Risk of injury due to paddles having an inadequate contact
pressure!
Too low a contact pressure of the paddles leads to a high
resistance against the patient and may prevent shock delivery (at
a resistance > 400 Ω). This may injure the patient.
Always press paddles on with a contact pressure of about 8 kg.
