GENDER DIFFERENCES IN AMPLITUDE SPECTRAL AREA (AMSA) OF VENTRICULAR FIBRILLATION IN PATIENTS WITH OUT-OF-HOSPITAL CARDIAC ARREST
Anno:
2023
Introduction: Ventricular fibrillation (VF) Amplitude Spectral Area (AMSA) is  a well-established predictor of successful defibrillation and return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Attending to the limited evidence on the topic, gender seems to affect AMSA, and  higher values have been reported in females. The aim of this work was to…
Ventricular fibrillation spectral area (AMSA) and low-energy shock success prediction in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
Anno:
2023
Introduction. In case of cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation (VF) or pulseless ventricular tachycardia (pVT), the optimal energy level for defibrillation is that which achieves defibrillation and minimize the current-induced myocardial damage. Therefore, it would be reasonable to reduce the energy level as well as the number of…
