After multiple hospital evaluations, heart transplantation was considered, and the patient was readmitted on April 25, 2023, for planned left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation.Considering ...

For ventricular fibrillation (V-fib) or pulseless ventricular tachycardia (V-tach), initial unsynchronized shocks of 120 J biphasic and 200 J monophasic are usually sufficient to convert.

This new entity, termed arrhythmic MVP or malignant MVP, is associated with biphasic or inverted T waves in the inferior ECG leads, complex or pleomorphic premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), ...

Ventricular tachycardia is a heart rhythm disorder, or arrhythmia, caused by abnormal electrical signals in the ventricles—the two lower chambers of the heart.

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a major complication of myocardial infarction (MI) as it carries a substantial risk of death. VT can occur late after the MI as a result of scar remodeling, with areas ...

The normally biphasic atrioventricular waveform appears uniphasic with fusion of the ... M-mode echocardiography revealing a supraventricular tachycardia with 1:1 atrial-to-ventricular conduction.

Background: Biphasic waveforms have become the predominant choice for defibrillation of cardiac arrest due to pulseless ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation (VT/VF). However, little is ...

The T-wave usually is represented by an upward deflection, but may also be biphasic or negative. Intrepreting an ECG. There are several steps to interpreting an ECG, but a key step is identification ...

For cardioversion of a broad complex tachycardia and atrial fibrillation, 120-150 Joules (J) biphasic (200J monophasic) is recommended initially. For cardioversion of a regular narrow complex ...

Use of this device indicated that therapy for organized ventricular tachycardia was also ... but the use of biphasic wave forms improved defibrillation thresholds. 11 Defibrillation administered ...
