Lack of resuscitation skills of nurses and doctors in basic life support (BLS) and advanced
life support (ALS) has been identified as a contributing factor to poor outcomes of cardiac …

Intense electric shocks of nanosecond (ns) duration can become a new modality for more
efficient but safer defibrillation. We extended strength-duration curves for excitation of …

Background Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is a common health problem associated with high
levels of mortality. Cardiac arrest is caused by three groups of dysrhythmias: ventricular …

Objective To systematically evaluate the evidence of the effect of advanced life support
techniques on outcome in veterinary cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and to outline …

The ability to respond quickly and effectively to a cardiac arrest situation rests on nurses
being competent in the emergency life-saving procedure of cardiopulmonary resuscitation …

Objective Optimal timing for subsequent defibrillation attempts for Out-of-hospital cardiac
arrest (OHCA) patients with recurrent VF/pVT is uncertain. We investigated the relationship …

Background—Ventricular fibrillation (VF) waveform properties have been shown to predict
