Caution
To avoid possible damage to the Analyzer, do not
discharge defibrillator pulses into the instrument.
The dual-channel pacemaker input jacks are electrically protected to prevent
damage if a defibrillator charge is applied. The instrument’s internal buzzer
activates to warn the user whenever a defibrillator pulse is sensed.
For transcutaneous pacemakers, both brand- and model-specific algorithms
and testload ranges can be selected for particular device manufacturers.
Applications
The Analyzer can be used to test external pacemakers in the Coronary Care
Unit (CCU) or Emergency Department (ED), to verify external pacemaker
performance following factory repair / upgrade, or troubleshooting pacemaker
operational problems.
The Analyzer is also a valuable clinical training and demonstration tool. In
addition to measuring the pacemaker’s basic output, amplitude sensitivity, and
refractory capabilities, you can also present the interactive pacemaker
operation using the standard ECG output with your bedside monitor, strip chart
recorder or oscilloscope. The Analyzer realistically mimics a patient’s cardiac
response to the attached pacemaker including threshold / capture, basic
asynchronous operation, and the four states of dual-channel transvenous
pacemaker operation.
Testing is made easier with the Analyzer because you no longer need to switch
test leads to conduct your desired atrial or ventricular channel test. All test
functions, with the required ECG waveforms, are instantly available to the user
via internal relay routing.
Features

•
Large 21-character x 8-line alphanumeric LCD readout shows more
information than other external pacemaker Analyzers.
•
Full range of selectable measurement algorithms and test loads for
external pacemakers.
