Abstract
A method and apparatus for applying an asymmetric biphasic exponential waveform countershock to the heart useful in an implantable cardioverter or defibrillator, wherein the second phase has a start amplitude of substantially one half that of the first phase, and wherein the polarity of a capacitor discharging through a current path including the heart is reversed. A voltage reversing circuit may include a voltage shifter which shifts voltage associated with switching elements in the circuit to reduce voltage stresses in the switching elements.
