RHYTHMx ECG ANALYSIS PERFORMANCE
The AED RHYTHMx ECG Analysis system analyzes the 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.
