    Can you give a sentence or something that it was used in to give us the context in how it was used?

    Asystole means that there is no cardiac activity in the heart. This is usually when the patient is pronounced dead after a certain time of rescusitation (sic) efforts.

    Asystole is basically when the heart is no longer beating. I guess that's an easier way to explain it. LOL N0Help
