Graded response and restitution hypotheses of ventricular vulnerability to fibrillation: Insights into the mechanism of initiation of fabrillation
Abstract: According to the upper limit of vulnerability (ULV), failed defibrillation (DF) shocks reinitiate ventricular fibrillation (VF) by falling on the vulnerable period of one or more of the fibrillation wavefronts. The failed shock first induces reentry (stage I VF), which within few cycles ...
