Abstract
A defibrillator designed to determine and display (1) the current which is anticipated to be provided to a patient by a defibrillation pulse generated by the defibrillator when the former is to be provided in the form of an energy dose and (2) the energy which is anticipated to be provided to a patient by a defibrillation pulse generated by the defibrillator when the former is to be provided in the form of a current dose. The defibrillator is also designed to determine and display how changes in the transthoracic impedance of the patient will change (1) the magnitude of the selected energy level of the defibrillation pulse when the defibrillator is in the energy dose mode and (2) the magnitude of the selected current level of the defibrillation pulse when the defibrillator is in the current dose mode.
