Determinants of successful transthoracic defibrillation and outcome in ventricular fibrillation.
OBJECTIVE To examine factors determining defibrillation success and outcome in patients with ventricular fibrillation. DESIGN Observational prospective study of age, sex, transthoracic impedance, site of cardiac arrest, ventricular fibrillation duration and amplitude, primary or secondary ventricular fibrillation, aetiology, number of shocks to correct ventricular fibrillation, and drug treat...
متن کاملEarly predictors of outcome in comatose survivors of ventricular fibrillation and non-ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest treated with hypothermia: a prospective study.
OBJECTIVES Current indications for therapeutic hypothermia (TH) are restricted to comatose patients with cardiac arrest (CA) due to ventricular fibrillation (VF) and without circulatory shock. Additional studies are needed to evaluate the benefit of this treatment in more heterogeneous groups of patients, including those with non-VF rhythms and/or shock and to identify early predictors of outco...

متن کاملEnergy drink overconsumption can trigger atrial fibrillation.
To the Editor Many adverse cardiac effects have been reported following energy drinks consumption, among which atrial arrhythmias, acute coronary syndromes, and even cardiac arrest. These can develop also in the absence of other symptoms related to acute toxicity, such as neurological symptoms. Considering the absence of specific toxicological tests, the diagnosis of energy drink intoxication s...
