Abstract
A patient monitoring device (20) employing an ECG monitor (24) and a controller (26). In operation, the ECG monitor (24) monitors a corrupted ECG waveform (30), and the controller (26) classifies the corrupted ECG waveform (30) as one of a non-shockable rhythm or a potentially shockable rhythm. The corrupted ECG waveform (30) is classified by the controller (26) as the non-shockable rhythm responsive to a detection by the controller (26) of a presence of an asystole rhythm within the corrupted ECG waveform (30). Conversely, the corrupted ECG waveform (30) is classified by the controller (26) as the potentially shockable rhythm responsive to a detection by the controller (26) of an absence of the asystole rhythm within the corrupted ECG waveform (30) or an indetermination by the controller (26) as to the presence of the asystole rhythm within the corrupted ECG waveform (30).
