ventricular fibrillation
The amount of current that it takes to cause ventricular fibrillation is?
6-30 milliamperes
If certain conditions exist current levels as low as can be fatal?
Current as low a one milliampere at 60 hertz, applied directly across the heart, can cause irreversible ventricular fibrillation.

What condition is an irregular quivering action of the atria and a very rapid ventricular heartbeat?
"atrial fibrillation" is the irregular quivering action of the atria, which in turn, may cause "palpitations" (the awareness of an irregular heartbeat) and/or "tachycardia" (rapid heartbeat).
What is the minimum amount of current enough to kill a man?
100mA of 60Hz AC current for three seconds can cause ventricular fibrillation. From "Deleterious Effecst of Eelctric Shock", Charles F. Dalziel.
Why we have AED's?
Persons heart stops (Oh no, heart attack, if only I had an AED to bring him back!) (Look! AED! Use it!) (Bzzt!) Hes back! Real answer: Most common cause of Cardiac arrest, is Ventricular Fibrillation. This is frequently reversible when an AED is used immediately.....
What refers to the bruise caused by blunt trauma to the skin?
A bruise is a contusion. Bruises or contusions are not really classified, but the cause and injury to other structures are classified, such as "blunt trauma". Most bruising in healthy individuals is not a cause for alarm. The injury to other structures is the concern.Note: Unusual bruising without injury can also be a cause for concern.
What is a ventricular tachycardia?
Ventricular tachycardia-- A rapid heart beat, usually over 100 beats per minute.
Is atrial fibrillation cause of disability?
yes,it is. lots have said no but yes.
