Electroporation may limit near-electrode damage during defibrillation; leaves open whether this mechanism alters clinical shock protocols or requires in vivo confirmation.
Electroporation during defibrillation shocks limits excessive transmembrane potential growth near electrodes, potentially preventing tissue damage without impairing shock delivery to distant myocardium.
Wanda Krassowska (1995) studied this question.
