Brief Summary: This study will compare the effect of constant low-level energy 150 joules to an escalating energy 200-300-360 joules regimen of biphasic waveform defibrillation on multiple patient outcomes
Detailed Description: This pilot which will enroll 200 subjects will allow a reasonable estimate of effect size and this will in turn allow for the accurate design and planning of a definitive randomized controlled trial The following outcomes will be evaluated

1 Important Clinical Outcomes

Successful conversion
Resuscitation to one hour
Survival to hospital discharge
Neurological function and
Quality of life
2 Process Outcomes

Number of shocks required
Recurrences of VF and
Responsiveness to varying periods of pulselessness
3 Adverse Outcomes

Myocardial damage
