The patient has undergone cardioversion.
In cardioversion, shock delivery is synchronized with the R wave of
the ECG (SYNC). The ECG is derived via the ECG cable.

Risk of injury from movement artifacts when using paddles
for synchronous shock delivery!
Cardioversion cannot be carried out without 6-lead monitoring, as
the device may erroneously detect movement artifacts as R waves
and deliver a shock at the wrong time. This may injure the patient.
Always carry out 6-lead ECG monitoring for synchronous shock
delivery.
