Idiopathic Ventricular Fibrillation — Just How Much Idiopathic is it? [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation is diagnosed in survivors of sudden cardiac death that has been caused by ventricular fibrillation without known structural or electrical abnormalities, even after extensive investigation.

Ventricular Fibrillation Is a Sign of Life. [PDF]

open access: yesBraz J Cardiovasc Surg, 2023
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a deadly rhythm problem. With asystole, it represents one of the most extreme emergencies that may engage vital prognosis within only few minutes if appropriated treatment is not instituted. It is learned in all medical schools worldwide that VF is not compatible with consciousness and sustained life. Moreover, at 37°C,

Ventricular fibrillation induced by fever in structurally normal hearts

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a life-threatening arrhythmia that usually happens in patients with structural heart diseases. However, fever-induced ventricular fibrillation in structurally normal hearts was reported, and the four main diseases ...

Identifying Ventricular Arrhythmias and Their Predictors by Applying Machine Learning Methods to Electronic Health Records in Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy(HCM-VAr-Risk Model) [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Cardiology, Volume 123, Issue 10, 15 May 2019, Pages 1681-1689, 2021
Clinical risk stratification for sudden cardiac death (SCD) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC) employs rules derived from American College of Cardiology Foundation/American Heart Association (ACCF/AHA) guidelines or the HCM Risk-SCD model (C-index of 0.69), which utilize a few clinical variables.

Coronary vasospasm as an etiology of recurrent ventricular fibrillation in the absence of coronary artery disease: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2021
Background: Vasospastic angina (VA), or Prinzmetal’s angina, is characterized by symptoms of coronary angina caused by coronary vasospasm, usually in the absence of atherosclerotic changes.

Case report: electrical storm during induced hypothermia in a patient with early repolarization

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2017
Background Population based studies showed an association of early repolarization in the electrocardiogram (ECG) and a higher rate of sudden cardiac death presumably due to ventricular fibrillation.

Improved Cardiac Arrhythmia Prediction Based on Heart Rate Variability Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Many types of ventricular and atrial cardiac arrhythmias have been discovered in clinical practice in the past 100 years, and these arrhythmias are a major contributor to sudden cardiac death. Ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation are the most commonly-occurring and dangerous arrhythmias, therefore early ...

Imaging ventricular fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Electrocardiology, 2007
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) had been traditionally considered as a highly disorganized process of random electrical activity emanating from multiple, short-lived, reentrant electrical waves. It is the incessant breakup of wave fronts and the creation of new daughter waves (wavebreaks) that perpetuate VF. Other studies described VF as a process with a

Long QT syndrome provoked by induction of general anesthesia -A case report- [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2010
Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is an arrhythmogenic cardiovascular disorder resulting from mutations in cardiac ion channels. LQTS is characterized by prolonged ventricular repolarization and frequently manifests itself as QT interval prolongation on the ...
