This supplemental medwatch report is reporting the evaluation of the device.This supplemental medwatch report is also correcting information submitted on the initial medwatch report.Device evaluation: the device was not returned to zoll medical corporation for evaluation.Instead, a clinical data file from the reported incident was provided for review.Review of the clinical data file indicated that five out of eight analysis events performed did not meet the criteria for a shockable event due to the ecg being below one hundred microvolts or presence of motion artifacts caused by cpr compressions during an analysis.After review, it was concluded that the device worked as designed and configured and within the limitations of the technology available.This claim has been closed as device meets specification.No trend is associated with reports of this type.
