Defibrillators use electrical shocks to restore a normal heart rate, especially in cases of life threatening arrhythmias or sudden cardiac arrest, while pacemakers use low-energy electrical pulses to ...

Defibrillators and pacemakers help the heart maintain a regular rhythm. Defibrillators deliver a shock if the heart goes into arrhythmia. Pacemakers use electrical impulses to keep the heart from ...
