Early versus Later Rhythm Analysis in Patients with Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest [PDF]
Background In a departure from the previous strategy of immediate defibrillation, the 2005 resuscitation guidelines from the American Heart Association–International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation suggested that emergency medical service (EMS ...

Abstract Background Prehospital emergencies require providers to rapidly identify patients’ medical condition and determine treatment needs. We tested whether medics’ initial, written impressions of patient condition contain information that can help identify patients who require prehospital lifesaving interventions (LSI) prior to or during transport ...

Model Checking Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators [PDF]
Ventricular Fibrillation is a disorganized electrical excitation of the heart that results in inadequate blood flow to the body. It usually ends in death within seconds. The most common way to treat the symptoms of fibrillation is to implant a medical device, known as an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD), in the patient's body.

Azygos vein lead implantation: a therapeutic option for elevated defibrillation threshold.
The evaluation of the defibrillation threshold (DFT) during the implantation of a cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) is an important stage of the procedure, as a high DFT can be found in up to 16% of patients.
