ABSTRACT:
Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is detected by comparing the electrocardiogram (ECG) waveform of the patient's heart against a stored library of compilation of waveform characteristics of various heart conditions as recorded by an ECG. Since the waveform for ventricular fibrillation of arrythmias are completely unformed compexes, disorganized and irregular, the presence or absence of any of the stored or library features in the patient ECG is used as the criteria for diagnosing VF and automatically subjecting the patient to a prescribed electroshock therapy.
