Supports optimal defibrillation technique in practice; leaves open prospective trials on specific impedance strategies.
A narrative review emphasizing the critical role of minimizing transthoracic impedance to ensure adequate transthoracic current flow for successful defibrillation.
Daniel Sado (2005) conducted a review in Cardiac arrest and ventricular fibrillation. Defibrillation techniques was evaluated.
