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 ...

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

Empirical Ablation to Prevent Sequential Purkinje System Recruitment

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2021
We report 3 cases (mean age 48.3 ± 11.6 years) of idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF), in which a triggering premature ventricular complex leading to IVF could not be identified.

Atrial fibrillation and preexcitation - A licence to kill

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2020
Atrial fibrillation becomes a potentially lethal arrhythmia in the presence of preexcitation because the rapid ventricular activation can result in ventricular fibrillation.

Nifekalant

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2020
Atrial fibrillation along with accessory pathway–induced ventricular pre-excitation may be life-threatening due to the high risk of developing severe hypotension, ventricular fibrillation, and sudden death. We demonstrate nifekalant as an effective agent

Frequency Characteristics of Rhythm Non-Assimilation in Canine Ventricular Fibrillation

open access: yesОбщая реаниматология, 2010
Ventricular fibrillation is the main cause of sudden cardiac death in many countries, including Russia; therefore to study ventricular fibrillation is an urgent problem.

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.

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.

Діастолічна функція лівого шлуночка та рівень N-кінцевого промозкового натрійуретичного пептиду у хворих на фібриляцію передсердь

open access: yesMedičnì Perspektivi, 2013
In our study 100 consecutive non-valvular permanent atrial fibrillation patients with NYHA I – III heart failure, 43 - 86 years old (65 men and 35 women) were examined. Control group consisted of 30 patients with arterial hypertension and coronary artery
