ZOLL X Series Monitor Defibrillator Rev H - Manual (Page 21)

X Series Indications for Use
9650-001355-01 Rev. H X Series Operator’s Guide 1-9
Specifications for the ECG rhythm analysis function are provided in the section “ECG Analysis
Algorithm Accuracy” on page A-35.
When the patient is less than 8 years of age or weighs less that 55 lbs. (25 Kg), you must use
ZOLL pediatric defibrillation electrodes. Do not delay therapy to determine patient’s exact age
or weight.
ECG Monitoring
The X Series is intended for use to monitor and/or record 3-, 5-, or 12-lead ECG waveform and
heart rate, and to alarm when heart rate is above or below limits set by the operator. The patient
population will range from newborn (neonate) to adult, with and without heart dysfunction.
CPR Monitoring
The CPR monitoring function provides visual and audio feedback designed to encourage
rescuers to perform chest compressions at the AHA/ERC recommended rate of 100
compressions per minute. Voice and visual prompts encourage a minimum compression depth
of at least 1.5 (3.8 cm) or 2.0 inches (5.0 cm), depending on the configuration, for adult
patients. The CPR monitoring function is not intended for use on patients under 8 years of age.
External Transcutaneous Pacing
This product can be used for temporary external cardiac pacing in conscious or unconscious
patients as an alternative to endocardial stimulation.
The purposes of pacing include:
• Resuscitation from standstill or bradycardia of any etiology:
• As a standby when standstill or bradycardia might be expected:
• Suppression of tachycardia.
• Pediatric pacing.
Non-Invasive Blood Pressure Monitoring
The X Series is intended for use to make non-invasive measurements of arterial pressure and
heart rate, and to alarm if either parameter is outside of the limits set by the user. Measurements
are made using an inflatable cuff on the patient's arm or leg. The patient population will range
from newborn (neonate) to adult.
Temperature Monitoring
The X Series is intended for use to make continuous temperature measurements of rectal,
esophageal, or surface temperatures, and to alarm if the temperature is outside of the limits set
by the user. The patient population will range from newborn (neonate) to adult.
