Cleaning and Inspecting Standard Paddles
After each use:
1.
Wipe standard paddle electrodes, handles, paddle wells, cables, and connector with mild
disinfectant or soap and water solution. Do not immerse or soak.
2.
Dry thoroughly.
3.
Examine paddle surfaces, handles, cables, and connectors for damage or signs of wear.
•
Cables that show signs of wear such as loose cable connections, exposed wires, or
cable connector corrosion must be removed from use immediately.
•
Paddles that have rough or pitted electrodes should be removed from use
immediately.
Note:
Standard paddles are not sterile or sterilizable. Do not autoclave, gas sterilize,
immerse in fluids, or clean with alcohol or solvents.
Testing Standard Paddles
Include inspecting and testing of the standard paddles as part of your defibrillator test
routine. Daily inspection and testing helps ensure that the standard paddles are in good
operating condition and are ready for use when needed. For more information about
inspection and testing, see the Operator’s Checklist in the back of this manual.
Pediatric Paddles
Pediatric paddles slide onto adult paddles. Pediatric paddles should be used for patients
weighing less than 10 kg (22 lb) or for patients whose chest size cannot accommodate the adult
hard paddles.
Figure 39
Pediatric Paddles
Use the adult paddle controls for selecting energy and charging. Each pediatric paddle
attachment has a metal spring plate with a contact on it that transfers defibrillation energy from
the adult paddle electrode to the pediatric paddle. This solid cadmium-silver contact will not
scratch the adult paddle electrode.
Note:
Inspect the spring plates and the contacts routinely to make sure that they are clean and
intact.
