DALLAS, Nov. 11, 2019 -- Implementing citizen responder programs to answer calls for out-of-hospital cardiac arrests may increase bystander defibrillation in private homes, according to preliminary ...
Most out-of-hospital cardiac arrests are caused by ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia. Electrical defibrillation is the only effective therapy for these Prompt ...
For convenience, we classify these factors into four groups: (1) patient-specific factors, (2) factors related to the ICD system (leads, shock waveform, defibrillation pathway), (3) drug effects, and ...
Defibrillator clocks keep inaccurate time, complicating efforts to determine mortality risk and resu
Chicago, IL - Many models of cardiac defibrillators do not keep accurate time and cannot be relied on to determine collapse-to-defibrillation interval, potentially jeopardizing efforts to assess ...

Article: Defibrillation 1: using an AED outside hospital. Nursing Times; 107: 38, early online publication. Author: Phil Jevon is resuscitation officer and clinical skills lead, Manor Hospital, ...
Defibrillators use electrical shocks to restore a normal heart rate, especially in cases of life threatening arrhythmias or sudden cardiac arrest, while pacemakers use low-energy electrical pulses to ...
Expert guidelines advocate defibrillation within 2 minutes after an in-hospital cardiac arrest caused by ventricular arrhythmia. However, empirical data on the prevalence of delayed defibrillation in ...
Objective To describe neurological outcomes after sudden cardiac arrests (SCAs) in road and long-distance races using a rapid mobile automated external defibrillator system (RMAEDS) intervention.
Automatic external defibrillators are becoming widely used in many walks of life, including supermarkets and airports. Automatic external defibrillators provide an essential part of the chain of life ...
The ambulance drone delivers defibrillation to a mock patient.--Courtesy of TU Delft Drones are used to kill bad guys in war zones, but graduate student Alex Momont wants to use them to save lives. He ...
Implementing citizen responder programs to answer calls for out-of-hospital cardiac arrests may increase bystander defibrillation in private homes, according to preliminary research to be presented at ...
