1. A defibrillation assembly energizable through pad removal, comprising:
a defibrillator, comprising:
an electromechanical component;
an energy storage element that supplies power to an entirety of circuitry of the defibrillator via the electromechanical component;
the entirety of the circuitry of the defibrillator, at least a portion of the circuitry configured to generate a defibrillation waveform, wherein the entirety of the circuitry is isolated from the energy storage element by the electromechanical component and wherein the entirety of the circuitry is electrically unbiased when the power is not flowing from the energy storage element to the entirety of the circuitry through the electromechanical component; and
electrode pads through which the defibrillation waveform is delivered to a patient, wherein a removal of at least one of the electrode pads from an initial position to a further position causes the power to flow to the entirety of the circuitry through the electro-mechanical component.
