The Ventricular Fibrillation Electrocardiogram
Presently, resuscitation is guided by a standardised protocol which includes only rhythm detection for decision support. We suggest an extended diagnostics, which is primarily based on the ventricular fibrillation (VF) ECG and provides information on the physiological status of the patient. Thereby, the removal of artefacts resulting from cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) becomes desirable. The performance of different VF ECG parameters ...
