Abstract

Embodiments of a wearable cardioverter defibrillator (WCD) system include a support structure for wearing by an ambulatory patient and at least one processor. When worn, the support structure maintains electrodes on the patient's body, and using the patient's ECG received via the electrodes, the processor determines widths of the QRS complexes, consistency of the QRS complexes, and/or heart rate and uses these determinations to make no-shock, delay-shock, and shock decisions. Shock decisions can be made for heart rates lower than a VF threshold.
