LIFEPAK 20e Defibrillator/Monitor Operating Instructions
ABOUT AUTOMATED EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATION
The following considerations and guidelines apply when using the LIFEPAK
®
20e defibrillator/
monitor as an automated external defibrillator (AED).
Operator Considerations
The LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor, when in AED mode, is a semiautomatic defibrillator that
uses a patented Shock Advisory System™. This software algorithm analyzes the patient’s
electrocardiographic (ECG) rhythm and indicates whether or not it detects a shockable rhythm.
The LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor in AED mode requires operator interaction to defibrillate
the patient.
The LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor in AED mode is intended for use by personnel who are
authorized by a physician/medical director and have, at a minimum, the following skills and
training:
• CPR training.
• AED training equivalent to that recommended by the American Heart Association.
• Training in the use of the LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor in AED mode.
For information about training options, contact your local Physio-Control representative.
Indications
The AED mode is to be used only on patients in cardiopulmonary arrest. The patient must be
unconscious, pulseless, and not breathing normally before using the defibrillator to analyze the
patient’s ECG rhythm.
In AED mode, the LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor is not intended for use on pediatric patients
less than 8 years old.
Contraindications
None known.
