ABSTRACT:
A defibrillator having a connector utilizing a plurality of ports aligned therein to accommodate sensing leads, and positive and negative defibrillator electrode leads. The positive defibrillator leads are internally connected in common and can facilitate the use of two positive defibrillator leads. Alternative embodiments illustrate methods of having different post polarities for use in situations where having different electrode polarities is beneficial. Other alternative embodiments illustrate methods for limiting current or EMF through one of the commonly wire defibrillator ports.
