After defibrillation, the analysis starts again. If the algorithm again detects
VF or VT, it enables the defibrillator again. This process is repeated three times in all,
after which there is a one-minute interval for the cardiopulmonary resuscitation
(CPR).
The time required to prepare for defibrillation depends on the available capacity of
the battery / accumulator. The charging time can be a little more in case of a partly
discharged power module.
If there is an error during charging, there is a continuous warning tone.
In case of the message "Charge accumulator", there is still a five-minute energy
–
discharge with maximum energy. The power module should be replaced if this
message appears.
– If an ECG is not recorded or no button is pressed for ten minutes after the device
has been switched on, it switches off automatically. There is a continuous warn-
ing tone for about 30 seconds before it switches off. Any random operation stops
the automatic switch-off.
– When the electrodes are not connected, the model with the monitor shows a
straight line with the instruction 'Check electrodes' in its initial state. As soon as
there is a lead through the electrodes, the ECG signal is displayed on the monitor.
Defibrillation Not Required
If the device does not detect a rhythm requiring defibrillation, it recommends cardio-
pulmonary resuscitation.
< One minute cardiopulmonary resuscitation >
After the CPR sequence has finished the HeartSave will start the ECG analysis auto-
matically again.
Keeping The Defibrillator Ready For Use
Clean the device after a resuscitation, replace the SavePads and check and / or
change the power supply unit if required, so that PRIMEDIC™ HeartSave can be
used as fast as possible on the next use. Charge the AkuPak for sufficient power
on the next use.
Contact the nearest service station in case of any faults or irregularities as soon as
possible.
