  2. Ventricular tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_tachycardia

    Ventricular tachycardia may lead to coma and persistent vegetative state due to lack of blood and oxygen to the brain. Ventricular tachycardia may result in ventricular fibrillation (VF) and turn into cardiac arrest. [2] [3] This conversion of the VT into VF is called the degeneration of the VT. It is found initially in about 7% of people in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Ventricular_tachycardia

    Having V-tach is really dangerous and can develop into another dangerous rhythm Ventricular fibrillation, both of these require immediate medical attention. VT is treated with cardioversion, either drug cardioversion or electrical cardioversion. Drug cardioversion involves a drug treatment that aims to lower the heart rate back to a normal rhythm.

  4. H.264/MPEG-4 AVC products and implementations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC_products...

    The encoder conforms to Main Profile and the decoder supports Constrained Baseline and most of Main Profile. [1] Additionally, iChat and FaceTime use H.264, as do many other Apple applications, such as Compressor. BT Group offers a modular implementation of H.264. Written in C++, it has been ported to various platforms from PCs to mobile phones.

  5. Defibrillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defibrillation

    Defibrillation is a treatment for life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias, specifically ventricular fibrillation (V-Fib) and non-perfusing ventricular tachycardia (V-Tach). [1] [2] A defibrillator delivers a dose of electric current (often called a counter-shock) to the heart.

  6. Ventricular flutter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_flutter

    Ventricular flutter is an arrhythmia, more specifically a tachycardia affecting the ventricles with a rate over 250-350 beats/min, and one of the most indiscernible. It is characterized on the ECG by a sinusoidal waveform without clear definition of the QRS and T waves.

    Given a received vector maximum likelihood decoding picks a codeword that maximizes (),that is, the codeword that maximizes the probability that was received, given that was sent.

  8. Cardioversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardioversion

    However, if a patient is confirmed to be in pulseless ventricular tachycardia "v-tach" or ventricular fibrillation "v-fib", then a shock is delivered immediately upon connection of the pads. In this application, electrical cardioversion is more properly termed defibrillation.

  9. Ventricular fibrillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_fibrillation

    Ventricular fibrillation (V-fib or VF) is an abnormal heart rhythm in which the ventricles of the heart quiver. [2] It is due to disorganized electrical activity. [2] Ventricular fibrillation results in cardiac arrest with loss of consciousness and no pulse. [1] This is followed by sudden cardiac death in the absence of treatment. [2]
