Monitoring cautions
Maintenance cautions
safety levels
possible burns and ineffective energy
WARNING
Do not allow the defibrillator pads to touch each other or other ECG
electrodes, lead wires, dressings, transdermal patches, etc. Such
contact can cause electrical arcing and patient skin burns during
defibrillation and may also divert the defibrillation current away from
the heart.
WARNING
During defibrillation, air pockets between the skin and defibrillator
pads can cause patient skin burns. To help prevent air pockets, make
sure defibrillator pads completely adhere to the skin. Do not use
dried out defibrillator pads.
