Asystole
(or as I like to call it: "Asystole check the leads"!)

The standard questions don't really work here..
Is it a tachycardia or a bradycardia?
- No, there are no QRS's at all. But we need to wait for a whole screen to ensure it's not a profound bradycardia
Are the QRS's wide or chaotic?
- No.
Is it shockable?
- No, only the two ventricular rhythms in the assessment are shockable.
