1. A defibrillator, comprising:
at least two pads for delivering a shock to a patient; each pad having a microneedle array with two or more rows of conductive microneedles; a device for generating a therapeutic current to deliver the shock to the patient through the two pads; and wherein the microneedle array of the two paddles applies a voltage and causes electroporation of a skin surface of the patient and delivers the shock to the patient through the skin surface. |
