Shaping of Biphasic Defibrillation Pulses with Stepwise Shape Regulation and Fixed Duration

  • Published:
Biomedical Engineering Aims and scope

A defibrillator pulse generator designed by E. E. Gorokhov-Miroshnikov for generation of biphasic defibrillation pulses with stepwise regulation of shape and optimum fixed duration (~10 ms) in the range of load impedance 25-175 Ω is presented. The generator, built using relatively low-cost electronic components, provides a high stored energy utilization coefficient. The main characteristics of the biphasic pulse generated by the prototype of generator are given. The design features of the generator are described.
