Abstract
An external defibrillator apparatus () operates to deliver electrical shocks to the heart muscles of a patient using a self-contained piezoelectric power source. The apparatus has a body () which includes a handle portion () in fixed operative connection with disposed paddle portions (). Each paddle portion includes a respective electrode (). Manual movement of a trigger () is operative to cause circuitry () which includes a piezoelectric crystal () to develop sufficient electrical potential between the electrodes to deliver the electrical shocks to the heart muscles through external contact with the patient's chest.
