Figure 5 Mean current versus shock success of triphasic (4.8/4.8/4.8 ms) and biphasic (7.2/7.2 ms) waveform shocks of equal-duration pulses for all pigs in part I. Triphasic shocks with mean currents of 6 and 8.4 Amperes, generated by selected energy shocks of 50 and 100 J, achieved higher success than biphasic shocks (n = 32).
