There is provided piezoelectric devices for restoring normal contraction rhythms of a heart, or for pacing a heart, comprising a housing having an electrically conducting portion, a piezoelectric generator within the housing and electrically insulated from the housing, the piezoelectric generator having first and second electrical conductors, the first conductor being electrically connected to the electrically conducting portion of the housing, an electrically conductive skin contact electrode having a skin contact portion, the electrode being electrically insulated from the conducting portion of the housing, and being in electrical connection with the second conductor, and an actuator for actuating the piezoelectric generator to generate an electrical current in response to stimuli from a user. There is further provided methods for restoring normal contraction rhythms of a heart in cardiac arrest, or for pacing a heart, comprising the administering an electric shock from a piezoelectric device to the chest area of a mammal proximal the heart. The use of a piezoelectric device for such functions is also provided.
