The 1990's heralded a new era of transthoracic defibrillation in which the rules of conventional practice no longer apply. Seeking waveform designs more efficient than the traditional monophasic ...
Among patients with refractory ventricular fibrillation (VF), survival to hospital discharge was more frequent with double sequential external defibrillation (DSED) and vector-change (VC) ...
Despite advances in defibrillation technology, shock-refractory ventricular fibrillation remains common during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Double sequential external defibrillation (DSED; rapid ...
