Defibrillator Precautions
Inappropriate defibrillation of a patient (for example, with no malignant arrhythmia) can
precipitate ventricular fibrillation, asystole, or other dangerous types of arrhythmia.
Without proper application of electrode pads, defibrillation might be ineffective and cause
burns, particularly when repeated shocks are necessary. Erythema or hyperemia of the skin
under the defibrillation pads often occurs. This reddening effect, often enhanced along the
perimeter of the pad, should diminish substantially within 72 hours.
Defibrillator output energy
The AED Pro unit can deliver as much as 200 joules into a 50 ohm impedance. The energy
delivered through the chest wall, however, is determined by the patient’s transthoracic
impedance.
