     This statement is filed pursuant to Rule 13d-2(a) with
respect to the shares of common stock, $.02 par value (the
"Common Stock") of Zoll Medical Corporation (the "Issuer")
beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons specified herein
as of August 3, 1998 and amends and supplements the Schedule
13D dated January 8, 1998, as amended on January 23, 1998,
February 20, 1998, April 17, 1998, May 11, 1998 and May 26,
1998 (the "Schedule 13D").  Except as set forth herein, the
Schedule 13D is hereby restated in its entirety.

purchases of the Common Stock beneficially owned by it are set
forth below.

     The source and amount of funds used by Westgate in

are set forth below.

SOURCE OF FUNDS                    AMOUNT OF FUNDS
Margin accounts maintained at      $3,262,483.31
Goldman Sachs, Smith Barney
and Paine Webber

ITEM 4.   Purpose of Transaction

     Each of Elliott and Westgate acquired the Common Stock
beneficially owned by it in the ordinary course of its trade
or business of purchasing, selling, trading and investing in
securities.  Martley has acted as investment manager with
respect to Westgate's acquisition of beneficial ownership of
Common Stock.

     Depending upon market conditions and other factors that
it may deem material, including the Issuer's adoption and
possible deployment of a "Poison Pill" in the form of a
Stockholders Rights Plan (the "Plan"), each of Elliott and
Westgate may purchase additional shares of Common Stock or
related securities or may dispose of all or a portion of the
Common Stock or related securities that it now beneficially
owns or may hereafter acquire.

     The Issuer's operating performance and the market price
of the Common Stock is of profound concern to Elliott and
Westgate.  On June 18, 1998, Elliott and Westgate had an
introductory meeting with the Issuer's management.  However,
there were no substantive discussions at this meeting because
the Issuer had recently adopted the Plan and therefore,
Elliott and Westgate were each afraid of being deemed an
"adverse person," as described below.  Elliott and Westgate
then sought another meeting with the Issuer's management to
discuss ideas that Elliott and Westgate believed would result
in the creation of shareholder value and which Elliott and
Westgate would only undertake with the approval of the
Issuer's Board of Directors.  Despite these efforts, the
Issuer's management did not make itself available to discuss
these important issues with Elliott and Westgate and left
Elliott and Westgate with doubts as to management's commitment
to increasing shareholder value.

     Because the Issuer's management did not make itself
available for such a meeting and because of the adoption of
the Plan, on August 3, 1998, Elliott and Westgate were forced
to file a complaint against the Issuer and its Board of
Directors with the U.S. District Court in the District of
Massachusetts to protect its rights as a shareholder of Common
Stock.  The complaint asks the court to grant the following
relief: (i) a declaratory judgment that the Plan is invalid,
null, and void as applied to Elliott's and Westgate's
potential proxy solicitation efforts and that Elliott and
Westgate may not be declared "adverse persons" under the Plan
if they choose to nominate directors, make shareholder
proposals, or engage in a proxy solicitation, and a
preliminary and permanent injunction enjoining the Issuer from
enforcing or using the Plan against Elliott's and Westgate's
potential proxy solicitation efforts; (ii) a declaratory
judgment that the Issuer may not advance the date of its next
annual meeting so as to deny Elliott and Westgate a reasonable
time within which to present nominees for director and
shareholder proposals for consideration at such meeting, and a
preliminary and permanent injunction enjoining the Issuer from
manipulating the meeting date to deny Elliott and Westgate
such a reasonable time or impeding the conduct of business or
voting of shares of Common Stock, by proxy or otherwise, by
Elliott and Westgate at such meeting; and (iii) an order that
the Issuer provide Elliott and Westgate with a copy of the
Issuer's shareholder list.

     If Elliott and Westgate are successful in obtaining such
relief, they will likely solicit proxies for the election of
two directors at the Issuer's next annual meeting and for the
support of shareholder proposals which they believe could
increase shareholder value for all of the holders of Common
Stock.

     In addition, although Elliott and Westgate originally
purchased the Common Stock beneficially owned by them for
investment purposes, they continue to consider ways to
maximize the shareholder value of the Issuer, which, depending
on the outcome of the litigation described above, may include,
without limitation, potential changes in the operations and/or
capital structure of the Issuer, entry into a joint venture or
a strategic partnership, acquisition of another company or
business or a possible change in control of the Issuer.  In
addition, Elliott and Westgate are discussing and, depending
of the outcome of the litigation described above, may in the
future discuss such possibilities with others including,
without limitation, other shareholders of the Issuer.

     None of Elliott, Westgate or Martley currently has any 
definitive plans or proposals, other than those described
above, which relate to or would result in any of the actions
set forth in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4.
