Pre-shock waveform analysis for optimizing the timing of shock delivery could be immensely helpful to emergency medical personnel in treating ventricular fibrillation. For this purpose, our proposed method resolves the pre-shock surface electrocardiogram into independent sources using a blind source separation approach. The electrocardiogram pre-shock waveforms were transformed into the wavelet domain...
Ventricular Fibrillation (VF) is a cardiac arrhythmia for which the only available treatment option is defibrillation by electrical shock. Existing literature indicates that VF could be the manifestation of different sources controlling the heart with different degrees of organization. In this work we test the hypothesis that the pre-shock waveforms of successful and unsuccessful shock outcomes could...
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is the most lethal of cardiac arrhythmias that leads to sudden cardiac death if untreated within minutes of its occurrence. Defibrillation using electric shock resets the heart to return to spontaneous circulation (ROSC) state, however the success of which depends on various factors such as the viability of myocardium and the time lag between the onset of VF to defibrillation...
