ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A two-stage apparatus for cardioverting a malfunctioning heart conserves power by a first-stage detector for discrimina- ting between a normal cardiac state and a state requiring cardioversion; a powering circuit for continually powering the first-stage detector; a seoond-stage detector for further discriminating between a normal cardiac state and a state requiring cardioversion, normally in a stand-by condition and going to an active full power sensing condition upon initia- tion by the first-stage detector circuitry for enabling the second-stage detector and for thereby bringing the second- stage detector from its stand-by condition to its full power active sensing condition; a control device for powering the second-stage detector only upon said first-stage detector sensing a cardiac state requiring cardioversion; a device for delivering cardioverting energy to the heart; and circuitry for actuating the delivery means upon the second-stage detector sensing a cardiac state requiring cardioversion.
