Reporters - Do they think people who know dont read?

[Richard B the EMT]

Is or are synchronized shocks just a deliverable shock the machine times to fire at the correct moment of the PQRST sequence of the patient? Remember, I am BLS, but have seen the setting on the defibs with "through the paddles quick read" function. Also, I usually carry it for the Paramedics, but don't play with it, as I'm "afeared o' hurtin' meself".
