High perimeter impedance defibrillation electrodes reduce skin burns in transthoracic cardioversion.

Abstract

During cardioversion, skin burns result from current preferentially flowing at the electrode edge. We tested new electrodes with high perimeter impedance to yield more uniform current distribution; these electrodes reduced histopathologic skin injury.
