Delivering alternating currency (AC) to right ventricular endocardium to induce ventricular fibrillation (VF) in mice is complicated. We tried to validate whether transoesophageal AC stimulation could induce VF and how long AC stimulation had to be sustained to prevent the spontaneous cardioversion of VF in mice. ⋯ VF can be induced by a short period of transoesophageal AC stimulation in mice. However, prolonged AC stimulation is prone to induce PEA other than VF. Nonetheless, the development of a mouse CA model in this manner is simpler and easier, which may have practical significance for facilitating experimental investigation on CA and CPR.
