Parameter Detail
RHYTHMx® ECG Analysis
The AED RHYTHMx ECG Analysis system analyzes the
Performance
patient’s ECG and advises you when the AED detects a
shockable or non-shockable rhythm.
This system makes it possible for a person, with no
training in the interpretation of ECG rhythms, to offer
defibrillation therapy to victims of sudden cardiac arrest.
With a new battery, after the AED has delivered 15 300VE
shocks, the maximum time from beginning rhythm
analysis until the AED is ready to shock is 17 seconds.
