Defibrillation - from single-phase waves to two-phase wave.docVIP

 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 7 Defibrillation - from single-phase waves to two-phase wave [Keywords:] defibrillation; single-phase waves; two-phase wave As a first-aid techniques, defibrillation come out so far, half a century, nearly two to three decades DC defibrillation is widely used in clinical. Defibrillation indications, including indications for emergency indications and choice. Emergency indication for ventricular fibrillation (VF) of cardiac arrest, but also a prelude to ventricular fibrillation - pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular flutter (room flutter), its mode of non-synchronous ; select indications include the emergence of hemodynamic barriers and ineffective drug treatment of certain rapid ectopic arrhythmia (particularly those concerned with the return), or atrial fibrillation and flutter, supraventricular tachycardia and ventricular speed, its mode of synchronous mode. Defibrillation, whether synchronous or asynchronous electric defibrillation, all through the defibrillator to be implemented. A defibrillator in the structure and principle Defibrillator circuit structure, including power supply, charging circuit and discharge circuit, and the corresponding control circuit. In electrical defibrillation, the defibrillator according to the selected energy levels begin to charge the capacitor, the formation of a few kV high-voltage, and equipment back to the human heart the instantaneous release of a powerful electrical pulse. The relevant formula is: Energy = current * voltage * time; current = voltage / resistance. According to the direction of current pulse through the heart, is divided into single-phase wave defibrillator defibrillator and bipolar wave defibrillator. Single-phase release of a one-way wave defibrillator current pulse, biphasic wave defibrillator has so far released two opposite direction of the current pulse. 2 single-phase wave defibrillator Single-phase wave defibrillator is divided into single-phase sine wav
