Implication

Hypothesis-generating for nonlinear VF dynamics in animals; leaves open translation to human management.

Structured PICO

Population

Pigs with induced ventricular fibrillation

Intervention

Numerical analysis of electrocardiogram data using surrogate techniques and test statistics (Takens' maximum likelihood estimator and an improved correlation dimension estimation routine)

Outcome

Correlation dimension of the underlying dynamics during the episode of ventricular fibrillation

Electrocardiogram data during induced ventricular fibrillation in pigs exhibits deterministic nonlinearity with a correlation dimension slightly less than 6.
