What Is a Heart Defibrillator?
An important 20th century development in the medical field was the creation and advancement of the heart defibrillator. This device utilizes electric charges to shock the heart and establish a normal heartbeat. The heart defibrillator is used when the heart muscles are contracting abnormally, which obstructs blood flow. This device can jolt the heart muscle to correct its behavior and re-establish blood flow.
