Product Description
The
RESCUE 230
is a manual external defibrillator and ECG Monitoring. It is a battery powered,
lightweight and portable device designed to deliver defibrillation shocks during rescue operations.
The user has to do the analysis of the ECG of the patient and set the energy of the shock to be
delivered. The choices are 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 150, 200 and 230 (all in Joules). The energy value
can be fine tuned from 3 to 10J in steps of 1J and from 10 to 230J in steps of 5J.
Synchronized cardioversion can also be done. During synchronized cardioversion, the defibrillating
shock is delivered within 40 milliseconds of the occurrence of a QRS peak.
The RESCUE 230 may also be used to do ECG monitoring. ECG monitoring only is done by
connecting the custom designed, 4 leads ECG monitoring cable assembly from ELPRO S.r.l.
In this case RESCUE 230 will display/print 3+3 traces ( I,II,III – aVR, aVL, aVF).
The RESCUE 230 may be equipped with disposable defibrillation pads. Through these pads, the
electrical signal from the patient’s heart is acquired. The defibrillation shock is delivered also
through the same defibrillation pads
The
The RESCUE 230 is NOT intended for pediatric use. It may be used in
children over the age of 8 years (weighing 25kg or above).
In any case, the decision to defibrillate is of the operating doctor.
Do not remove or change the internal battery pack. If it is necessary
to have it changed, contact the manufacturer or its authorized
representatives.
