Effects of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid on upper limit of vulnerability shocks
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) can be induced when a strong shock is delivered during the vulnerable period of a cardiac cycle. VF, however, cannot be induced if the shock strength is increased to the "upper limit of vulnerability" (ULV) level. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) has been shown to p...

Ventricular fibrillation (VF) can be induced when a strong shock is delivered during the vulnerable period of a cardiac cycle. VF, however, cannot be induced if the shock strength is increased to the "upper limit of vulnerability" (ULV) level. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) has been shown to prevent the occurrence of VF after coronary occlusion. However, its effects on the ULV have not been verified. We tested the hypothesis that ULV shock strength is decreased after DHA administration. |
