Application of models of defibrillation to human defibrillation data: Implications for optimizing implantable defibrillator capacitance

Theoretical models predict that optimal capacitance for implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) is proportional to the time-dependent parameter of the strength-duration relationship. The hyperbolic model gives this relationship for average current in terms of the chronaxie (t(c)). The exponen...
