Chapter 8 Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Operation
The ZOLL M2 unit automatically begins the analysis of the patient's ECG rhythm, displays an
ANALYZING ECG message for 5 seconds, and announces and displays a STAND CLEAR
message. If therapy electrodes have not been properly connected to the patient, an ATTACH
PADS or CHECK PADS message is displayed and analysis will be inhibited.
Note:
An ANALYZING ECG message is displayed while the patient's ECG is analyzed. Once the
analysis is completed, the unit indicates whether or not a shock is advised.
Energy Selections
Energy selections are pre-configured, and can only be changed in the Supervisor menu.
The default energy selections for adult patients:
Shock 1 - 120 joules
Shock 2 - 150 joules
Shock 3 - 200 joules
The default energy selections for pediatric patients:
Shock 1 - 50 joules
Shock 2 - 70 joules
Shock 3 - 85 joules
Note:
Note:
Shock Advised If the patient's rhythm is shockable, the unit displays and announces
SHOCK ADVISED then automatically charges the defibrillator to the preconfigured energy
setting. Once the defibrillator is ready to deliver the shock, it announces and displays the
PRESS SHOCK message. The defibrillator automatically prompts the operator to shock the
patient at the preconfigured energy level and the SHOCK button illuminates.
8-6
If the ZOLL M2 unit has been configured to perform CPR at startup, it displays a
configurable CPR message along with a voice prompt for the configured duration
before analysis begins. To start an ECG analysis during the CPR interval, press the
ANALYZE button.
Pediatric defibrillator energy levels should be pre-configured based on site-specific
protocols.
Subsequent shocks are delivered at the same energy as the third shock (Shock 3).
