillator [PDF]

Journal of Anesthesia, 2013
To the Editor: Despite the best efforts of healthcare providers, guideline-conform treatment failure is expected to occur, particularly in real-world emergency situations [1]. In the case reported here, a 79-year-old man with a history of coronary artery disease and implantation of a cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) presented to the emergency room with

A Computational Journey Toward an Optimal Design for Metamaterial Epicardial Passive Sleeves

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Passive epicardial sleeves are evaluated in 3D in‐silico heart models to reveal how sleeve geometry, stiffness, anisotropy, and metamaterial architecture influence cardiac mechanics after myocardial infarction. A continuum‐to‐auxetic design exploration shows that region‐specific mechanical engagement can reduce infarct bulging and modulate torsional ...

Lay Bystanders' Perspectives on What Facilitates Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Use of Automated External Defibrillators in Real Cardiac Arrests

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
Background Many patients who suffer an out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest will fail to receive bystander intervention (cardiopulmonary resuscitation [CPR] or defibrillation) despite widespread CPR training and the dissemination of automated external ...
