Abstract
A defibrillator (AED) and method for using a defibrillator incorporates a user activated button truncates an ongoing ECG analysis to immediately perform a different defibrillator-related function. The AED may use two different ECG analysis algorithms having different sensitivities to a shockable cardiac rhythm, and a press of the button may automatically shift from a first algorithm to a second algorithm with the higher sensitivity. The button may also allow truncation of ongoing analysis and CPR for immediate preparation for electrotherapy.
