[QUOTE="NCIllini10, post: 2022878, member: 748584"] It's a common misconception that defibrillators restart hearts. They actually stop hearts from beating by overriding the aberrent electrical impulses causing a heart to beat ineffectively, thereby giving the heart a chance to reset, if you will, and self-restart due to the automaticity of cardiac cells. However, as I am sure that you probably were implying that they provided a needed "jolt of energy" that got the team back on the right track, I wholly agree (figuratively) with your above statement! Sorry, sometimes I can't help myself and my obnoxious side wins out. :cool: [/QUOTE]
