Abstract:Studies have shown that de¯brillation threshold for current amplitude of biphasic truncated exponential (BTE) waveform has a hyperbolic strengthÀduration relationship. Theoretical and experimental results have shown that decreasing the tilt of BTE waveforms decreases the de¯brillation threshold. On the other hand, low peak current waveform reduces probability of myocardium damage and burn. Therefore, achieving a waveform with low tilt and low peak current is desired. All DC de¯brillators use a capacitor to sto… Show more
