DefiMonitor XD
Do not place the defibrillation electrodes directly over an implanted pacemaker. This
will cause the device to interpret incorrectly and damage the pacemaker due to the
defibrillation pulses.
Do not touch the patient during the ECG analysis and avoid any vibrations!
If the ECG analysis is conducted in a vehicle, then for a correct analysis, the vehicle
must be stopped and the engine must be switched off.
Stop resuscitation while PRIMEDIC™ DefiMonitor is carrying out the ECG analysis.
Do not touch the patient during defibrillation! Avoid any contact between
– any parts of the patient's body (such as the bare skin of the head or the
legs), as well as
– conductive fluids (such as gels, blood or salt solution) and
– metallic objects in the patient's surroundings (such as the bed frame or
the stretcher) that represent an unintentional path for the defibrillation
current!

Safety Instructions For A Third Person

Before defibrillation, give a clear warning to any persons standing around to move
away from the patient and not touch him!
