Analysis/CPR Protocol Defibrillation
When the X Series unit is configured for Analysis/CPR Protocol defibrillation, the unit guides
you through a cardiac event by performing ECG analysis, preparing the device for a shock (if
needed), and leading you through a CPR interval. This cycle is repeated as long as
Analysis/CPR Protocol is active and pads are attached to the patient. If pads become detached
from the patient or shorted during rescue protocol, the protocol halts until the pads are
reattached or continues through the CPR interval and then halts and waits for the pads to be
reattached.
If you press the Energy Select Up/Down arrow keys or CHARGE button while in
Analysis/CPR Protocol mode, the unit transitions to Manual mode. If the unit is charged when
you transition from Analysis/CPR Protocol to Manual mode, the unit disarms and halts any
analysis that is taking place.
The Analysis/CPR Protocol function can be activated only when:
The unit is configured for Analysis/CPR Protocol.
•
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.
