System and method for detection enhancement programming
First Claim
1. A method of enabling detection enhancements selected from a plurality of detection enhancements, comprising:
- providing a plurality of clinical rhythms, including a first clinical rhythm;
associating each of the detection enhancements with the clinical rhythms, wherein associating includes associating first and second detection enhancements with the first clinical rhythm;
selecting the first clinical rhythm;
when the first clinical rhythm is selected, automatically setting parameters associated with the first and second detection enhancements;
determining if a user wishes to make changes to the parameters; and
if the user wishes to make changes to the parameters, modifying one or more of the parameters under user control.

Abstract
A system and method of enabling detection enhancements selected from a plurality of detection enhancements. In a system having a plurality of clinical rhythms, including a first clinical rhythm, where each of the detection enhancements is associated with the clinical rhythms, the first clinical rhythm is selected. The first clinical rhythm is associated with first and second detection enhancements. When the first clinical rhythm is selected, parameters of the first and second detection enhancements are set automatically. A determination is made as to whether changes are to be made to the parameters. If so, one or more of the parameters are modified under user control.

7. A shock therapy system, comprising:
-
a defibrillator;
a programmer; and
a communications link between the defibrillator and the programmer;
wherein the programmer includes;
