Figure 3-4 Cutting Patient Clothing And Positioning Of Autopulse - ZOLL AutoPulse 100 User Manual

User Guide
4. After assessing the patient's condition, sit the patient up and make a single cut down the back of the
patient's clothing (see Figure 3-4), or undo any ties on the back of the gown in a hospital. The
posterior defibrillation/pacing pad may be placed on the patient's back at this time if the local
protocol calls for anterior-posterior placement. Use of standard pads in both the a-p or anterior-
anterior/apex-sternum placement is acceptable and will not affect the operation of the Platform or
defibrillator.
5. Slide the Platform into position behind the sitting patient and lay the patient down onto the Platform.
Placing the Platform to the patient's side and "log rolling" him or her onto the Platform is an
acceptable alternative.
