N2 - This work proposes a new algorithm and analytical methods for predicting the successful rate of a defibrillation during ventricular fibrillation. Accurate predictions help in improving outcomes of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. This also helps in finding a good defibrillation timing to avoid ineffective defibrillation, which leads to myocardial damages and thus a poor prognosis after the resuscitation. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms conventional methods in terms of several commonly used performance indices; meanwhile, the proposed analysis also well matches the practical experimental results.
