Response time optimization for drone-delivered automated external defibrillators [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) claims over 400,000 lives each year in North America and is one of the most time-sensitive medical emergencies. Drone-delivered automated external defibrillators (AEDs) have the potential to be a transformative innovation in the provision of emergency care for OHCA.

Favourable cost-benefit in an early defibrillation program using dual dispatch of ambulance and fire services in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest [PDF]

Aims: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is fatal without treatment and time to defibrillation is an extremely important factor in relation to survival.

New‐Onset Device‐Detected Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Atrial Floating Dipole Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillators: A Propensity Score‐Matched Comparison With Conventional Dual‐Chamber Systems

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Device‐detected subclinical atrial fibrillation (DDAF) is a significant risk factor for major cardiovascular events, especially in implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) recipients. The DX ICD, which utilizes a single ventricular lead with a floating atrial dipole, has demonstrated superior performance in diagnosing DDAF ...

Coronary Spasm Due to Pulsed Field Ablation: A State‐of‐the‐Art Review

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the ever‐growing population of patients undergoing cardiac ablation with pulsed electric fields, there is a need to understand secondary effects from the therapy. Coronary artery spasm is one such effect that has recently emerged as the subject of further investigation in electrophysiology literature.

Routine DFT testing in patients undergoing ICD implantation does not improve mortality: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2018
Defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing has been an integral part of implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) implantation to confirm appropriate sensing of ventricular fibrillation and to establish an adequate safety margin for defibrillation ...

Robust Defibrillator Deployment Under Cardiac Arrest Location Uncertainty via Row-and-Column Generation [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
Sudden cardiac arrest is a significant public health concern. Successful treatment of cardiac arrest is extremely time sensitive, and use of an automated external defibrillator (AED) where possible significantly increases the probability of survival. Placement of AEDs in public locations can improve survival by enabling bystanders to treat victims of ...

Optical Mapping of Ventricular Defibrillation in Isolated Swine Right Ventricles Demonstration of a Postshock Isoelectric Window After Near-Threshold [PDF]

, 2001
BACKGROUND: Investigators who studied ventricular defibrillation by use of optical mapping techniques failed to observe an initial defibrillation event (isoelectric window or quiescent period) shown by electrode mapping studies.
