When the X Series unit is configured for Advisory (or single analysis) defibrillation, the
X Series unit can identify shockable rhythms using its built in ECG analysis capability. You
must read the advisory messages, charge the defibrillator to the preconfigured or user-selected
energy level (if automatic charge is disabled), and deliver treatment to the patient when
required by protocol and patient condition.
The advisory function can be activated only when:
The unit is configured for Single Analysis.
The unit is on and in manual mode.
Hands-free therapy electrodes are properly connected to the patient.
Valid impedance is detected and pacer is off.
Patient mode is not set to neonate.
WARNING!
Use only pediatric electrodes to defibrillate patients under 8 years of age in Advisory
mode, and make sure the patient mode is set to pediatric. Use of adult electrodes or
adult mode with pediatric patients can result in the delivery of excessive energy doses.
