About this document

Monophasic vs Biphasic Defibrillation by chanlal is a document available to read on EtoBox.

(1) Actibiphasic defibrillation uses a biphasic waveform that delivers a lower energy shock compared to monophasic defibrillation, reducing the risk of cardiac damage. (2) It employs a truncated exponential waveform for the first phase and a second phase of constant power and duration of less than 4 ms to achieve defibrillation in under 20 ms. (3) Studies show actibiphasic defibrillation is effective at 75% of the energy required for monophasic defibrillation.
