    Abstract: A method (100) for using an automated external defibrillator (AED) (310), the method comprising: receiving (120), during an active CPR protocol, a signal indicative of motion or lack of motion of the individual; analyzing (130), by the controller, the received signal to determine whether the individual is undergoing motion; providing (140) a direction to begin or continue chest compressions if the controller determines from the received signal that the individual is not undergoing motion; analyzing (150), by the controller, a received ECG signal to determine whether the individual could benefit from a shock delivered from the AED; interrupting (160) the active CPR protocol, if the individual is not undergoing motion and if the individual could benefit from a shock delivered from the AED; and delivering (170) a shock to the individual.

    Abstract: A defibrillator (AED) using an ECG analysis model or algorithm which can function in two different modes. The ECG analysis model is particularly suited for analysis during periods of CPR. Both modes of operation reach a shock decision in essentially the same way, where one or more ECG data segments indicate a shockable cardiac condition. In one mode of operation, the shock decision is irreversible once made. In another mode of operation, the shock decision is reversible if one or more subsequent ECG data segments indicate a no-shock decision. Improved specificity of the model is obtained without undue degradation of sensitivity to shockable ECG.
