We have fairly exciting news to report surrounding the very lethal cardiac rhythm disturbance V-Fib (ventricular fibrillation). This very sudden and deadly “electric explosion” that occurs inside the hearts of both old and young alike has long eluded scientists and researchers.
The new research suggest that the tornado like activity of V-Fib and its electrical waves is organized into spiral vortices, no matter what species of mammal is experiencing the VF. These vortices or rotors as they are sometimes called, keep the heart’s pumping chambers from pumping in sync, thus disorganized impulses and ultimately death.
The paper also shows that across …read more
