Abstract
A uni-cable paddle system comprising two paddles with contact surfaces, and a main cable connected at one of its ends to one of the paddles, e.g., the sternum paddle. An inter-paddle cable connects the sternum and apex paddles. The main cable has two high-voltage (HV) wires. One of the HV wires is connected to the contact surface of the sternum paddle; the other HV wire is connected to the apex paddle's contact surface via a HV wire in the inter-paddle cable. Control switches and display indicators may be located on the paddles; the wires for these additional functions may be integrated into the main and inter-paddle cables.
