Press the Async Pacing On/Off softkey

Note:
The display shows "ASYNC PACE" to indicate that asynchronous pacing has been activated.
The annotation "ASYNC PACE" is also printed on the stripchart when activated by the
RECORDER button, and printed on the corresponding summary report. To return to demand
pacing, press the ASYNC Pacing On/Off softkey again. The display returns to "PACE."

Options
Pace stimuli are also delivered asynchronously whenever there is an ECG LEAD OFF
condition. Due to the lead off condition, no ECG waveforms will be displayed when pacing by
this method. Use other means to determine capture such as checking the patient's pulse
When asynchronously pacing with an ECG LEAD OFF condition, the rate and mA should be
set at the known capture level or high enough (100mA) to presume capture.

Pediatric Pacing

Noninvasive pacing of pediatric patients is performed in an identical manner to adult pacing.
Smaller size pediatric therapy electrodes are available for patients weighing less than 55 lbs/25
kg. Continuous pacing of neonates can cause skin burns. If it is necessary to pace for more than
30 minutes, periodic inspection of the underlying skin is strongly advised. Carefully follow all
instructions on electrode packaging.
