LIFEPAK 15 Monitor/Defibrillator Operating Instructions
A-11
Rated energy output is the nominal delivered energy based on the energy
setting and patient impedance as defined in the following chart.
Paddle Options
QUIK-COMBO pacing/defibrillation/ECG electrodes (standard)
Standard paddles (optional)
Cable Length
8 foot long (2.4 m) QUIK-COMBO cable (not including electrode
assembly)
AED Mode
Shock Advisory System (SAS) is an ECG analysis system that advises the
operator if the algorithm detects a shockable or nonshockable ECG
rhythm. SAS acquires ECG via therapy electrodes only.
Biphasic Output Energy
Shock levels ranging from 150–360 joules with same or greater energy
level for each successive shock
cprMAX™ Technology
In AED mode, cprMAX technology provides a method of maximizing the
CPR time that a patient receives, with the overall goal of improving the
rate of survival of patients treated with AEDs
Setup Options:
Auto Analyze
Allows for auto analysis. Options are OFF, AFTER 1ST SHOCK
Initial CPR
Allows the user to be prompted for CPR for a period of time prior to other
activity. Options are OFF, ANALYZE FIRST, CPR FIRST
Initial CPR Time
Time interval for Initial CPR. Options are 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, and 180
seconds
