At the initiative of Boris Moiseevich Tsukerman in the USSR in 1959, for the first time in the world, the use of electrical impulse therapy for treatment of atrial fibrillation was started. The book presents all the defibrillators, serially produced in the USSR, Russia and Ukraine. The book includes the memoirs of Igor Viktorovich Venin, whose merit is the development of about half of the defibrillators produced in the USSR, Russia and Ukraine from 1952 to 2012.
