Among patients with refractory ventricular fibrillation (VF), survival to hospital discharge was more frequent with double sequential external defibrillation (DSED) and vector-change (VC) ...

Depending on how the heart’s electrical activity appears on an EKG, a doctor may diagnose coarse or fine ventricular fibrillation (VF). Coarse VF appears as larger waves on an EKG compared with the ...

Shock-refractory ventricular fibrillation is common during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Alternative defibrillation techniques might improve outcomes in these patients. New research findings are ...

In patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) who have an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD), the use of digoxin may increase the risk of ventricular tachyarrhythmia ...
