Application of Entropy-Based Features to Predict Defibrillation Outcome in Cardiac Arrest

Application of Entropy-Based Features to Predict Defibrillation Outcome in Cardiac Arrest

Prediction of defibrillation success is of vital importance to guide therapy and improve the survival of patients suffering out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Currently, the most efficient methods to predict shock success are based on the analysis of the electrocardiogram (ECG) during ventricula...
