Contraindications; How To Use This Manual - ZOLL M2 Operator's Manual

Chapter 1 General Information
When operating in manual defibrillation mode, the device operates as a conventional
defibrillator where the device's charging and discharging is fully controlled by the operator. In
AED mode, some features of the device are automated and a sophisticated detection algorithm
is used to identify ventricular fibrillation and wide-complex ventricular tachycardia, and to
determine the appropriateness of defibrillator shock delivery. Units may be configured to
automatically analyze the patient's ECG rhythm, charge the defibrillator, and prompt the
operator to "PRESS SHOCK", depending on local protocols. The unit is switched from AED
mode to Manual mode for ACLS use by pressing the appropriate key on the front panel.
The ZOLL M2 unit assists caregivers during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by
evaluating the rate and depth of chest compressions and providing feedback to the rescuer.
The unit has a large colorful LCD display of numerics and waveform data that provides easy
visibility from across the room and at any angle. ECG and SpO2 plethysmographic waveform
traces can be displayed simultaneously, giving easy access to all patient monitoring data at
once.The ZOLL M2 includes a transcutaneous pacemaker consisting of a pulse generator and
ECG sensing circuitry. Pacing supports both demand and fixed rate noninvasive pacing for
adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients.
The ZOLL M2 has a patient data review and collection system that allows for printing, storing
and transferring patient data. The ZOLL M2 unit contains a printer and USB port, which can be
used to print data and transfer it to a PC.
The ZOLL M2 unit can send full disclosure logs to a remote server through an optional wireless
connection. In addition, ZOLL M2 recorded full disclosure cases can be reviewed and printed
using ZOLL RescueNet
