His bundle activates faster than ventricular myocardium during prolonged ventricular fibrillation.
The Purkinje fiber system has recently been implicated as an important driver of the rapid activation rate during long duration ventricular fibrillation (VF>2 minutes). The goal of this study is to determine whether this activity propagates to or occurs in the proximal specialized conduction syst...
