Abstract:Early detection and defibrillation of ventricular fibrillation (VF) has been associated with improved survival of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients treated with automated external defibrillators (AEDs). This study proposes a method for VF detection using ECGs obtained from OHCA patients. The dataset of the study contained 596 10-s ECG segments, 144 shockable and 452 nonshockable, from 169 OHCA patients. The dataset was split patient-wise into training (60%) and test (40%) sets. Each ECG segment wa… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
