CHARACTERISTIC

DESCRIPTION

All specifications are at 20°C unless otherwise stated.

GENERAL

Classification

Monitor/defibrillator—Battery powered and Class II (per EN 60601-1)

Applied parts—ECG, Invasive Pressure and Temperature are Type CF
patient connections. Therapy, CO2, SpO2, and NIBP are Type BF patient
connections (per EN 60601-1).

Modes

AED mode—for automated ECG analysis and a prompted treatment
protocol for patients in cardiac arrest.

Manual mode—for performing manual defibrillation, synchronized
cardioversion, noninvasive pacing, and ECG and vital sign monitoring.

Archive mode—for accessing stored patient information.

Setup mode—for changing default settings of the operating functions.

Service mode—for authorized personnel to perform diagnostic tests and
calibrations.

Demo mode—for simulated waveforms and trend graphs for
demonstration purposes.

Self-test

When powered on, the device performs a self-test to check internal
electrical components and circuitry. A service indicator is illuminated if
an error is detected.

The device also performs an auto test daily. Results are printed and
stored in the device log. Auto test results can be transmitted. See the

LIFEPAK 15 Monitor/Defibrillator Setup Options provided with your
device for more information.

Continuous Patient
Surveillance System
(CPSS)

In Advisory Monitoring, CPSS monitors the patient ECG, via QUIK-
COMBO

®

electrodes or Lead II, for a potentially shockable rhythm.

Voice Prompts

Manual mode: Used for selected prompts (selectable ON/OFF)
AED mode: Used for entire AED protocol
