*To reduce the length of the CODE SUMMARY report, storing waveform data with these events can be set to OFF (see
the LIFEPAK 15 Monitor/Defibrillator Setup Options provided with your device).
Waveform events are preceded by a header that includes the following information:
*Patient impedance (in ohms) appears on shock reports when using disposable defibrillation electrodes. This impedance
is measured just prior to the shock and is used to determine voltage compensation.
Figure 7-3 shows four examples of waveform events as they would appear in the CODE
SUMMARY report.
SHOCK X 3 seconds prior to shock and 5 seconds after shock
PACING X STARTED 8 seconds prior to increase of current from 0
PACING X SET 8 seconds after ppm and mA are stable for 10 seconds
PACING X CHANGED 8 seconds after pacing rate, current, or mode is changed
PACING X STOPPED 3 seconds prior to pacing current is zero and 5 seconds after
PACING X PAUSED Initial 8 seconds while PAUSE is pressed
ALARM* 3 seconds prior to violated parameter and 5 seconds after
EVENT* 3 seconds prior to event selection and 5 seconds after
PRINT 3 seconds prior to pressing PRINT and 5 seconds after
12-LEAD 10 seconds after 12-LEAD is pressed
SNAPSHOT 3 seconds prior to and 5 seconds after SNAPSHOT requested
VITAL SIGNS 3 seconds prior to and 5 seconds after vital signs are acquired
• Patient data • Vital signs
• Event name • Device configuration information
