Standby Automatic Defibrillator: An Approach to Prevention of Sudden Coronary Death
Abstract
A laboratory model of an automatic standby defibrillator has been designed, developed, and tested successfully on dogs. Approximately 50 seconds after a sensor located in the right ventricle detects ventricular fibrillation, a discharge of the order of 30 to 50 wattseconds is delivered automatically to the heart through two electrodes, one which represents an integral part of the intracardiac sensing catheter, and the other positioned under the skin or on the surface of the anterior chest wall. In the event of successful defibrillation the device reverts to a standby condition. It is suggested that this device, when adapted for clinical use, might be implanted temporarily or permanently in selected patients particularly prone to develop ventricular fibrillation and thus provide them with some degree of protection from sudden coronary death.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
