Additional Information
General Information About Defibrillators Why Defibrillation? Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCR)-Rapid irregular rhythm causing heart to quiver Cause: Ventricular Fibrillation (VF) Can lead to death if emergency shock not delivered Defibrillation – to counteract fibrillation Defibrillator Device used to administer an electric current (shock) to the heart Types of Defibrillators Manual external Manual Internal Automated External (AED) Semi-Automated External Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) Manual External Defibrillator Widely used in Hospitals and clinics Inbuilt EKG reader Clinician Diagnoses the condition and accordingly administers the shock through paddles or pads Manual Internal Defibrillator Exclusively used in Operation Theatres Charge delivered through internal paddles in direct contact with the heart Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Used by lay persons requiring little training Built in heart rhythm analyzer Advices whether shock is required Semi-Automated External Defibrillators Used by paramedics and emergency medical technicians Automated capabilities of AED With ECG display and manual over ride option Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Implants similar to pacemakers Constantly monitor heart rhythm Automatically administers shock for arrhythmias Types of waveform - Shape of defibrillation current Monophasic damped sine waveform – delivers energy in one direction Relies on adjustment of joule settings Biphasic damped sine waveform – bi-directional current flow Measures impedance of patient and delivers precise dose of electricity Uses significantly low energy levels Decreases risk of burn in Myocardial damage
