4.
Connect the other end of the cable to the SYNC connector at the top rear
of the LIFEPAK 6s Defibrillator.
5.
With the LIFEPAK 6s turned on, press the SYNC
button on the front control panel
The SYNC button lights when activated.
6.
Check the Propaq display for synchronization
markers as shown on page 80. The markers should be
nearly simultaneous with the R-waves. Confirm that
the LIFEPAK 6s SYNC button flashes with each
R-wave.
Warning
If the R-wave synchronization markers do not appear to be nearly simultaneous with the R-waves on the
Propaq CS monitor display or are not present, do not proceed with synchronized cardioversion.
You must press the LIFEPAK 6s Defibrillator SYNC button and check for appropriate synchronization markers
on the Propaq CS monitor before each attempt at cardioversion. Protocol Systems cannot guarantee the delay from
the sync marker to the defibrillator discharge.
Note
A problem with the Interface Cable connecting the defibrillator and monitor, such as a cable fault or unplugging the
cable, will prevent display of synchronization markers and may prevent the defibrillator from entering the synchronized mode.
7.
Follow hospital procedures and LIFEPAK 6s Defibrillator instructions for cardioversion.
8.
If subsequent cardioversion must be performed, repeat steps 5 through 7.
