15 Confirm the defibrillator returns to asynchronous mode (sense markers are no longer
displayed and sync LED is off).
16 Confirm that the printer annotates the time, date, sync
ON
, sync sense markers prior to
energy delivered, energy selected, no sense markers after
SHOCK
1, and sync
OFF
on the
ECG strip.
17 Connect defibrillator to AC power and power off.
Note:
The defibrillator may be configured to remain in synchronous mode after discharge.
Therapy Cable Pacing Check
Equipment needed:
• LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor
• QUIK-COMBO therapy cable
• Patient ECG cable
• QUIK-COMBO 3- or 12-lead patient simulator
• Fully charged batteries
Procedure:
1 Press
ON
.
2 Connect the QUIK-COMBO therapy cable to the QUIK-COMBO simulator.

delivered pacing pulse.
11 Disconnect the QUIK-COMBO therapy cable from the simulator. Confirm that the pacemaker
stops pacing, the
CONNECT ELECTRODES
message appears, and an audible alarm sounds.
12 Reconnect the QUIK-COMBO therapy cable to the simulator. Confirm that the audible alarm
ceases, the
PACING STOPPED
message displays, and that the current is 0 mA.
13 Increase current to 80 mA.
14 Press
