ABSTRACT:
A programmable implantable medical device utilizable for delivering a configurable defibrillation waveform to a patient's heart. The device includes defibrillation electrode means adapted to be connected to the heart for delivering a multiphasic defibrillation waveform thereto. A programmable waveform generator connected to the heart generates the biphasic waveform such that the first phase of the defibrillation waveform has programmed tilt and the second phase has a duration which is a function of the duration of the first phase.
