Pediatric Pacing - ZOLL X Series Operator's Manual

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 33 lbs/15
kg. 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.
