Pacing and Defibrillating with the Same Electrodes
In order to both pace and defibrillate a patient through the same set of electrodes, you will need
the "Hands-Off" Adapter Cable (MDE part #E2700-66), the Multifunction Adapter (MDE part
#E2700-89), as well as disposable adhesive electrodes. See the following for proper connection:
1. Apply MDE disposable adhesive defib/pace electrodes as shown in section "Using
Defibrillator and Pacer Paddles and Electrodes".
2. Connect the multifunction adapter (MDE part #E2700-89) and hands-off adapter cable (MDE
part #E2700-66) behind the monitor on the defib/pacer base as shown:
3. Tighten the larger locking ring on the multifunction adapter first, followed by the smaller
ring, and make sure that all connections are secure.
4. Follow steps # 3 through 9 of "To Pace with Dedicated Electrodes" in section "Operating
the Pacer".
