Taser X26 Discharges in Swine: Ventricular Rhythm Capture is Dependent on Discharge Vector

Abstract

For most transcardiac vectors, Taser X26 caused immediate ventricular rhythm capture. This usually reverted spontaneously to sinus rhythm but potentially fatal VF was seen with two vectors. For some non-transcardiac vectors, capture was also seen but with a significantly (p < 0.0001) decreased incidence.
