Sorry Flying Dutch, you misunderstand.

The narrative printed out by the computer is normally WRONG. It uses a very simple algorythm and even a bit of movement can lead to life threatening diagnoses. The doctor, be it an AME or the CAA, will look at the actual waveforms and 'read' the ECG not the junk from the computer.

So I agree, if you are dead you probably wont pass the medical, but if the ECG says dead and you are alive you will.
