Heart defibrillation: relationship between pacing threshold and defibrillation probability

Abstract Background Considering the clinical importance of the ventricular fibrillation and that the most used therapy to reverse it has a critical side effect on the cardiac tissue, it is desirable to optimize defibrillation parameters to increase its efficiency. In this study, we investigated the...
