Most modern defibrillator was implanted in Košice

Automatic self-aligning defibrillator, which controls the heart rate, was for the first time implanted in East Slovak Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases in Košice. This kind of device was first commercially used in October last year in France. Defibrillator automatically adjusts the parameters, which have been until now adjusted only by the less accurate echocardiography test.
