Prepare Patient
Remove all clothing covering the patient’s chest. Dry chest if necessary. If the patient has
excessive chest hair, clip or shave it to ensure proper adhesion of the electrodes.
Attach hands-free therapy electrodes according to instructions on the electrode packaging.
Ensure that the electrodes are making good contact with the patient’s skin and are not covering
any part of the ECG electrodes.
Connect the hands-free therapy electrodes to the multi-function cable (MFC or OneStep) if not
already connected.
The message
ATTACH PADS
or
CHECK PADS
will be displayed and energy will not be
delivered if the therapy electrodes are not making good contact with the patient. The message
SHORT DETECTED
is displayed if a short circuit exists between the therapy electrodes.
Note:
Since analysis is only done using Pads as a lead, even if an ECG cable is connected and
Lead II is available, the unit still displays a
CHECK PADS
message.
Therapy Electrode Application
WARNING! Poor adherence and/or air under the therapy electrodes can lead to the possibility of
arcing and skin burns.
1. Apply one edge of the pad securely to the patient.
2.
Roll the pad smoothly from the applied edge to the other, being careful not to trap any air
pockets between the gel and skin.
Note:
If it is not possible to place the “BACK” pad on the patient’s back, the pads should be
placed in the standard apex-sternum positions. Effective defibrillation will result, but
pacing will usually be less effective.
