Abstract
An implantable heart defibrillator for use with an electrode lead system is provided. The implantable heart defibrillator includes an electrode lead connector that is connectable to the electrode lead system. A sensor is operable to sense a condition of a heart and emit a condition signal that identifies the condition. A control unit is operable to identify whether a state of fibrillation exists from the condition signal and emit a command signal if the state of fibrillation exists. A shock pulse generator is operable to emit at least one defibrillation shock to the electrode lead connector upon receipt of the command signal. The at least one defibrillation shock comprises at least one pulse having a voltage of more than 600 volts and a time duration of 30 to 100 microseconds.
