STEP 5
PREPARE THE PATIENT FOR
TREATMENT WITH THE CellAED®
The CellAED® has been designed for use on people
who are unconscious, unresponsive, and who
have ceased breathing or have abnormal (agonal)
breathing associated with SCA.
DANGER:
Do not store or use the CellAED® near
flammable gases (such as in an oxygen-enriched
atmosphere) or in direct contact with flammable
material. Store in a dry location away from any heat
sources (including direct sunlight). Turn off local gas
sources or move source away from patient during
defibrillation.
WARNING:
The CellAED® should not be used if
the patient is conscious, responsive, or breathing
normally. No shockable rhythm will be detected
and the CellAED® will not provide shocks. Call
Emergency Services if symptoms of concern are
present.
If you are unsure whether a sudden cardiac arrest is
occurring, use the CellAED®.
If the patient remains unconscious, unresponsive, or
not breathing normally after 60 seconds, obtain the
CellAED® and prepare the patient for treatment.
- Remove clothing and jewellery and expose the
patient’s chest
(Figure 8, page 36)
.
- Shave any excessive hair in the areas where you
will place the pads.
- If the chest is dirty or moist, wipe the chest with
a towel to make the skin dry and clean for good
pad contact.
- Remove any medicine patches on the patient’s
chest.
- Remove any electronic devices or equipment
attached to the patient that do not feature the
‘defibrillation-proof’ mark.
WARNING:
Certain materials making contact
with the electrode pads during defibrillation can
cause electrical sparks, skin burns, and divert
electricity away from the heart. Do not allow the
electrode pads to touch each other or any metal
parts or objects (such as a bed frame or stretcher);
medication patches; dressings; or any other material
on the patient’s chest or in contact with the patient.
-
Continue to provide chest compression CPR.
-
If possible, call for assistance as you prepare
the CellAED® for use.
