Defi-Monitor ECO 1 / DM 1 / DM 3

19499 / 05.03
Together with the in Capter 6.2 (Selection of correct SpO
2
sensor) adviced sensors, a continuous monitoring of adult or
paediatric patients is possible. Parallel to the measurement in
% a continuous pulse curve is displayed in the monitor. This
can be documented by the use of the high resolution printer.
During the measurement of the oxygen saturation, alarm
thresholds can be activated to indicate changes in the
patient’s condition.
The printer can be used to document the monitoring as well
as to record the emergency situation (the 5 s before and 5 s
after every shock).
The defibrillator allows safe and extremely quick use:
•
Charging time for 100 joule
approx. 1 s (*)
•
Charging time for 360 joule
approx. 5 s (*)
(*) = when accumulator capacity is 90 % of nominal value.
A module slot is provided at the sides of models
DM 10
and
DM 30
, where e.g. a
pacer module
may be inserted,
which is particularly operator-friendly. In contrast to common
pacers the paddle does
not
have to be removed in order to
connect the pacer- / defibrillation cable. With
PRIMEDIC
™
pacers
the pacer- / defibrillation cable is simply attached to
the module.
If the pacer- / defibrillation cables are
connected, the paddle electrodes are switched-off.
If during the pacer process a defibrillation is necessary, a
shock may be released via cushion electrodes. The release
buttons of the module control the charging of energy and the
release of a shock. Also without the pacer being active free-
handed defibrillation may be carried out with the cushion
electrodes.
If the pacer is not needed and the user does not wish to apply
the energy via paddle, the
R/D module
may be used. To this
module the cushion electrodes for the free-handed
defibrillation are connected.
By means of the
I/D module
for internal defibrillation the
internal electrodes can be connected via a sterilised patient
cable. In case of working at an open thorax a wide range of
internal electrodes is available.
The power supply of the
PRIMEDIC
™
Defi-Monitor
is
provided by changeable accumulators with NiCd cells. The
applied charging electronics corresponds to the latest
technology thus assuring a maximum service life of the
accumulators used.
