Filter by:In this study, changes in electroencephalogram (EEG) and the hemodynamic state during ventricular fibrillation or induced ventricular tachycardia are investigated.
Analysis of the patients' data who were rescued with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and without ECMO. The survival rate and the weaning rate were analyzed to see the effect of ECMO on the prolonged CPR.
The present standard of care for the management of unstable ventricular tachycardia (VT) in the setting of chronic coronary artery disease is the placement of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) after the initial episode, and radiofrequency ablation and/or antiarrhythmic medication in the event of recurrences causing frequent ICD interventions. The primary purpose of this randomized study is the assessment of recurrences of unstable VT in patients who undergo ICD implantation plus substrate ablation after the initial episode compared to patients who only undergo ICD implantation. Thus the primary purpose is an improvement in the quality of life. A decrease in mortality is not a primary purpose of this study.
The Dual Chamber & Atrial Tachyarrhythmias Adverse Events Study (DATAS) was designed to analyze the ability of dual chamber ICDs, to reduce clinically significant adverse events as compared to single chamber ICD in a non selected population with conventional indication of ICD implantation.
To compare the efficacy of RV and BiV ATP for the termination of ventricular arrhythmias in patients who are candidates to a cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) and have a Class I or IIA indication for ICD implantation. The hypothesis of delivering ATP from different sites (RV or BIV) has never been evaluated in a prospective, controlled and randomized study.
The purpose of this study is to estimate and quantify the difference in efficacy of two sequences of ATP therapies (burst 15 pulses, 88% versus burst 8 pulses, 88%) during an episode of spontaneous rhythms classified as fast ventricular tachycardia (FVT) via ventricular fibrillation (VF) in patients who have a Class I or II A indication for ICD implantation, and thus to promote the "painless" therapy aspect of ICD treatment and improve quality of life outcomes for patients.
To determine whether the administration of test article will decrease the occurrence of ventricular arrhythmias in patients who have acute coronary syndrome (unstable angina, ST segment elevated myocardial infarction or myocardial infarction without ST elevation).
To screen by electrocardiography the entire population of 1,400 individuals in seven Amish Mennonite communities in order to perform genetic linkage studies of long QT syndrome (LQTS).
To determine if the dietary N-3 class of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) provided in the diet largely from marine fish oils would prevent fatal ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF).
To determine the antiarrhythmic effects of dietary N-3 fatty acids in patients with implanted defibrillators.
