Abstract: . . . the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in the community, drug therapies for control of arrhythmias associated with ACS, the use of implantable cardiac defibrillators (ICDs) and the value of potential treatments in patients who develop atrial fibrillation following coronary artery bypass surgery. SIGN . . . . . . surgery. This session examines evidence around the prevention and management of arrhythmias associated with cardiac arrest, acute coronary syndromes, chronic coronary artery disease and coronary artery bypass surgery. Key questions addressed in the guideline include the effectiveness of interventions to stabilise heart rhythm in the emergency phase, the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in the community, drug therapies for control of arrhythmias associated with ACS, the use of implantable cardiac defibrillators (ICDs) and the value of potential treatments in patients who . . . . . . arrhythmias which may occur months or years after the original event. Cardiac arrhythmias also arise as complications to coronary artery bypass surgery. This session examines evidence around the prevention and management of arrhythmias associated with cardiac arrest, acute coronary syndromes, chronic coronary artery disease and coronary artery bypass surgery. Key questions addressed in the guideline include the effectiveness of interventions to stabilise heart rhythm in the emergency phase, the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in the community, drug therapies for control . . . --1970,3,328,1926,9848
