    ISTA Procedure 2A STAR BIPHASIC WAVEFORM The waveform generated by the Cardiac Science AED is a BIPHASIC TRUNCATED EXPONENTIAL waveform that is compliant with ANSI/AAMI DF2 and DF39. The following is a graph of the waveform voltage as a function of time when the AED is connected to a 50 Ohm resistive load.
  • Page 54 190-260 ENERGY LEVELS AND PATIENT IMPEDANCE The Cardiac Science Biphasic Truncated Exponential (BTE) waveform utilizes variable energy. The actual energy delivered will vary with the patient’s impedance and the device will deliver a shock when impedance is between 25-180 Ohms. Energy will be delivered at three different levels referred to as ultra-low variable energy, low variable energy, and high variable energy as shown in the above waveform tables.
