Table 2.

Quality of ventricular fibrillation detection algorithms (positive predictivity (PP), accuracy (Ac), calculation time(ct)) for a window length of 8 seconds. Positive predictivity and accuracy in per cent, rounded on 3 digits; calculation time in per cent of the real time of the data, rounded on 2 digits, wl = window length in seconds.
