Methods for Decreasing the Risk of Ventricular Fibrillation
- 詳細技術說明
- The present invention relates to a method of identifying strategies for the treatment and prevention of ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia
- *Abstract
-
The present invention relates to a method of identifying strategies for the treatment and prevention of ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia.
Potential Commercial Applications
- New protocol for the initiation of ventricular fibrillation.
- Provides a model to study VF that more closely simulates its actual occurrence.
Potential Advantages
- A clinically-oriented computer model of VF was developed, with significant implications for further research on treatment and prevention of VF.
- This technology artificially recreates VF more realistically, whereas other existing methods of inducing VF do not satisfactorily approximate its clinical occurrence.
- While current treatments and preventative therapies have little or no effect on VF, and while defibrillators can cause cardiac muscle damage, this innovation provides a more suitable model for studying treatments and therapies.
