® The AED Pro and AED Pro A-W from ZOLL Medical Corporation is a portable, automated external defibrillator (AED) intended for use by trained rescuers to provide emergency defibrillation and to monitor patient ECG during treatment. This Preface contains the following sections: “How To Use This Guide”...
How To Use This Guide The AED Pro Operator’s Guide provides information that operators need for the safe and effective use and care of the AED Pro device. Before operating this device, be sure to read and understand all the information contained within.
Do not disassemble the unit. A shock hazard exists. Refer all problems to authorized service personnel. The AED Pro unit is capable of delivering 200 joules. To completely deactivate the unit, turn it off and remove the battery pack. To manually disarm a charged (or charging) defibrillator, do one of the following: Turn the unit off for at least 3 seconds.
Page 10
Do not discharge the defibrillator except as indicated in the instructions. Discharge the defibrillator only when defibrillation pads are properly attached to the patient. Never discharge the unit with the defibrillation pads shorted together or in open air. viii www.zoll.com 9650-0350-01 Rev. J...
ECG rhythm analysis does not warn of patient asystole, which is not a shockable rhythm. Do not connect the AED Pro to a PC or other device (via the USB port) while the unit’s electrodes are still connected to the patient.
Page 12
Avoid using abrasives (including paper towels) on the display screen and IrDA port. Restarting the Device Certain events require a restart of the AED Pro unit after it shuts off, encounters an error, or becomes inoperative. If such an event occurs, always try to restore device operation as follows before seeking alternative methods of patient monitoring or treatment: 1.

ECG monitoring • To guide the operator through rescue protocols, the AED Pro unit issues instructions through text messages displayed on its screen and by voice prompts played through a speaker. This chapter introduces the AED Pro unit, and contains the following sections: “Defibrillation”...
Semiautomatic Mode Defibrillation and CPR Monitoring When the AED Pro unit is configured to run in semiautomatic mode or semiautomatic mode with manual mode override, the unit starts up in semiautomatic mode unless an AED Pro ECG cable is attached to the unit.
If the AED Pro unit is configured for semiautomatic mode defibrillation with ECG monitoring enabled and manual mode override, and the ECG cable is not attached, the AED Pro unit starts in semiautomatic mode at power up. If the AED Pro unit is configured for manual mode defibrillation, the AED Pro unit runs only in manual mode.
The AED Pro unit records up to 3 minutes of audio data prior to electrode placement. The AED Pro unit can record and store data for only a single rescue when audio recording is enabled — when the electrode pads are placed on the patient, the unit deletes any stored data (ECG, Audio, and Event data) and begins recording data from the current rescue.
Device Configuration The AED Pro unit provides configurable settings that can be used to tailor the device for local rescue protocols and procedures. Using the ZOLL Administration Software on a personal computer, you can view or modify the unit’s configuration.

ZOLL recommends purchasing new batteries every eighteen months or sooner. Recharging and Testing Battery Packs ZOLL battery packs are designed to be charged in ZOLL chargers. ZOLL recommends that you always have a ZOLL auxiliary battery charger available for charging spare battery packs and for routine testing of battery packs.
It is important to visually distinguish battery packs that are charged from those that are not. Establish a system for visually indicating whether a battery pack requires charging or is charged and ready for use. ZOLL can provide battery pack status labels for this purpose, or you can use labels or methods of your own.
Page 108
DO NOT remove a partially charged battery pack from the battery charger. Always fully charge a battery pack before returning it to use. If you must use a partially charged battery pack, be sure to fully charge the pack before its next use. B–4 www.zoll.com 9650-0350-01 Rev. J...
