ABSTRACT:
The present invention uses switches to set the topology and polarity of a circuit that includes capacitors to deliver an electric pulse to a heart during a defibrillation procedure. The waveform of the electric pulse is biphasic, in that it is a positive portion of the pulse followed by a negative portion of the pulse. The topology and polarity of the circuit are utilized to produce a waveform that approximates the ideal waveform for the specific situation. The circuit provides for combinations of capacitors variously in series and in parallel and changing the topology and polarity of the circuit during discharge of the capacitors.
