When internal paddles are used for defibrillation, the energy selection is automatically limited to 50 joules
because of possible cardiac damage from higher energies.

Sterilize the internal paddles before each use. Otherwise, severe infection may result.
z
Clean the internal paddles after each use.
8.5 Synchronized Cardioversion
Synchronized Cardioversion allows you to synchronize delivery of the defibrillator shock with the R-wave of the ECG. You
may choose to perform synchronized cardioversion through either:
„
Multifunction electrode pads, or
„
External paddles
To use synchronized cardioversion, press the [ Enter Sync ] soft key in the asynchronous defibrillation mode. Then “Sync”
appears in the manual Defibrillation information area and a marker appears above each R-wave, see the figure below:
You can monitor ECG through multifunction electric pads, or external paddles, or electrodes connected to a 3- or 5-lead
ECG cable. Shock is delivered through either pads or paddles.For synchronized cardioversion, we recommend to acquire
patient’s ECG through ECG lead set
NOTE
z
When you enter synchronous cardioversion, monitoring alarms is reactivated autonomously.
