<p>The invention provides an automatic implantable defibrillator with the following essential characteristics: a) a circuitry (1,2,3,6,7,8) for reliable recognition of a ventricular fibrillation state b) a paumaker (5) for trying to stop the fibrillation if it is an asystole c) if not, effecting defibrillation not by electrical pulses fed to the heart but by a bolus of medicaments (or solutions under particular physical conditions, such as a cold bolus at 30 DEG C) fed by a hydraulic system (12) into the coronary sinus or into a coronary artery by a retrograde path, to rapidly pervade the coronary circuit.</p> |
