A member asked:
Please explain why is cardiac arrthymia contraindicated for electrical stimulation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Arrhythmia: You need to ask your question better. We do use electrical stimulation for brady arrhythmias and also for some tachyarrhythmias. There are situations when we wouldn't want to introduce electrical stimulation.
