Locally propagated activation immediately after internal defibrillation.
BACKGROUND Electrical mapping studies indicate an interval of 40 to 100 ms between a defibrillation shock and the earliest activation that propagates globally over the ventricles (globally propagated activation, GPA). This study determined whether activation occurs during this interval but propagates only locally before being blocked (locally propagated activation, LPA). METHODS AND RESULTS I...
متن کاملLeft ventricular geometry immediately following defibrillation: shock-induced relaxation.
A previous two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound study suggested that there is relaxation of the myocardium after defibrillation. The 2D study could not measure activity occurring within the first 33 ms after the shock, a period that may be critical for discriminating between shock- and excitation-induced relaxation. The objective of our study was to determine the left ventricular (LV) geometry durin...
متن کاملImmediate defibrillation or defibrillation after cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to determine whether short cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by emergency medical services before defibrillation (CPR first) has a better outcome than immediate defibrillation followed by CPR (shock first) in patients with ventricular fibrillation/pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VF/pulseless VT) out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. METHODS We analyzed a national da...
متن کاملAdditional coronary sinus shocking lead as rescue therapy after multiple internal and external defibrillation failures
High defibrillation threshold (DFT) and defibrillation failure can lead to intractable ventricular arrhythmias. Additional coronary sinus coil is an effective strategy to achieve marked reduction in DFT. However, physicians should retain this might prevent future coronary sinus lead placement in case the patient would develop complete left bundle branch block.
متن کاملUnexpected complications immediately after cranioplasty
Case An 84-year-old man with subarachnoid hemorrhage underwent craniotomy and clipping with external decompression. Perfusion magnetic resonance imaging showed subclinical sinking skin flap syndrome, and he underwent cranioplasty on postoperative day 58. No problems occurred during the operation, but cerebral edema and hemorrhage were recognized on immediate postoperative computed tomography. E...
