Kinetics of defibrillation shock-induced response: design implications for the optimal defibrillation waveform
2002
Europace
Conclusions The time constant of the membrane depends on the field, action potential phase and the shock polarity, but exceeds 1 msec. Therefore, we suggest using a slower shock leading edge, since the membrane cannot follow potentially damaging faster waveforms.
