Abstract
The invention relates to a stimulation device for electrotherapy, in particular a defibrillator device and/or external pacemaker device, comprising at least two contact electrodes, which can be applied to the body of a patient at suitable stimulation positions and by means of which current pulses can be applied to the body of the patient, the first of the at least two contact electrodes acting as a charging electrode having positive polarity, and the second of the at least two contact electrodes acting as a discharging electrode having negative polarity with respect to an emitted current pulse, and with a current pulse generator, which is or can be connected to the contact electrodes by means of line connections. The invention further relates to a method for determining the polarity of contact electrodes applied to the body of a patient.
