Automated external defibrillator with shortened pause for rhythm analysis

An automated external defibrillator (AED) is described which includes two electrocardiogram (ECG) analyzers. One of the ECG analyzers is suitable for use only for ECG which is signal-noise-free, and thus may be used during "hands-off" analysis periods in which no cardiopulmonary resuscitat...

Zusammenfassung:	An automated external defibrillator (AED) is described which includes two electrocardiogram (ECG) analyzers. One of the ECG analyzers is suitable for use only for ECG which is signal-noise-free, and thus may be used during "hands-off" analysis periods in which no cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) compressions can be provided. The length of the "hands-off" analysis period can be shortened by use of the second ECG analyzer in concert with the first ECG analyzer. Thus, a greater proportion of CPR time through the course of a cardiac arrest rescue is achieved.
