Is there any Link Between Vitamin D and Recurrence of Atrial Fibrillation after Cardioversion? [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery
Introduction: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common chronic arrhythmia in the elderly population. In symptomatic patients, restoration and maintenance of sinus rhythm improve quality of life.

Electron-positron pair oscillation in spatially inhomogeneous electric fields and radiation [PDF]

Phys.Lett.B691:99-104,2010, 2010
It is known that strong electric fields produce electron and positron pairs from the vacuum, and due to the back-reaction these pairs oscillate back and forth coherently with the alternating electric fields in time. We study this phenomenon in spatially inhomogeneous and bound electric fields by integrating the equations of energymomentum and particle ...

Therapeutic indices for transchest defibrillator shocks: Effective, damaging, and lethal electrical doses [PDF]

, 1980
Although prospective studies of defibrillator shock overdose cannot be performed in man, the therapeutic indices of various defibrillating current waveforms can be measured in animals.

Impact of major hurricanes on electric energy production [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
After major hurricanes, electric production is significantly reduced owing to not only electric infrastructure destruction, but also the economic crisis associated with damage to private and public activities. The full restoration of the electric infrastructure is not always simultaneously performed with the full restoration of electric production ...

Electrical cardioversion during pregnancy: safe or not? [PDF]

, 2011
Two pregnant patients with a sustained symptomatic maternal supraventricular arrhythmia are presented. Both patients were treated with direct-current cardioversion.

Effectiveness of alternative shock strategies for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: A systematic review

Resuscitation Plus, 2022
Aim: To determine the optimal first-shock energy level for biphasic defibrillation and whether fixed or escalating protocols for subsequent shocks are most effective.
