Usually between 120-200. The older ones delivered much more, some as high as 400 joules, but they also had a tendency of giving the patient third degree burns.
The AED output is in joules (J); an energy output. Energy is an Amp Ohm divided by time. Although AED's may vary on their output, depending on numerous criteria, some AED's will shock at 200J, then 300J, then 360J.
The starting joules should be 100-120. This will generally result in 90% first shock success in patients with persistent A-Fib.
50.75 joules of energy equates to about 12.1 calories.
A defibrillator should typically deliver an initial energy of around 150-200 joules for ventricular fibrillation, and up to 360 joules for refractory ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia. The specific energy level will depend on the device and the patient's condition.
You can purchase a HeartStart Onsite defibrillator on Amazon The company that makes the defibrillator is Phillips. Many lives are saved by home defibrillators.
A petajoule is 1015 joules (Quadrillion joules)
There are 56,000 joules in 56 kilojoules. This is because there are 1,000 joules in a kilojoule.
36.72 joules.
31.22 joules.
There are 1,000,000 joules in a megajoule.
No, because a defibrillator has no processor in it. All that a defibrillator does is run electricity through your heart to get it started. Now the machines that monitor your heart, they have processors, but not a defibrillator.
119 joules per coulombCharges don't get joules as they flow through a circuit. They lose them.Every coulomb of charge that flows through a circuit ... from one terminal of a119-volt power supply, around the circuit, and back to the other terminal ...loses 119 joules during the trip.
