  • Page 162: Pace/Defib Core Engine

    Pace/Defib Core Engine The R Series P/D Core Engine is an independent module with its own controller. It generates pace and defib therapeutic energies when supplied with appropriate high power (10 - 15A @ 10V min - 18V max), low power (+12, +5, +3.3, -5), serial communication commands, and digital signals. Direct digital signals are provided to reduce timing delays on critical signals - an example is the SYNC signal used to synchronize the defibrillator pulse.

    The software attempts to establish a P/D setting that reflects an estimate of the battery ESR. This is to avoid shutdown due to loading of the DC bus. Tables have been prepared on the basis of nominal R Series operating conditions without the printer operating. We will rely on the defib module throttling to handle additional load conditions (such as printer).

To ensure patient safety, connect the R Series only to equipment with galvanically isolated circuits. Use only high-quality ECG electrodes. ECG electrodes are for rhythm acquisition only; you cannot use ECG electrodes for defibrillation or pacing.
  • Page 198 Restarting the Defibrillator Certain events require the R Series products to be restarted after they shut off or become inoperative (for example, when the battery runs down and the unit shuts off). In such a case, always try to restore defibrillator operation as follows: 1.

  • Page 391: Batteries

    Batteries When the patient is less than 8 years old or weighs less than 55 lb. (25 kg), use ZOLL pediatric defibrillation electrodes. Do not delay therapy to determine the patient’s exact age or weight. Batteries R Series products use an easily replaced rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack (the ZOLL SurePower battery pack).
  • Page 392: Safety Considerations

    Turn the Mode Selector to OFF, MONITOR, or PACER. • Change the selected defibrillator energy. • For safety, the R Series unit automatically disarms if left charged for more than either 60 or 120 seconds (user configurable) if the SHOCK button is not pressed.

    Warnings The R Series should be installed and put into service according to the EMC information in Appendix A of this manual. Assess the Wi-Fi performance for the possibility of RFI in your environment of use. If multiple devices are transmitting simultaneously to the same access point, Wi-Fi data transfer will be slowed down.

    Restarting the Defibrillator Certain events require the R Series products to be restarted after they shut off or become inoperative (for example, when the battery runs down and the unit shuts off). In such a case, always try to restore defibrillator operation as follows: 1.
  • Page 397 If restarted after a shutdown period of 10 seconds or more, the unit restores all settings (such as ECG lead, ECG size, and alarm state and limits) to their power-up default values.

    ECG Monitoring ECG leads are a defibrillation-protected Type CF patient connection. The R Series products can be used for either short- or long-term ECG monitoring.

Monitoring electrodes, however, can become polarized during defibrillator discharge, causing the ECG trace to briefly disappear from the screen.

    Attach conventional ECG electrodes for diagnostic purposes. Note: Under certain clinical circumstances, the R Series heart rate counting system may respond to narrow, high-amplitude spikes in the ECG signal (e.g., 10 msec duration, 1 mV peak-to-peak amplitude) leading to miscounting of the patient’s heart rate. Do not rely on heart rate meters if the ECG waveform contains narrow, high-amplitude spikes.
