Getting a belt from box.

Not consultant or layman will know this one. Does it leave any damage on heart from a shock?

Shocking

If you are asking whether a full Jesus Jolt from a defibrillator can cause damage to the heart muscle, the answer is yes it can. That doesn't mean it will, but it can. But here's the real question...just how much damage would be done if you weren't shocked. Then again, if you weren't shocked I guess it wouldn't matter.

Thanks for your answer, I couldn't get a definitive answer from a few cardiology. It's food for thought I suppose,  I must have had at least 15 shocks of various strengths, so I must have at least some damage.  Regards. Chris.
