Z-BAR™ INDICATOR
The Z-Bar provides a relative visual graphical indicator of the total transthoracic impedance between the two defibrillation
pads. The Z-Bar is used in the assessment of:
• Adequate Pad placement
• Pad quality and integrity
• Pad adhesion to the patient’s skin
• Proper Pad connection to the AED Pro
• Provides for quick assessment between PADS OFF and PADS SHORTED
Note:
The Z-Bar is displayed on all therapy screens with the exception of the ECG MONITORING screen. On
the ECG MONITORING screen the Z-Bar will be displayed only if the detection lead is set to Pads.
The Z-Bar is divided into 5 sections. The ideal operating range is Section 3 (impedance range from 30 to <150).
