3 Deliver Shock

Warning!

Warn all persons in attendance of the patient to STAND CLEAR prior to defibrillator
discharge.

Verify that no one is in contact with the patient, monitoring cable or leads, bed rails, or
any other potential current pathways.

Verify that the ECG waveform is stable and that sync markers appear over each R-wave.

Press and hold the illuminated SHOCK button on the front panel, (or simultaneously press and
hold both paddle SHOCK buttons) until energy is delivered to the patient. The defibrillator will
discharge with the next detected R wave.

The delivered energy level is displayed at the bottom of the screen and the shock number (1)
displays at the top of the screen.

Note:

If at any time you want to cancel the defibrillation, press the Disarm quick access key.

If the defibrillator is not discharged within 60 seconds after reaching the selected
energy level, the unit automatically disarms itself.

If additional countershocks are needed (and the

setting is disabled),

press the Sync quick access key again and follow steps 1 through 3 of this procedure starting on
page 15-13, to readjust the energy settings, charge the unit, and deliver shock.

You can configure the

Sync after Cardioversion

setting through the Setup>Supervisor>Defib/

Pacer>Default Settings menu.
