Overview
Open Interventions → Electricity. Choose the Synchronized DCCV action. Effect levels and flow targets represent illustrative modeled responses; they are not clinical dose instructions.
An R-wave-synchronized electrical shock interrupts susceptible tachyarrhythmia circuits while avoiding the vulnerable repolarization period.
The paused reference covers the route (External defibrillator pads in synchronized mode; sedation when feasible.), example doses/settings, indications, adverse effects, contraindications/precautions and monitoring. These details are available after the intervention is selected.
What to monitor in the reference: ECG synchronization, airway, pulse and BP after treatment. Conversion does not guarantee normal cardiac function.
