a small device used to resuscitate victims of sudden cardiac arrest
A device designed to deliver precise electrical shocks to the heart to stop Ventricular Fibrillation and Tachycardia. It usually consists of 2 paddles which are pressed on either side of the heart, and a shock is delivered. Contrary to popular belief, these do not "jump start" the heart, but actually reset it. These devices come in 3 types: manual, semi-automatic and automatic. They often have an integral EKG monitor and an external pacemaker.
A device that can automatically recognize a disorganized heart rhythm, such as ventricular fibrillation, and shock the heart. This can restore a normal heart rhythm.
A machine which delivers a controlled electric pulse across the chest to make the heart restart when it has stopped beating effectively. Only usually effective when the heart is in VF.
A machine to stabilize normal contraction rhythms.
A device that monitors the heartbeat. It gives out a high-energy electrical impulse to stop very fast and abnormal heartbeats and returns the heart to a normal rhythm. It can be external (placed on the chest) or internal (surgically placed in the chest).
An electronic device that helps re-establish normal contraction rhythms in a malfunctioning heart.
an electronic device used to reestablish normal heartbeat.
Emergency machine to restore normal heart rhythm using an electric shock.
the device used to give an electrical shock to a person to restore heart's normal rhythm. It can be given externally, via the surface of the chest, or internally (implanted).
A device that can deliver electrical current to the heart to treat arrhythmias. Many are portable and have electrocardiographic monitoring capacity. Manual defibrillators require the operator to read and interpret the ECG tracing, and may require specific steps to program and administer the electric shock. Automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are portable devices that contain sophisticated electronics to monitor and identify the cardiac rhythm. The AED will only permit the operator to deliver the shock if ventricular fibrillation or certain ventricular tachycardias are detected.
A device that delivers an electric shock to the myocardium through the chest wall.
an internal or external device that can deliver an electric shock to stop extremely rapid and irregular heartbeats and return the heart to a normal rhythm.
A device that delivers pacing or an electric countershock to the heart when an abnormal rhythm is detected. A surgically implantable version is called a pacemaker.
an electronic device used to establish normal heartbeat by delivering an electric shock.
A device used to correct a dangerously abnormal heart rhythm, usually ventricular fibrillation, or to restart the heart by depolarizing its electrical conduction system and delivering brief measured electrical shocks to the chest wall or the heart muscle itself.
Machine used to deliver an electrical shock to the chest to stop ventricular fibrillation.
A device that monitors heart rhythm. If it detects an abnormal rhythm such as ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation, it delivers a shock to the heart to return it back to normal rhythm. See also implantable defibrillator.
An electrical device use to terminate atrial or ventricular fibrillation. High-voltage electrical shock is delivered to the heart through two paddles placed on the patient's chest.
A defibrillator is a device which administers a controlled electric shock to restore normal heart rhythm in cases of cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation (chaotic and abnormal pumping of the heart which does not allow the heart to pump blood effectively and is due to a disease or medical complication). The defibrillator administers the shock either through electrodes placed externally on the chest wall over the heart or directly to the heart after the chest has been opened surgically.
is a device used to re-establish a normal heart rhythm by delivering an electrical shock to the heart. Defibrillators can be implanted in those patients who have life-threatening arrhythmias.
Machine used to deliver an electric shock to the heart to correct abnormal fast Heart Rhythm
Also called implanted cardiac defibrillator (ICD). A pacemaker-like device that continuously monitors the heart rhythm and delivers lifesaving shocks if a dangerous heart rhythm is detected.
an electronic device used to establish a normal heartbeat.
A defibrillator is a medical device used in the defibrillation of the heart. It consists of a central unit and a set of two electrodes. The central unit provides a source of power and control.
