Abstract

An antitachycardia device, either implanted or external, which delivers a fixed pulse width truncated exponential waveform defibrillation shock and automatically adjusts the pulse duration based upon the impedance measured or calculated following a delivered shock. The apparatus operates by measuring or calculating the high voltage system impedance, selecting a pulse width for that impedance value and using a pulse width derived from the selected pulse width for the next defibrillation shock.
