Etymology
From mid- + shock.
adv
- Occurring during or at the midpoint of shock“The current in biphasic waveforms flows in a bidirectional pattern between the paddles (i.e., the direction of current flow reverses midshock as opposed to the unidirectional pattern seen with monophasic waveforms), resulting in a lower defibrillation threshold.”
noun
- The midpoint or any intervening point during the process of shock“Observational data on the earth's bow shock system are classified and characterized. Foreshock components, midshock components, and aftershock components are discussed separately.”
