Ventricular fibrillation (VF) and ventricular tachycardia (VT) are lift-threatening cardiac
arrhythmias that could be catastrophic if no defibrillation shock is applied to the subject …

AIM: To adapt adult automated external defibrillator (AED) arrhythmia analysis algorithms for
paediatric use through the addition of an algorithm to accurately discriminate …

Background: Ventricular fibrillation (VF) and ventricular tachycardia (VT) are frequently
present as initial rhythms during in-hospital cardiac arrest. Although ample evidence exists …

Background Cardiovascular disease and sudden cardiac arrest are the leading causes of
death in the United States. Early defibrillation is key to successful resuscitation for patients …

In order to achieve widespread use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in Italy, we
evaluated several models of AEDs in different clinical and artificial settings. We enrolled 268 …

The sensitivity and specificity to ventricular fibrillation (VF) and ventricular tachycardia (VT),
classified as requiring immediate DC shock, of four automated external defibrillators (AEDs) …

Purpose: In two-tiered emergency medical systems (EMS) basic life support (BLS) first
responders frequently treat patients using automated external defibrillators (AED) …

The use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) has increased the number of survivors of
out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The AED has a high specificity and moderately high sensitivity …

Background Although automated external defibrillators (AED s) have contributed to a better
survival of out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrests, there have been reports of their malfunctioning …
