1. A method for monitoring patient activity using an external defibrillator, the method comprising:
- receiving information about the patient'"'"'s heart activity;
obtaining data regarding chest compressions performed on the patient;
determining values for depth and rate of a plurality of the chest compressions;
displaying on a graphical display screen of the defibrillator, indications of the determined values for depth and rate and an electrocardiogram trace of the patient'"'"'s heart activity;
wherein displaying the electrocardiogram trace of the patient'"'"'s heart activity comprises displaying an unfiltered electrocardiogram showing compression artifacts, sensing that the chest compressions have commenced on the patient, and displaying a filtered electrocardiogram that filters said chest compression artifacts, and displaying on the graphical display screen of the defibrillator an indication of whether the electrocardiogram is the unfiltered electrocardiogram or the filtered electrocardiogram.

25. An external defibrillator comprising:
-
a graphical display screen; one or more electrodes for receiving information about a patient'"'"'s heart activity; one or more sensors for obtaining data regarding chest compressions performed on the patient; and a processor programmed or configured to; determine values for depth and rate of a plurality of the chest compressions from data obtained by the one or more sensors; and cause the graphical display screen of the defibrillator to display indications of the determined values for depth and rate and an electrocardiogram trace of the patient'"'"'s heart activity, wherein displaying the electrocardiogram trace of the patient'"'"'s heart activity comprises displaying an unfiltered electrocardiogram showing compression artifacts, sensing that the chest compressions have commenced on the patient, and displaying a filtered electrocardiogram that filters said chest compression artifacts, and displaying on the graphical display screen of the defibrillator an indication of whether the electrocardiogram is the unfiltered electrocardiogram or the filtered electrocardiogram. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48)
