Peer Review Suggestions[edit]

Hello! I’ve reviewed the Lead, Medical Uses, Types, and Interface with Person sections of this article for the UCSF Wikipedia Elective. Overall, great work revising this article. Here are some suggestions:

Lead: great expansion of content and references in a simple, easy-to-follow manner

Medical uses: I like the revisions you made to the content and references about outcomes, but I think the first few sentences could be improved for readability

Types: Additional need for references in “manual external defibrillator” section, but good content revisions overall. Good simplification of “manual internal defibrillator” section. “AED” section is a little long. Especially because there is a link to an external article. I might consider cutting down this section, especially the 4th and 5th paragraphs. “Wearable cardiac defibrillator” references “as of February 2011”, which is quite a bit out of date now.

Interface with person: Would add references to this section. Could add a picture of self-adhesive electrodes. Could add a picture for the anterior-posterior scheme. Also should label the current image as anterior-apex scheme.

Hope this is helpful--let me know if you have any questions!

Query Trivia Section[edit]

It notes "This changed in 1990 after Australian media mogul Kerry Packer had a heart attack and, purely by chance, the ambulance that responded to the call carried a defibrillator." But a defibrillator is used for Cardiac Arrest NOT Heart Attack. Did he have a Heart Attack which ledt to a Cardiac Arrest? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.59.137 (talk) 08:18, 17 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Energy only relates to damage, not to shock strength of defibrillation or cardioversion.[edit]

Experiments and research have since a long time established that energy is not a reliable parameter to determine the shock strength. It should be inserted in the article as it gives a better perspective on the relevant mechanisms. 84.58.249.189 (talk) 10:50, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please read IEC 60479-1 and 2. The stimulus amplitude increases with charge, not energy. 84.58.249.189 (talk) 09:58, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
