DEFIBRILLATOR/PACEMAKER

摘要

A monolithic device (10) for providing defibrillation and pacing of a heart by engaging pacing circuitry once defibrillation has been accomplished. Defibrillation and pacing of a human heart from outside the body employs defibrillation circuitry having an electromotive force of less than or equal to approximately 200 volts. Digital circuitry for generating a direct current waveform to the heart is employed.
