Abstract
A cardiac net with at least one electrode enhances the pacing effect on a ventricle. The cardiac net with at least one electrode includes non-conductive portions formed by weaving non-conductive or conductive thread, defibrillation electrodes, and pacing electrodes, which are connected to one another. The defibrillation electrodes are configured to cover the circumference of the heart substantially horizontally, and are placed on an upper side and a lower side of the heart. The pacing electrodes are placed between the defibrillation electrodes and used for sensing the motions of the heart and pacing the ventricle. The pacing electrodes are configured to cover the circumference of the heart substantially horizontally so as to overlay the center of a spiral wave reentry. This configuration allows excitatory stimulus to be applied to the heart from the circumference thereof, thereby enabling the pacing electrodes to perform effective pacing.
