“…13 In agreement with this hypothesis, we showed in a separate study that direct timing of the defibrillating shock to monophasic action potentials recorded from a low-voltage-gradient region also reduced defibrillation threshold. 8 When probability-of-success curves were generated for "early" and "late" shocks, we found that I 50 for early shocks was 17% lower than that for late shocks. This corresponds to an Ϸ30% decrease in energy.…”
