240V~50/60Hz) as this may cause fire or electric shock.
WARNING: Do not place heavy objects on the power cord, as doing so may cause
fire or electric shock.
WARNING: Before conducting maintenance work, turn the power off and unplug the
power cord from the wall socket to prevent electric shock.
WARNING: When the following occur, turn the power off immediately and unplug
the power cord from the wall socket. Continued use in such situations may cause
fire or electric shock.
l There is smoke or a strange odor leaking out of the defibrillator/monitor.
l The defibrillator/monitor has been dropped or impacted by an object.
l Liquid or foreign matter gets inside the defibrillator/monitor.
8
l Defibrillator/monitor failure has occurred.
Also, when any of the above occurs, promptly do the following:
1. Check to see that the power cord has been unplugged from the wall socket.
2. Place an Out of Order sign on the defibrillator/monitor and do not use it.
3. Have the defibrillator/monitor serviced to make sure that no hazard exists.
WARNING: Do not connect more than one patient to the defibrillator/monitor. Do
not connect more than one defibrillator/monitor to a patient.
9
WARNING: A gel pathway on the skin between the standard paddles will cause
defibrillating energy to arc between paddles and delivery energy away from the
heart muscle. Do not allow conductive gel (wet or dry) to become continuous
between paddle sites.
WARNING: During defibrillation checks, the discharged energy passes through the
cable connectors. Securely attach cable connectors to the simulator.
WARNING: Do not touch the patient or any equipment connected to the patient
during defibrillation. Warn all persons around patient to DO NOT TOUCH THE
PATIENT prior to defibrillation.
WARNING: The defibrillator/monitor should be out of contact with water (puddles or
water spray). It may cause electrical shocks and device failure. Electrical safety of
the defibrillator/monitor may not work properly when wet.
WARNING: Defibrillation may cause implanted devices to malfunction. Place
standard paddles or pads away from implanted devices if possible. Check
implanted device function after defibrillation.
WARNING: Implanted pacemakers may cause the heart rate meter to count the
pacemaker rate during incidents of cardiac arrest or other arrhythmias. Pacemaker
patients should be carefully observed. Check the patients pulse; do not rely solely
on heart rate meters. Dedicated pacemaker detection circuitry may not detect all
implanted pacemaker spikes. Patient history and physical exam are important in
determining the presence of an implanted pacemaker.
WARNING: To avoid risk of electric shock, the device must only be connected to a
supply mains with protective earth.
WARNING: The use of ACCESSORY equipment not complying with the equivalent
safety requirements of this equipment may lead to a reduced level of safety of the
resulting system. Consideration relating to the choice shall include: Use of the
accessory in the PATIENT VICINITY. Evidence that the safety certification of the
ACCESSORY has been performed in accordance with the appropriate IEC (EN)
60601-1 and/or IEC (EN) 60601-1-1 harmonized national standards.
WARNING: The defibrillator/monitor is equipped with RF telemetry module which
transmits with 50dBm power in the 2.5GHz. The module has been tested and
certified to be equipped safely.
WARNING: Check leakage levels prior to use. Leakage current may be excessive if
more than one monitor or other piece of equipment is connected to the patient.
WARNING: Do not place or use the device when flammable gas presents in
atmospheres or other flammable material exist near/around. Eg. Oxygenrich area,
flammable anesthetic gases, gasoline and any flammable material or gas. Do not
use the device near the place of a gasoline or other volatile substances spill may
cause an explosion.
WARNING: Do not disassemble the defibrillator. It contains no operator serviceable
components and dangerous high voltages may be present. Contact authorized
service personnel for repair.
WARNING: Do not immerse any portion of this defibrillator in water or other fluids.
Avoid spilling any fluids on defibrillator or accessories. Spilled liquids may cause
the defibrillator and accessories to perform inaccurately or fail. Do not clean with
ketones or other flammable agents. Do not autoclave or sterilize this defibrillator or
accessories unless otherwise specified.
10
WARNING: Use care when operating this device close to oxygen sources (such as
bag-valve-mask devices or ventilator tubing). Turn off gas source or move source
away from patient during defibrillation.
WARNING: Check leakage levels prior to use. Leakage current may be excessive if
more than one monitor or other piece of equipment is connected to the patient.
WARNING: If you are monitoring a patient and using the system connector, all
equipment connected to the system connector must be battery powered or
electrically isolated from AC power according to EN 60601-1. If in doubt, disconnect
the patient from the defibrillator before using the system connector. Only use
DRE recommended data transmission cables. For more information, contact
DRE Technical Support.
WARNING: The defibrillator/monitor delivers up to 360 joules of electrical energy.
When discharging the defibrillator, do not touch the paddle electrode surfaces or
disposable paddle/pads electrodes. Do not attempt to perform this test unless you
are qualified by training and experience and are thoroughly familiar with these
operating instructions.
WARNING: Electric shock hazards exist internally. Do not remove assembly
screws. Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
WARNING: Monitors, defibrillators, and their accessories (including electrodes and
cables) contain ferromagnetic materials. As with all ferromagnetic equipment, these
products must not be used in the presence of the high magnetic field created by a
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) device. The high magnetic field created by an
MRI device will attract the equipment with a force sufficient to cause death or
serious personal injury to persons between the equipment and the MRI device. This
magnetic attraction may also damage the equipment. Skin burns will also occur
due to heating of electrically conductive materials, such as patient leads and pulse
oxmeter sensors. Consuit the MRI manufacturer for more information.
WARNING: Medical electrical equipment which does not incorporate defibrillator
protection should be disconnected during defibrillation.
WARNING: Operating the defibrillator/monitor or its accessories in conditions
outside the environmental specifications can result in device or accessory

BATTERY OPERATION
WARNING: Do not disassemble, puncture, crush, heat above 100C (212F), or
incinerate the battery. Be careful not to short the battery terminals because this
could result in a fire hazard.
WARNING: DRE has no information regarding the performance or
effectiveness of its DRE defibrillator/monitors if other manufacturers batteries
or battery chargers are used. Using other manufacturers batteries or battery
chargers may cause the defibrillator/monitor to perform improperly and invalidate
the safety agency certifications. Use only DRE s battery or battery charger.
WARNING: Grounding reliability can only be achieved when the equipment is
connected to an equivalent receptacle marked HOSPITAL ONLY or HOSPITAL
GRADE. If the grounding integrity of the line cord or AC receptacle is in doubt,
operate on battery only.
CAUTION: Recharging the battery is strongly recommended when it has not been
fully recharged for 6 or more months.
CAUTION: Do not install the battery into the defibrillator/monitor when storage may
exceed 90 days. Battery damage may occur.
CAUTION: When the voltage of the battery is very low, it is a possibility of not
operating.
CAUTION: Stored batteries lose charge. Failure to charge a stored battery before
use may cause device power failure without warning. Always charge a stored
battery before placing it in active use.
33
Note: It is recommended that keep AC power source connected to the defibrillator/monitor when
not in use. This will ensure a fully charged battery whenever it is needed.
Note: As the battery is used and recharged over a period of time, the amount of time between the
onset of the low battery alarm and the defibrillator/monitor shut-off may become shorter. It is
recommended for service personnel to check periodically or replace the battery if necessary.
Note: The defibrillator/monitor can be powered with two batteries when a battery is inserted
instead of AC power supply (SMPS). When the defibrillator/monitor is equipped with two
batteries, two battery status icons appear on the screen.
34
The defibrillator/monitor cannot operate with a completely discharged battery. Before
turning on the defibrillator/monitor with a battery that has been completely discharged,
plug the defibrillator/monitor into an AC outlet to charge the battery for a minimum of 3
minutes. The defibrillator/monitor may then be powered on.
A new, fully charged battery will provide 5 hours monitoring operation under the
following conditions:
Note: If there is the combination of battery A and B in the defibrillator/monitor, two new, fully
charged batteries will provide 10 hours monitoring operation.
White (charging)
A low priority alarm occurs when the remaining battery power is only enough for 15
minutes of operation. The Low battery message is displayed on the screen. Connect the
AC power or replace the battery with a fully charged battery immediately when alarm
occurs.
This alarm cannot be paused while running on battery power. Connecting the
defibrillator/monitor to AC power will stop the alarm.
A high priority alarm occurs for about 5 minutes before the defibrillator/monitor shuts off.
The SYSTEM : Critically low-battery condition message is displayed on the screen.

USING THE DEFIBRILLATOR/MONITOR
WARNING: Each time the defibrillator/monitor is used, check alarm limits to make
sure that they are appropriate for the patient being monitored.
WARNING: If different alarm presets are used for the same or similar equipment
in any single area, e.g. an intensive care unit or cardiac operating room, a
potential hazard can exist.
WARNING: Keep patients under close surveillance when monitoring. It is
possible, although unlikely, that radiated electromagnetic signals from sources
external to the patient and the defibrillator/monitor can cause inaccurate
measurement readings. Do not rely entirely on the defibrillator/monitor readings
for patient assessment.
WARNING: Be aware of patient cables, including ECG monitoring equipment
when used with high frequency surgical equipment.
WARNING: The ECG rhythm analysis function does not warn the operator of
patient asystole, as it is not a shockable rhythm.
37
CAUTION: The defibrillator does not automatically adjust energy when using
pediatric electrodes. Manually select the appropriate energy prior to defibrillating
the patient.
CAUTION: Only use thumbs to depress the paddle SHOCK button. Failure to do so
could result in the inadvertent depression of the energy select buttons, causing the
defibrillator to disarm itself.
CAUTION: Do not permit gel to accumulate between the paddle electrodes on the
chest wall (gel bridge). This could cause burns and reduce the amount of energy
delivered to the heart.
CAUTION: If using defibrillation pads, make sure that the size of the pad is large
enough to cover the entire paddle electrode area.
CAUTION: Look for display motion before accepting any displayed data as a
current measurement.
Note: If unusable sound like buzzer can be heard, do not use the defibrillator/monitor. Instead,
please contact qualified service personnel or your local supplier.

52
ECG MONITORING
WARNING: For best product performance and measurement accuracy, use only
accessories supplied or recommended by DRE. Use accessories according to
the manufacturers directions for use and your facilitys standards. It may cause
burns to the patients or device failure to use of pacing/defibrillation pads or
adapters from sources other than DRE.
WARNING: Line isolation defibrillator/monitor transients may resemble actual
cardiac waveforms and thus inhibit heart rate alarms. Such transients may be
minimized by proper electrode and cable placement, as specified in this manual
and electrode directions for use.
WARNING: Do not use damaged ECG leads. Do not immerse ECG leads
completely in water, solvents, or cleaning solutions. Do not sterilize ECG leads by
irradiation, steam, or ethylene oxide. Follow the manufacturers directions for use.
WARNING: Do not use ECG electrodes with expired dates. Do not use defective
ECG electrodes. These might cause improper performance.
WARNING: ECG cables may be damaged if they are connected to a patient during
defibrillation. Cables that have been connected to a patient during defibrillation
should be checked for functionality before using again.
WARNING: It is possible for the patient to receive a burn due to an improperly
connected electrosurgical unit. Additionally, the defibrillator/monitor could be
damaged or measurement errors could occur. Place the ECG cable and leads as
far as possible from the site of the electrosurgical unit and from the
electrosurgical cables. This will minimize interference and the risk of burns to the
patient.
WARNING: For pacemaker patients, the defibrillator/monitor may continue to
count pacemaker rate during occurrences of cardiac arrest or some arrhythmias.
To reduce the likelihood of this, ensure that the Pacer Detect setting is On in the
ECG waveform Menu when monitoring such patients. Do not rely entirely upon
the defibrillator/monitor alarms. Keep pacemaker patients under close
surveillance.
WARNING: To ensure patient safety, the conductive parts of the ECG electrodes
(including associated connectors) and other patient-applied parts should not
contact other conductive parts, including earth ground, at any time.
WARNING: Correct the electrode placement. Improper electrode placement may
cause incorrect result. User must be aware of proper device operation.
WARNING: Use only high quality ECG electrodes. ECG electrodes are for rhythm
acquisition only. Do not attempt to defibrillate or pace through ECG electrodes.
WARNING: Precordial lead electrodes and lead wires may interfere with the
placement of standard paddles or pads. Before defibrillation, remove any
interfering precordial lead electrodes and lead wires.
WARNING: The defibrillator/monitor may be used in conjunction with and must
not be damaged by typical electrosurgical equipment operation.
General
The process of depolarization and repolarization of the myocardium generates electric
potentials that are sensed by ECG electrodes on the skin surface. These electrodes are
typically attached to the patients right arm, left arm, and left leg. The defibrillator/monitor
processes and amplifies these signals and presents the ECG waveform on the screen.
Also, the defibrillator/monitor computes the minute heart rate at least every second by
moving average. In addition to the acquisition of the QRS complex, the circuitry performs
a number of other functions. The defibrillator/monitor can display:
53
l Heart rate in beats per minute
l Detection of a lead off condition if an electrode is disconnected or poorly connected
l Detection of the presence of pacemaker signals within the ECG waveform complex
Note: Occasionally, electromagnetic interference beyond the range guaranteed from the
manufacturers declaration may cause the defibrillator/monitor to display a "Check ECG
Leads & Electrodes" alarm. This occurrence is rare, and duration should be short. When
the interference ceases, the defibrillator/monitor removes the "Check ECG Leads &
Electrodes" alarm. Refer to the Specification section.
Setup Connections
Note: DRE recommends the use of silver/silver chloride electrodes (Ag/AgCl). When dissimilar
metals are used for different electrodes, the electrodes may be subject to large offset
potentials due to polarization, which may be severe enough to prevent obtaining an ECG
trace. Using dissimilar metals may also increase recovery time after defibrillation.
1. Select the electrodes to be used. Use only one type of electrode on the same patient to
avoid variations in electrical resistance. Prepare the electrode sites according to the
electrode manufacturers instructions. See Figure 18 and 19 for electrode placement
configurations.
54

Note: One of 5-1 to 5-6 Lead electrode placement sites for the fifth lead.
55
12-lead ECG
General
The optional 12 lead ECG function, using the GLA algorithm, is available in Monitor Mode
and allows you to Acquire, Setup, 12 lead On and Patient Info. In addition, the 12 lead
function provides computerized ECG analysis. A report with measurements and
interpretive statements from the analysis is displayed, stored and printed, as configured.
Patient age and gender are used to define normal limits for heart rate, axis deviation, time
intervals, and voltage values, for interpretation accuracy in tachycardia, bradycardia,
prolongation or shortening of PR and QT intervals, hypertrophy, early repolarization,
myocardial infarction and culprit artery detection.
In a 12-lead ECG using 10 electrodes, an electrode is placed on the right arm, left arm,
right leg and left leg. Six V/C electrodes are placed on the chest as shown in Figure 34.
The right leg electrode is the standard.
Processing
Initially, a 50Hz or 60Hz notch filter is applied to remove any AC interference, if such a
filter has not already been applied within the acquiring device. The first stage of the
analysis is to compute any missing limb leads from the minimum of two leads that need to
be provided. The ECG data is then filtered to minimize the effects of noise. The next step
in the analysis is to calculate a form of spatial velocity combining the first difference of
each lead. From this function, the approximate locations of all the QRS complexes are
derived. Allowance has to be made for pacemaker stimuli, which are ideally detected by
the front end equipment and passed to the program in the form of a list of spike locations.
Given the QRS locations, it is then possible to check the quality of the recording for noise
and baseline drift. If the drift is excessive, it is removed by using a cubic spline technique
to obtain, for each lead affected, the baseline trend, which is then subtracted from the
original data. If the noise is excessive, it is possible to remove a whole lead from the
analysis or alternatively, 5 seconds of all leads are removed either from the first or second
half of the recording.
56
QRS typing
Thereafter, the various QRS complexes are typed according to their morphology. An
iterative process is used. Effectively, the first complex in lead I is compared with the
second using first differences of each cycle. The comparison takes the form of moving
one beat over the other and when the difference is minimal, optimal alignment is present.
This alignment point is used for averaging as discussed below. If the difference between
beats is less than a threshold value, they are deemed to belong to the same class. The
procedure is repeated with the third beat being compared with the second and so on. If a
new morphology is detected, i.e. if the threshold is exceeded, a new class is established.
The procedure continues with five leads being used in the typing process.
If more than one class of beat is present, then a decision has to be made as to which
morphology will be used for the averaging procedure, i.e. the cycle to be interpreted has
to be selected. A complex logic is used for this purpose. It has to allow for a single
normally conducted beat in the midst of demand pacemaker beats for example. It also
needs to take account of the QRS durations of different beat classes, RR intervals to
exclude extrasystoles, and to a limited extent, the number of beats in each morphological
class. The net effect is to choose one class of beats, of a similar morphology, that are
regarded as being conducted in the normal sequence through the ventricles.
Averaging
All beats in the selected class are averaged so that 12 such beats, one from each lead,
are then available. The average beat can be computed in several ways. Common to this
are the alignment points detected when wave typing was undertaken. They are used as
reference points in the averaging process. The average beat can be a straight average of
all corresponding aligned points, it can be a median calculated from the same points or it
can be a weighted average the so called modal beat introduced into the program in
1977. In practice, the program forms the straight average, which is compared to individual
beats in the same class. If there is a significant difference at any point, then the median
beat is used. The modal beat is regarded as being computationally excessive, though it is
undoubtedly the best approach to use.
57
Wave Measurement
From the 12 average beats, a single combined function is formed and a provisional overall
QRS onset and termination is determined by thresholding techniques. The provisional
onset and termination are then used as starting points for a search for QRS onset and
termination within each individual lead. Basically the approach conforms to the
recommendations of the CSE working party (of which one of the Glasgow team was a
member), which were published in 1985.
Figure 20. Varying choice of baselines. Figure 21. Baseline at the level of QRS
onset as used by the Glasgow program.
In each individual lead, the QRS onset is taken as the baseline and hence Q, R, S, R'
waves are measured with respect to the QRS onset as shown in the accompanying
figures from the CSE paper (see Figures 30-33).
Isoelectric segments at the beginning of a QRS complex, i.e. a flat segment between the
provisional overall onset and the onset of an individual lead are excluded from the first
component (Q or R) of the QRS complex as recommended by the CSE group. Similar
considerations apply at the end of the QRS complex (see Figure 32). A sorting algorithm
is then applied to all 12 onsets to determine the global QRS onset as follows. The earliest
onset is excluded and the next onset that also lies within 20 ms of the next again is then
selected as the overall onset. This ensures that any true outliers are excluded. The
reverse process is used to find the overall QRS termination.
58
QRS Components
Within the QRS complex, the amplitude and duration of the various Q, R, S, R waves are
then measured. In keeping with the CSE recommendations, the minimum wave
acceptable has to have a duration >8 ms and an amplitude >20 mV. With respect to global
QRS duration, the Glasgow program measures QRS duration from the global QRS onset
to the global QRS termination. This means that an isoelectric segment within one
particular QRS complex by definition will lead to a shorter QRS duration for that lead
compared to the global QRS duration.
ST segment
The ST segment has several measurements made. Figure 19 shows the J point as used
in the diagnosis of ST elevation myocardial infarction. However, measurements are also
made at equal intervals throughout the ST segment, e.g. 1/8 ST-T, 2/8 ST-T etc.
P and T waves
A search for the P wave is made in the interval preceding the QRS complex. A P wave
may not always be found in certain arrhythmias. P onset and termination are found using
a method involving second differences but the same P onset and termination is used over
all 12 leads in view of the difficulty in detecting low amplitude P waves in many leads. P
wave amplitude is determined with respect to the same baseline as for Q, R, S
amplitudes, namely the QRS onset. This was found to be more reliable than fitting a
straight line between P onset and P termination even in cases where the P wave was
superimposed on the T wave in the case of a tachycardia.
T end is determined for each lead using a template method. The global T end is derived
in a similar fashion to the global QRS offset. The other components of the ECG waveform,
namely the ST and T wave amplitudes, are also measured with respect to QRS onset.
Thus, the ST junction and the various ST amplitude measurements, such as ST 60 and
ST 80 as well as the positive and negative components of the T wave, are all measured
with respect to the QRS onset. The reason for this is that it is the most straightforward
approach to measurement.
59
Interval Measurement
With respect to intervals, the global QT interval is measured from the global QRS onset to
the global T end. On the other hand, because the P onset is taken as being simultaneous
in all 12 leads, the global PR interval measurement is from the P onset to the global QRS
onset
Normal Limits
The above methods were used to determine the normal limits of QRS waveforms from an
adult database of over 1,500 normal, published in Comprehensive Electrocardiology,
1989 and a pediatric database derived from 1750 neonates, infants and children,
published in part in 1989 and 1998 and which will be published in much more detail in the
next edition of Comprehensive Electrocardiology. These normal limits are essentially an
integral part of the diagnostic software.
Proper skin preparation and electrode placement are the most important elements in
producing a high quality 12 lead ECG. The patient should be supine and relaxed when an
ECG is acquired. In preparation for acquiring the ECG:
1. Attach the electrodes to the patient as above figure 24. 12 lead Placement.
2. Attach the 12 lead cable lead wires to the electrodes on the patient.
3. Attach the 12 lead cable to the defibrillator/monitors front panel.
4. Turn on the manual mode of defibrillator/monitor by rotating the Mode select knob to
Manual Mode.
5. Enter patient information.
6. Check the patients pulse.
60
Calculation Feature
Figure 25 shows the parameters obtained in ECG waveform to analyze the ECG. Overall
P onset, P offset, QRS onset, QRS offset and T termination are determined from all 12
leads. Individual lead wave amplitudes are then obtained. P+, P-, Q, R, S, R, S, T+ and
T- amplitudes are measured with respect to a horizontal line through the lead QRS onset.
Durations are measured between relevant points. Areas are measured in units of millivolts
x milliseconds (mV x ms). Units of measure are not specified when an area measurement
appears in the criteria. Isoelectric components between the overall QRS onset and an
individual lead onset are not included in a Q or R duration.

HR/PR Source
You may select Auto, HR, PR to decide the source of the heart rate or pulse rate. If you
select Auto, the defibrillator/monitor automatically derives the heart rate or pulse rate from
one of the monitoring parameters in this order of priority: ECG, IBP, SpO2 or NIBP. When
HR is selected, the heart rate (HR) is measured from ECG. When PR is selected, the
pulse rate (PR) is measured from IBP, SpO2 or NIBP. The color of the HR/PR icon and
HR/PR source icon will be changed according to the current source. If the pulse rate is
derived from NIBP, the value will be displayed for only 180 minutes after the NIBP
measurement, then the value will be changed to ---. The HR/PR tone volume can be
adjusted in the Setup menu.
Pacer Detect
Pacer detect should always be Enable for patients with pacemakers (refer to the warning
in this section). When Pacer detect is Enable, the defibrillator/monitor detects and filters
pacemaker-generated signals so that they will not be calculated in determining a patients
heart rate. When monitoring patients without pacemakers, Pacer detect should be set to
Disable to avoid misdiagnosis.
Filter Select
The defibrillator/monitor can filter ECG waveform noise with different ranges of frequency
response:
0.5 Hz to 21 Hz : Expands the range to display very low frequencies down to 0.05 Hz.
0.05 Hz to 40 Hz: Choose this mode to see just the ECG waveform monitoring.
1 Hz to 21 Hz : Generally called a filter mode, it reduces ECG waveform noise.
Note: The sub-clause 50.102.8 Frequency and impulse response and sub-clause 50.102.15 Heart
rate range, accuracy and QRS detection range of IE60601-2-27 are tested only for
Monitor(0.05Hz to 40Hz) of ECG filter.

AED(Automated External Defibrillator) MODE
WARNING: The defibrillator/monitor will only administer a shock if it is needed. A
voice prompt will tell you when to press the SHOCK button to administer
defibrillation therapy.
WARNING: The defibrillator/monitor should not be used on someone who is
responsive when shaken or breathing normally.
WARNING: Do not use pads if the adhesive gel is dried or damaged. Pads that are
dried out or damaged may cause electrical arcing and patient skin burns during
defibrillation. Do not use pads that have been removed from foil package for more
than 24 hours. Do not use electrodes beyond expiration date. Check that pads
adhesive is intact and undamaged. Do not reuse disposable pads that are labeled
for single patient use.
WARNING: Do not use pediatric pads on adults or larger children. Delivery of
defibrillation energies equal to or greater than 100 joules (typically used on adults)
through these smaller pads increases the possibility of skin burns.
WARNING: Do not use paddles for AED mode. AED mode is enabled only with
pads.
WARNING: Disconnect non-defibrillation proof electronic devices or equipment
from patient before defibrillation.
WARNING: Do not administer a shock using the electrode monitoring cable.
WARNING: Do not place adult pads in the anterior-posterior position when
operating this defibrillator/monitor in AED mode. A shock or no shock advised
decision may be inappropriately advised. The shock advisory algorithm requires
the electrodes to be placed in the anterior-lateral (Lead II) position.
WARNING: The Adult pads must be used on patients over 8 years old. The
Pediatric pads must be used on patients less than 8 years old or less than 25 kg
(55lb). Do not use the defibrillator/monitor in AED mode on patient less than 1
years old.
WARNING: Be sure that the electrodes do not come in contact with other
conductive materials, especially when connecting or disconnecting the electrodes
to or from the patient.
WARNING: Heart rate alarms are temporarily paused in AED Mode. Heart rate
alarms are also paused while the defibrillator/monitor is charging for defibrillation
and delivering a shock.
The AED Mode of defibrillator/monitor is designed for the treatment of sudden cardiac
arrest (SCA). It should only be used to treat someone who may be a victim of a SCA and
is:
l unresponsive to stimulus,
l not breathing,
l exhibiting no signs of life.
If the person is unresponsive but you are unsure that they have suffered from a SCA
begin CPR. When it is appropriate to treat, apply the defibrillator/monitor and follow the
audible instructions.
67
General
Defibrillation therapy is the definitive method for termination of a variety of potentially
fatal arrhythmias. The defibrillator/monitors Automated External Defibrillation (AED)
Mode is designed to guide you through standard treatment algorithms for cardiac arrest.
The defibrillator/monitor provides therapy through the application of a brief biphasic
pulse of electricity to the cardiac muscle. This electrical energy is transferred through
disposable multifunction pads applied to the patients bare chest.
Configuration choices allow you to customize AED Mode to better meet the unique
needs of your organization or resuscitation team. This chapter describes how to use
AED Mode. It explains the prompts that guide you through the defibrillation process and
describes how prompts vary depending upon the condition of the patient and the
configuration of your device.
Sudden cardiac arrest is a condition in which the heart suddenly stops pumping
effectively due to a malfunction of the heart's electrical system. Often victims of SCA have
no prior warning signs or symptoms. SCA can also occur in people with previously
diagnosed heart conditions. Survival for an SCA victim depends on immediate cardio-
pulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The use of an external defibrillator within the first few
minutes of collapse can greatly improve the patients' chances of survival. Heart attack
and SCA are not the same, though sometimes a heart attack can lead to a SCA. If you
are experiencing symptoms of a heart attack (pain, pressure, shortness of breath,
squeezing feeling in chest or elsewhere in the body) seek emergency medical attention
immediately.
Heart Rhythm
The normal electrical rhythm by which the heart muscle contracts to create blood flow
around the body is known as Normal Sinus Rhythm (NSR). Ventricular Fibrillation (VF)
caused by chaotic electrical signals in the heart is often the cause of SCA, but a shock
can be administered to re-establish normal sinus rhythm. This treatment is called
defibrillation. The AED Mode is designed to automatically detect ventricular fibrillation
(VF) and perform defibrillation on victims of sudden cardiac arrest.
Detecting Fibrillation
The electrical rhythm by which the heart muscle contracts can be detected and used for
medical diagnosis and the resulting reading is called an Electrocardiogram (ECG). The
AED Mode is designed to analyze a patients ECG in order to detect ventricular fibrillation
(VF) in the heart. If ventricular fibrillation (VF) is detected, the defibrillator/monitor will
deliver a carefully engineered electrical shock designed to stop the chaotic electrical
activity experienced within the heart muscle during SCA. This may allow the victim's
heart to return to a normal sinus rhythm.
The ECG database for validation of rhythm recognition performance includes ventricular
fibrillation (VF) rhythms of varying amplitudes, ventricular tachycardia (VT) rhythms of
varying rates and QRS width, various sinus rhythms including supraventricular
tachycardias, atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter, sinus rhythms with PVC (premature
ventricular contraction), asystole, and pacemaker rhythms.
68
Preparing for Defibrillation
WARNING: The AED algorithm is not designed to handle erratic spiking problems
caused by a properly or improperly functioning pacemaker. In patients with
cardiac pacemakers, the defibrillator/monitor may have reduced sensitivity and
not detect all shockable rhythms
WARNING: Do not let the multifunction pads touch each other or other monitoring
electrodes, lead wires, dressings, transdermal patches, etc. Such contact can
cause electrical arcing and patient skin burns during defibrillation and may divert
defibrillation current away from the heart.
WARNING: During defibrillation, air pockets between the skin and multifunction
pads can cause patient skin burns. To help prevent air pockets, make sure
defibrillation pads completely adhere to the skin. Do not use dried-out
multifunction pads.
Note: Impedance is the resistance between the defibrillators pads or paddles that the defibrillator
must overcome to deliver an effective discharge of energy. The degree of impedance differs
from patient to patient and is affected by several factors including the presence of chest hair,
moisture, and lotions or powders on the skin.
The low-energy biphasic waveform is an impedance-compensating waveform that is
designed to be effective across a wide range of patients. However, if you receive a "Poor
Pads Contact" message, check that the patients skin has been washed and dried and that any
chest hair has been clipped. If the message persists, change the pads and/or the pads cable.

2010 AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC
The 2010 AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC are based on the most current and
comprehensive review of resuscitation literature ever published, the 2010 ILCOR
International Consensus on CPR and ECC Science with Treatment Recommendations.
Bystanders, first responders and healthcare providers all play key roles in providing CPR
for victims of cardiac arrest. In addition, advanced providers can provide excellent
periarrest and postarrest care.
Note: The software may be upgraded and changed without notice because of the update of AHA
guidance for CPR and ECC. Please contact sales/service representative for more
information.
Major changes in the 2010 AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC
l The BLS algorithm has been simplified, and Look, Listen and Feel has been removed
from the algorithm. Performance of these steps in inconsistent and time consuming.
l Encourage Hands-only (compression only) CPR for the untrained lay rescuer. Hands-
Only CPR is easier to perform by those with no training and can be more readily
guided by dispatchers over the telephone.
l Initiate chest compressions before giving rescue breaths. (Compression-Airway-
Breathing rather than Airway-Breathing-Chest compressions)
l There is an increased focus on methods to ensure that high-quality CPR is performed.
Adequate chest compressions require that compressions be provided at the
appropriate depth and rate, allowing complete recoil of the chest after each
compression and an emphasis on minimizing any pauses in compressions and
avoiding excessive ventilation.
70
CPR Guidelines 2010
Note: Look, listen and feel is removed from the CPR sequence for
assessment of breathing after opening the airway in 2010 guidelines.
But 2010 guideline recommends that the healthcare provider briefly
checks for breathing when checking responsiveness to detect signs of
Look, listen and feel
cardiac arrest.

MANUAL MODE
WARNING: Make sure that the ECG signal quality is good and that sync marks are
correctly displayed above each QRS complex prior to performing synchronized
defibrillation (cardioversion).
WARNING: Artifact introduced by paddle movement may resemble an R-wave and
trigger a defibrillation shock when performing synchronized defibrillation
(cardioversion).
WARNING: Disconnect non-defibrillation-proof electronic devices or equipment
from patient before defibrillation.
WARNING: The defibrillator/monitor has a mechanism to inhibit its output when
the impedance of human body which can be measured by paddle is out of range
between 15 and 250 ohm.
This section explains how to prepare for and perform asynchronous defibrillation and
synchronous defibrillation (cardioversion) using multifunction electrode pads, external
paddles.
General
Defibrillation therapy is the definitive method for termination of a variety of potentially fatal
arrhythmias. The defibrillator/monitor provides this therapy through the application of a
brief biphasic waveform of electricity to the cardiac muscle. This electrical energy is
transferred through attached paddles or disposable multifunction pads applied to the
patients bare chest.
In manual mode, you must assess the ECG, decide if defibrillation or cardioversion is
indicated, select the appropriate energy setting, charge the defibrillator/monitor, and
deliver the shock. The entire defibrillation process is under your control. Voice prompts
are not present. However, text messages on the display provide relevant information
throughout the process. It is important to be attentive to these messages when displayed.
Note: Defibrillation is always performed through paddles or pads. However, during defibrillation
you may choose to monitor the ECG using an alternate ECG source (3-, 5-, or 12- lead
monitoring electrodes).
Note: Defibrillating asystole can inhibit the recovery of natural pacemakers in the heart and
completely eliminate any chance of recovery. Asystole should not be routinely shocked.
Note: Successful resuscitation is dependent on many variables specific to the patients
physiological state and the circumstances surrounding the patient event. Failure to have a
successful patient outcome is not a reliable indicator of defibrillator/monitor performance.
The presence or absence or a muscular response to the transfer of energy during electrical
therapy is not a reliable indicator of energy delivery or device performance.
75
Preparing for Defibrillation
Using adult paddles
1. External paddles are placed on the device.
2. Remove the paddles from the paddle tray by pulling the paddles straight up and out
of the paddle tray.
3. Apply conductive matter to the paddle electrodes. Do not distribute conductive
matter by rubbing the paddle electrodes together.
4. Apply paddles to the patients bare chest.
Note: Defibrillation is always performed through paddles or pads. However, during defibrillation
you may choose to monitor the ECG using an alternate ECG source (3-, 5-, or 12- lead
monitoring electrodes).
Note: Defibrillating asystole can inhibit the recovery of natural pacemakers in the heart and
completely eliminate any chance of recovery. Asystole should not be routinely shocked.
76
Defibrillating (async mode)
If the device and paddles are prepared for defibrillation, perform the following steps;
1. To select the energy setting, press the Select Energy Level button and rotate the
Multi function knob to the desired energy level. Energy choices range from 1 to
200J. (To choose higher value than 200J, enter the Service Menu by using extra
passcode)
Note: If do not press Select Energy Level button, defibrillator/monitor has default energy level
setting. To change default setting, enter the Service Menu.
Note: Clinicians must select an appropriate energy level for defibrillation of pediatric patients.
2. To charge the energy, press the CHARGE button. If using external paddles, the
CHARGE buttons on the paddle or on the front panel can be used.
Note: You may increase or decrease the selected energy at any time during charging or after
charging is complete.
Note: If paddles are used, the SHOCK button on the front side does not work. Only the SHOCK
button on the paddles works.
Note: Defibrillation current can cause operator or bystander injury. Do not touch the patient, or
equipment connected to the patient, during defibrillation.
If the defibrillator/monitor and paddles are prepared for defibrillation, perform the following
steps;
1. To activate Sync mode, press the Sync soft key located lower right corner of the
screen.
2. Confirm that the Sync marker appears with each R-wave.
3. To select the energy setting, press the Select Energy Level button and rotate the
Multi function knob to the desired energy level. Energy choices range from 1 to 200J.
(To choose higher value than 200J, enter the Service Menu by using extra
passcode)
Note: Clinicians must select an appropriate energy level for defibrillation of pediatric patients.
77
4. To charge the energy, press the CHARGE button. If using external paddles, the
CHARGE button on the paddles may be used instead.
Note: You may increase or decrease the selected energy at any time during charging or after
charging is complete.
Note: It is important to continue to hold the SHOCK button (or the paddle SHOCK button) until
the shock is delivered. The defibrillator shocks with the next detected R-wave.
Note: Defibrillation current can cause operator or bystander injury. Do not touch the patient, or
equipment connected to the patient, during defibrillation.
1. Make sure the Sync function is still enabled, as indicated by the presence of the
Sync message in the upper right corner of the Wave Sector 1.
2. Repeat Steps 4-5 under Delivering a Synchronized Shock.
To turn off the Sync function of the defibrillator/monitor, Press the Sync soft key.
Note: The maximum time delay between synchronization pulse and delivery of energy is not
exceeded 60ms.

PACING MODE
WARNING: Use demand mode (sync mode) pacing whenever possible. Use async
mode pacing when motion artifact or other ECG noise makes R-wave detection
unreliable.
WARNING: Observe the patient continuously while the pacemaker is in use.
Patient response to pacing therapy (for example, capture threshold) may change
over time.
WARNING: Prolonged invasive pacing may cause patient skin irritation and burns,
especially with higher pacing current levels. Discontinue noninvasive pacing if
skin becomes burned and another method of pacing is available.
WARNING: The ECG size must be properly adjusted so that the patients own beats
are detected. If ECG size is set too high or too low, pacing pulses may not be
delivered when required. Adjust ECG size so that pacing pulse mark is placed on
the patients QRS complexes.
WARNING: If you are using the pacing function with battery power and the low
battery appears, plug the device into AC power. When the device powers back up,
pacing is no longer activated. Press Pacer to re-activate the pacing function.
WARNING: Using other manufacturers combination pads with this device could
cause a decrease in pacing efficacy or the inability to pace because of
unacceptably high impedance levels and invalidate the safety agency certifications.
Use only the pads that are specified in these operating instructions.
WARNING: Use of other ECG monitoring devices may provide misleading
information due to the presence of pace artifacts.
WARNING: Under certain conditions it may not be possible to properly
defibrillator/monitor or pace while electrosurgical apparatus is operating.
General
Pacing therapy is used to deliver pace pulses to the heart. Pace pulses are delivered
through multifunction pads that are applied to the patients bare chest.
Note: Use only approved lead sets when pacing with the defibrillator/monitor.
Note: Waveforms, ECG monitoring, measurements, and most alarms remain active and retain
their settings when you convert from manual mode or monitor mode to pacing mode.
Note: Use demand mode (sync mode) pacing whenever possible. Use async mode pacing when
motion artifact or other ECG noise makes R-wave detection unreliable or when monitoring
electrodes are not available.
The defibrillator/monitor requires a 3-, 5-, 12- lead ECG cable and monitoring electrodes
as the source of the ECG during standard pacing. Pace pulses are delivered through the
multifunction pads. However, the pads cannot be used to monitoring the ECG and deliver
pace pulses simultaneously.
91

NIBP MONITORING
WARNING: For best product performance and measurement accuracy, use only
accessories supplied or recommended by DRE. Use accessories a ccording to
the manufacturers directions for use and your facilitys standards.
WARNING: Inaccurate measurements may be caused by incorrect cuff application
or use. This can include placing the cuff too loosely on the patient, using the
incorrect cuff size, or not placing the cuff at the same level as the heart, leaky cuff
or hose or excessive patient motion.
WARNING: In some cases, rapid, prolonged cycling of an oscillometric, the cuff
has been associated with any or all of the followings: ischemia, purpura, or
neuropathy. Periodically observe the patients limb to make sure that the
circulation is not impaired for a prolonged period of time. Also make sure the cuff
is placed according to directions in this manual and the cuff directions for use.
WARNING: Do not place the cuff, the catheter or SpO2 sensor on an extremity
being used for intravenous infusion or any area where circulation is compromised
or has the potential to be compromised.
WARNING: As with all automatically inflatable blood pressure devices, continual
cuff measurements can cause injury to the patient being monitored. Weigh the
advantages of frequent measurement and/or use of CONT mode against the risk of
injury.
WARNING: Ensure the patient is quiet with minimal movement during NIBP
readings; minimize the patients shivering.
WARNING: Never place the cuff on an extremity being used for intravenous
infusion or any area where circulation is compromised or has the potential to be
compromised. Never fit NIBP system with Luer Lock adapters.
WARNING: Never use an adult monitor setting or cuff for an NIBP measurement
on a neonatal patient. Adult inflation limits can be excessive for neonatal patients,
even if a neonatal cuff is used.
WARNING: Do not pull the cable because pulling the cable could cause the
disconnection of the cable from the defibrillator/monitor and can cause the error
for the measurement.
WARNING: Noninvasive pacing may cause patient skin irritation and burns,
especially with higher pacing current levels. Inspect underlying skin of the
electrode frequently after 30 minutes of continuous pacing. Discontinue pacing if
skin burn develops and another method of pacing is available. On cessation of
pacing, immediately remove or replace electrodes with new ones.
WARNING: Do not place the cuff over a wound as this could cause further injury
when pressurized.
WARNING: Application of the cuff to any limb where intravascular access or
therapy or an arterio-venous (A-V) shunt is present could result in injury due to
the temporary interference of blood flow during pressurization.
WARNING: The application of the cuff to the arm on the same side as a
mastectomy should be avoided.
97
CAUTION: Do not apply the blood pressure cuff to the same extremity as the one
to which the SpO2 sensor is attached. Cuff inflation can disrupt SpO2 monitoring
and lead to nuisance alarms.
CAUTION: Make sure that heavy objects are not placed on the cuff hose. Avoid
crimping or undue bending, twisting, or entanglement of the hose.
CAUTION: The sensor disconnect error message and associated alarm indicate the
sensor is either disconnected or the wiring is faulty. Check the sensor connection
and, if necessary, replace the sensor.
Note: Blood pressure measurements can be affected by the position of the patient, the patients
physiological condition and other factors.
Note: Blood pressure measurements determined with the defibrillator/monitor are equivalent to
those obtained by a trained observer using the cuff/stethoscope auscultatory method, within
the limits prescribed by the American National Standard for manual, electronic, and
automated sphygmomanometers.
General
The defibrillator/monitor performs Non-Invasive Blood Pressure measurements using the
oscillometric measuring technique. A motorized pump inflates the cuff to initially blocking
the flow of blood in the extremity. Then, under defibrillator/monitor control, the pressure
in the cuff is gradually reduced, while a pressure transducer detects air pressure and
transmits a signal to the NIBP circuitry.
When the cuff pressure is still above systolic pressure, small pulses or oscillations in the
cuff pressure begin to be sensed by the transducer. As the cuff continues to deflate,
oscillation amplitude increases to a maximum and then decreases. When maximum
oscillation amplitude occurs, the cuff pressure at that time is measured as mean arterial
pressure (MAP). The systolic and diastolic pressures are calculated based on analysis of
the oscillation amplitude profile.
Theory of Operation
Overview
The oscillometric technique does not use Korotkoff sounds to determine blood pressure.
The oscillometric technique monitors the changes in cuff pressure caused by the flow of
blood through the artery. The defibrillator/monitor inflates the cuff to a pressure that
occludes the artery. Even when the artery is occluded, the pumping of the heart against
the artery can cause small pressure pulses in the cuff baseline pressure. The
defibrillator/monitor lowers cuff pressure at a controlled rate. As the cuff pressure goes
down, blood starts to flow through the artery. The increasing blood flow causes the
amplitude of the pressure pulses in the cuff to increase. These pressure pulses continue
to increase in amplitude with decreasing cuff pressure until they reach a maximum
amplitude at which point they begin to decrease with decreasing cuff pressure. The cuff
pressure at which the pulse amplitude is the greatest is known as Mean Arterial
Pressure (MAP). The manner in which the pulse amplitudes vary is often referred to as
the pulse envelope. The envelope is an imaginary line that connects the peak of each
pressure pulse and forms an outline. The shape of the envelope is observed by the
defibrillator/monitor using a variety of techniques to determine the diastolic and systolic
blood pressure.

On clinical trial perspective, overall system accuracy is not easy to be determined. The
clinical trial test protocols have been tried and have been described in many treatises,
and international standards. So, there are many methods to determine the overall
system accuracy of Automated Sphygmomanometer using the oscillometric method. But,
there are no absolute test protocols to determine the overall system accuracy of the
Automated Sphygmomanometer using oscillometric method. Normally, the Gold
standards of Blood pressure for the reference are the intra-arterial pressure and the
auscultatory method.
The popular standard for the overall system accuracy is AAMI, SP-10 2002+A1;2003
(Electronic or automated sphygmomanometers).
The main test conditions are as follow:
A. Data comparing the Intra-arterial or the auscultatory by the clinical experts with the
automated sphygmomanometer.
B. For data collection and the data analysis, Bland-Altman Plot is used.
C. On the systolic, diastolic, and MAP, the Deltas of all measurements shall be met
under +/- 5mmHg of mean difference (MD), and +/- 8mmHg of standard deviation
(SD).
(Delta = Intra-arterial or Auscultatory Automated sphygmomanometer)
99
Oscillometric Method
The blood pressure values are determined by measuring the small oscillations (changes)
in the cuff pressure caused by the hearts contractions as the pressure in the cuff is
released. DREs measurement technology utilizes a unique deflation technique,
Dynamic Linear Deflation. This cuff deflation technique allows the DRE monitor to
measure each small change in the cuff pressure oscillations that directly correspond to
the measurements systolic, mean and diastolic blood pressure values.
The cuff is first increased in pressure until it reaches a pressure above arterial occlusion.
As the cuff starts to deflate, the pulse rate of the patient is determined and the deflation
speed of the cuff is modified to create a patient specific deflation speed. As the pressure
decreases, small cuff pressure oscillations are recorded that correspond to the applied
pressure of the blood under the cuff as the heart contracts. These oscillations increase
in strength as the cuff pressure
approaches the systolic blood
pressure value. A sudden increase
in oscillation amplitude indicates
that the patients systolic blood
pressure is now able to push blood
completely through beneath the cuff.
The oscillation amplitude continues
to increase as the pressure in the
cuff is decreases until the mean
blood pressure value is reached.
The oscillation strength then starts
to diminish and finally drop off as
the diastolic blood pressure value is
reached.
The oscillometric method does not determine an instantaneous blood pressure reading
like the auscultatory method employing a microphone-type auto blood pressure
defibrillator/monitor but, as described above, determines blood pressure from an
uninterrupted changing curve, which means that the oscillometric method is not easily
effected by external noise and electrosurgical instruments.
100
Setup Connections
1. Measure the patients limb and select a proper size cuff. As a general rule, cuff width
should span approximately two-thirds of the distance between the patients elbow and
shoulder.
2. Connect the cuff hose to the connector on the defibrillator/monitors side option case
and turn to right to lock (see Figure 2).
3. Connect a cuff to the cuff hose and turn the connector
to right to lock the hoses together. Firm connection
must be made.
4. Patient should be seated with back comfortably and arms supported.
5. Patient should have their legs uncrossed, feet flat on the floor with their back and arms
supported.
6. Wrap the cuff around a hare arm or around an arm covered in thin clothing. Thick
clothing or a rolled up sleeve will cause a major discrepancy in the blood pressure
reading.
7. Wrap the cuff around the patients arm so that the
center of the cuffs rubber bladder sits on the artery of
the upper arm. The hose should be brought out from
the peripheral side without bending (The Brachial
artery is located on the inside of the patients upper
arm.) At this time, check that the index line on the
edge of the cuff sits inside the range. Use a different
sized cuff if the index line is outside of the range
because this will cause a major discrepancy in blood
pressure reading.
CAUTION: The adult cuff should be wrapped around the arm tightly enough so that
only two fingers can be inserted under it, above and below the cuff.
CAUTION: Refrain from talking during the measurement procedure, and at least 5
minutes should elapse before the first reading is taken.
8. Maintain the height of the cuff-wrapped upper arm artery to that of the hearts right
ventricle during measurement.
9. Follow the cuff directions for use when applying the cuff to the arm.
Note: Obtaining NIBP readings can be more difficult in patients with arrhythmias. These
arrhythmias increase the beat-to-beat pressure fluctuations, which increases the variability
of the NIBP readings. Temporarily verify pressure using another method if it becomes
difficult to obtain readings in the presence of arrhythmias.

SpO2 MONITORING
WARNING: For best product performance and measurement accuracy, use only
accessories manufactured by Nellcor or supplied by DRE. Use accessories
according to the manufacturers directions for use and your facilitys standards.
WARNING: Tissue damage can be caused by incorrect application or use of an
SpO2 sensor. Harm can be caused, for example, by wrapping the sensor too tightly,
by applying supplemental tape, or by leaving a sensor on too long in one place.
Inspect the sensor site as directed in the sensor directions for use to ensure skin
integrity, correct positioning, and adhesion of the sensor.
WARNING: Do not use damaged SpO2 sensors. Do not use an SpO2 sensor with
exposed optical components. Do not immerse sensor completely in water, solvents,
or cleaning solutions because the sensor and connectors are not waterproof. Do
not sterilize SpO2 sensors by irradiation, steam or ethylene oxide. Refer to the
cleaning instructions in the directions for use for reusable SpO2 sensors.
WARNING: Inaccurate measurements may be caused by:
incorrect sensor application or use
significant levels of dysfunctional hemoglobin (such as carboxyhemoglobin or
methemoglobin)
intravascular dyes such as indocyanine green or methylene blue
exposure to excessive illumination, such as surgical lamps (especially ones
with a xenon light source), bilirubin lamps, fluorescent lights, infrared heating
lamps, or direct sunlight
excessive patient movement
high-frequency electrosurgical interference and defibrillators
venous pulsations
placement of a sensor on an extremity with a blood pressure cuff, arterial
catheter, or intravascular line
patient conditions such as hypotension, severe vasoconstriction, severe
anemia, hypothermia, cardiac arrest, or shock
arterial occlusion proximal to the sensor
environmental conditions
unspecified length of the extension cable
WARNING: Do not attach any cable to the sensor port connector that is intended for
computer use.
WARNING: Do not pull the cable because pulling the cable could cause the
disconnection of the cable from the defibrillator/monitor and can cause the error for
the measurement.
WARNING: Do not use a damaged sensor or cable. Do not alter the sensor or cable
in any way. Alternations or modification may affect performance and/or accuracy.
Never use more than one cable between the pulse oximeter and the sensor to
extend the length.
WARNING: Sensors exposed to ambient light when incorrectly applied to a patient
may exhibit inaccurate saturation readings. Securely place the sensor on the
patient and check the sensors application frequently to help ensure accurate
readings.
WARNING: Do not rely solely on SpO2 reading: assess the patient at all times. SpO2
readings may be inaccurate in the presence of significant levels of
carboxyhemoglobin or methemoglobin, in patients with restricted blood flow to the
extremities (such as those in severe shock or hypothermia), or in the presence of
excessive motion.
WARNING: Failure to apply the sensor properly may reduce the accuracy of the
SpO2 measurement.
105
WARNING: Inspection the sensor application site at least every two hours for
changes in skin quality, correct optical alignment, and proper sensor application. If
skin quality is compromised, change the sensor site. Change the application site at
least every four hours. More frequent checking may be required due to individual
patients condition.
WARNING: Severe anemia, methemoglobin, intravascular dyes that change usual
blood pigmentation, excessive patient movement, venous pulsations,
electrosurgical interference, exposure to irradiation and placement of the sensor on
an extremity that has a blood pressure cuff, intravascular line, or externally applied
coloring(such as nail polish) may interfere with oximeter performance. The operator
should be thoroughly familiar with the operation of the oximeter of the oximeter
prior to use.
WARNING: The pulsations from intra-arotic ballon support can be additive to the
pulse rate on the oximeter pulse rate display. Verify patients pulse rate against the
ECG heart rate.
WARNING: Prolonged, continuous use of a sensor may cause irritation, blistering,
or pressure necrosis of the skin. Check the sensor site regularly based on patient
condition and type of sensor. Change the sensor site if skin changes occur. Do not
use tape to hold the sensor in place as this may cause inaccurate readings or
damage to the sensor or skin.
WARNING: Carefully route patient cabling to reduce the possibility of patient
entanglement or strangulation.
WARNING: Carboxyhemoglobin and methemoglobin may erroneously increase
SpO2 readings. The amount that SpO2 increases is approximately equal to the
amount of carboxyhemoglobin or methemoglobin that is present.
CAUTION: The sensor disconnect error message and associated alarm indicate the
sensor is either disconnected or the wiring is faulty. Check the sensor connection
and, if necessary, replace the sensor, extension cable or both.
CAUTION: Reusable sensors may be used on the same site for a maximum of 4
hours, provided the site is inspected routinely to ensure skin integrity and correct
positioning.
General
The defibrillator/monitor uses pulse oximetry to measure functional oxygen saturation in
the blood. Because a measurement of SpO2 is dependent upon light from the SpO2
sensor, excessive ambient light can interfere with this measurement. SpO2 and Pulse rate
are updated every second. This defibrillator/monitor measures functional saturation -
oxygenated hemoglobin expressed as a percentage of the hemoglobin that can transport
oxygen. It does not detect significant amounts of dysfunctional hemoglobin, such as
carboxyhemoglobin or methemoglobin.
Theory of Operation
The defibrillator/monitor uses pulse oximetry to measure functional oxygen saturation in
the blood. Pulse oximetry works by applying a Nellcor pulse oximetry sensor to a
pulsating arteriolar vascular bed, such as a finger or toe. The sensor contains a dual light
source and a photodetector. Bone, tissue, pigmentation, and venous vessels normally
absorb a constant amount of light over time. The arteriolar bed normally pulsates and
absorbs variable amounts of light during the pulsations. The ratio of light absorbed is
translated into a measurement of functional oxygen saturation (SpO2). Ambient conditions,
sensor application, and patient conditions can influence the ability of the pulse oximeter to
accurately measure SpO2. Pulse oximetry is based on two principles: oxyhemoglobin and
deoxyhemoglobin differ in their absorption of red and infrared light (measured using
106
spectrophotometry), and the volume of arterial blood in tissue (and hence, light absorption
by that blood) changes during the pulse (registered using plethysmography). A
defibrillator/monitor determines SpO2 by passing red and infrared light into an arteriolar
bed and measuring changes in light absorption during the pulsatile cycle. Red and
infrared low-voltage light-emitting diodes (LED) in the sensor serve as light sources; a
photo diode serves as the photo detector. Since oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin
differ in light absorption, the amount of red and infrared light absorbed by blood is related
to hemoglobin oxygen saturation. The defibrillator/monitor uses the pulsatile nature of
arterial flow to identify the oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin. During systole, a new
pulse of arterial blood enters the vascular bed, and blood volume and light absorption
increase. During diastole, blood volume and light absorption reach their lowest point. The
defibrillator/monitor bases its SpO2 measurements on the difference between maximum
and minimum absorption (measurements at systole and diastole). By doing so, it focuses
on light absorption by pulsatile arterial blood, eliminating the effects of nonpulsatile
absorbers such as tissue, bone, and venous blood.
107
Setup Connections
When selecting a sensor, consider the patients weight and activity, adequacy of perfusion,
availability of sensor sites, need for sterility, and anticipated duration of monitoring. Refer
to Table 30, or contact Nellcor or DRE sales department for ordering information.
Note: Refer to directions for use to ensure the proper placement for various types of SpO2 sensors.
Note: Periodically check to see that the sensor remains properly positioned on the patient and that
skin integrity is acceptable. Refer to the sensor directions for use.

RESPIRATION MONITORING
WARNING: For best product performance and measurement accuracy, use only
accessories supplied or recommended by DRE. Use accessories according to
the manufacturers directions for use and your facilitys standards.
WARNINGS: The defibrillator/monitor does not detect apnea when the respiration
signal is measured by trans-thoracic impedance.
WARNING: Keep patients under close surveillance when monitoring respiration.
Respiration signals are relatively more sensitive to interference from radiated
electromagnetic signals. Thus, it is possible, although unlikely, that radiated
electromagnetic signals from sources external to the patient and
defibrillator/monitor can cause inaccurate respiration readings. Do not rely
entirely on the defibrillator/monitor respiration readings for patient assessment. If
measured waveforms are not appropriate readings, check external conditions to
ensure there is no equipment causing electromagnetic interference.
General
The patients respiration is detected by using two of the three leads of the ECG electrodes
and cable. Real-time respiratory information is presented as a waveform and numeric
data; Impedance respiration source (IM).
The airway respiration measurement uses gases coming into the airway adapter in case
of the CO2 equipped. The defibrillator/monitor detects respiration rate by computing each
breath cycle form the continuous EtCO2 waveform; Airway respiration source (AW).
The respiration monitoring is designed to use the variation of this thoracic impedance. The
chest contains various materials, ranging from bone to air. Each of these materials has
different electrical properties and is located in a different portion of the chest. The
materials of the chest vary in electrical resistivity (the amount of electrical resistance
between opposite faces of a cube of that material), which is an important determinant of
electrical impedance in the body.
111
Theory of Operation
The respiration monitoring is designed to use the variation of this thoracic impedance. The
chest contains various materials, ranging from bone to air. Each of these materials has
different electrical properties and is located in a different portion of the chest. The
materials of the chest vary in electrical resistivity (the amount of electrical resistance
between opposite faces of a cube of that material), which is an important determinant of
electrical impedance in the body.
Two of the major components of the chest, blood and air, are at opposite ends of the
scale. Furthermore, the volume of each of these materials varies with time over the
cardiac and breathing cycles. The variation of the thoracic impedance is caused by the
difference between air and blood in the thoracic impedance. Blood has relatively low
resistivity, which varies over the cardiac cycle owing to changing blood volumes in the
heart and in the vascular compartment. Air, on the other hand, has high electrical
resistivity and hence impedance, and it undergoes wide volume changes in the lungs
during normal breathing. i.e. the impedance of blood is 150 ohm/cm and the one of air is
5=000 ohm/cm.
The patients respiration is detected by using two of the three leads of the ECG electrodes
(RA and LA, or RA and LL) and cable. The electrical impedance between a pair of
electrodes is determined by dividing the voltage difference between the two electrodes by
the current that passes between them. When the electrodes are placed on the actual
structure, respective structures change.
A low-level excitation signal is applied to these leads, and the variation of the thoracic
impedance caused by the breathing is sensed and processed for display and
measurement. This variation is processed to the voltage value for the measurement.
In order to transfer the thoracic impedance by a transformer, it is used a minimum
constant current of the sine wave carrier signal. The transferred thoracic impedance is
changed to the voltage signal by using bridge circuit and differential amplifier. Then, ECG
signal is removed by filter, and carrier frequency is removed by full wave rectifier and filter
in order to extract only thoracic impedance in amplifying at the definite level of signal. This
extracted thoracic impedance signal is used to measure the respiration by digital signal
processing.
Setup Connections
Refer to the ECG Monitoring section for how to acquire the respiration signal by patient
impedance using the ECG electrodes, leads and cable.
The performance of impedance respiration can be improved by the particular placement
of the Left arm (LA) and Right arm (RA) electrodes. (See Standard ECG electrode
placement in Figure 14.)
Refer to the Capnography Monitoring section to detect the respiration signal by the
airway adapter in case that the CO2 equipped.
Note: Impedance respiration monitoring is active only if the paddles are not connected to the
defibrillator/monitor or if pads are not connected to pads cable. In case pads or paddles are
connected, the respiration rate is displayed as --- and waveform of respiration is not
displayed on the screen.

When the defibrillator/monitor does not detect a respiration signal from the impedance
measurement for 40 seconds, the defibrillator/monitor will activate a loss of respiration
alarm.
Check the condition of the patient, then check the connections of the patient cables.

CAPNOGRAPHY MONITORING
WARNING: For best product performance and measurement accuracy, use only
accessories supplied or recommended by DRE . Use accessories according
to your facilitys standards and the manufacturers recommendation. Always
refer to the manufacturers Directions for Use for instruction about operation,
cleaning, and replacement.
WARNING: The EtCO2 readings do not always correlate closely with blood gas
values, especially in patients with pulmonary disease, pulmonary embolism or
inappropriate ventilation.
WARNING: If uncertain about the accuracy of any measurement, first check the
patients vital signs by alternate means, and then make sure the
defibrillator/monitor is functioning correctly.
WARNING: The defibrillator/monitor should not be used as an apnea monitor.
WARNING: To ensure patient safety, do not place the defibrillator/monitor in
any position that might cause it to fall on the patient.
WARNING: To ensure accurate performance and prevent device failure, do not
expose the defibrillator/monitor to extreme moisture, such as rain.
WARNING: The use of accessories, transducers, sensors and cables other than
those specified may result in increased emission and/or decreased immunity of
the equipment and/or system.
WARNING: CO2 readings and respiratory rate can be affected by sensor
application errors, certain ambient environmental conditions, and certain
patient conditions.
WARNING: The defibrillator/monitor is a prescription device and is to be
operated by qualified healthcare personnel only.
WARNING: Ensure that the components of the airway are secure. If they
become loose, external air may be sucked in the tube and the sampling gas will
be diluted, causing incorrect measurement values.
WARNING: Ensure that selection of a volatile anesthetic is done carefully. If an
improper selection is made, the measurement values may be incorrect.
WARNING: Do not use accessories other than which are specified. Different
sampling tube lengths or inside diameters may have an effect on the
measurement.
WARNING: The mainstream/sidestream capnography module should not be
used in the presence of flammable anesthetics or other flammable gases. Use
of this device in such an environment may present an explosion hazard.
WARNING: Do not use device without rectifying a gas calibration failure, as
correct measurement readings will not be obtained.
WARNING: Do not use device on patients that cannot tolerate the withdrawal of
50 cc/min 10cc /min from airway.
WARNING: CO2 should not be measured in the presence of aerosolized
pharmaceuticals.
WARNING: Do not use a damaged airway adapter.
115
CAUTION: Do not operate the Capnostat sensor when it is wet. Do not immerse the
device in water.
CAUTION: Do not operate the Capnostat sensor if it appears to have been damage
or if it fails to operate properly.
CAUTION: The disposable airway adapter, nasal and nasal/oral sampling cannulas,
and the airway adapter kit are intended for single patient use. Do not reuse or
sterilize these disposable adapters, because system performance will be
compromised.
CAUTION: Do not insert any object other than the sidestream sample cell into the
inlet port of the CO2 module.
CAUTION: Inspect the mainstream CO2 sensor and airway adapter connection to
ensure correct positioning.
CAUTION: Position sidestream airway adapter with the tubing in an upright position.
This help keep patient secretions from pooling into the tubing.
CAUTION: To prevent moisture from during into the mainstream airway or into the
sidestream airway adapter tubing, do not place the adapter in a gravity dependent
position.
General
The defibrillator/monitor capnography option supports mainstream and sidestream gas
analysis designed to measure the concentration of carbon dioxide in a gas mixture and to
aid in determining the patients ventilatory, circulatory, and metabolic status. Mainstream
(nondiverting) and sidestream (diverting) capnography are highly accurate methods of
measuring respiratory gas values. When monitoring capnography, the defibrillator/monitor
automatically compensates for the ambient barometric pressure to ensure accurate
readings.
Theory of Operation
The CO2 sensor measures CO2 by using the infrared technique. The principle is based on
the fact that CO2 molecules absorb infrared (IR) light energy of specific wavelengths, with
the amount of energy absorbed being directly related to the CO2 concentration. When an
IR beam is passed through a gas sample containing CO2, the electronic signal from the
photodetector (which measures the remaining light energy) is measured. This signal is
then compared to the energy of the IR source and adjusted to accurately reflect CO2
concentration in the sample. The CO2 sensors response to a known concentration of CO2
is stored at the factory in the sensors memory. A reference channel accounts for optical
changes in the sensor, allowing the system to remain in calibration without user
intervention.
116
Setup Connections
The defibrillator/monitor has one capnography sensor receptacle which may be used for a
mainstream capnography sensor or a sidestream capnography sensor.
Note: Capnograpy is not analyzed during unit warm-up however, the capnography does display to
indicate that the monitor is working properly.
Note: The typical initial warm-up period can take up to two minutes. This time varies based of the
temperature of the sensor at the start of the initial warm-up.
Note: The airway adapter may require cleaning or replacement if the capnograph is used on
patients that emit excessive mucous.
You must calibrate the CO2 sensor the first time it is connected to the defibrillator/monitor,
when the CO2 sensor is changed. You do not need to calibrate the sensor when you
power on the monitor. Once calibrated, the sensor may be disconnected and
reconnected without calibration.
Note: To maintain optimum performance of the sensor and capnograph, you should perform a
sensor calibration verification at least once a week.
Mainstream Operation
Mainstream monitoring uses an external, self-calibrating CO2 sensor to ensure continuous
monitoring without interruption of connection. Reusable, lightweight, or single-use airway
adapters are available for both adult and neonatal (low dead space) patients. Respiration
can be monitored via an airway adapter and endotracheal or tracheostomy tube using the
mainstream function of the module.
The external capnography device includes a small, lightweight sensor that continuously
measures the end-tidal and minimum carbon dioxide levels in the patients airway. The
sensor head contains a small infrared transducer that accurately measures the CO2 in the
airway. The sensor is connected to the airway by a disposable or reusable airway adapter.
These adapters are available in adult and neonatal size.

117
Sidestream Operation
Sidestream monitoring uses an external, sidestream sensor that plug into the
capnography port on the monitor. Adult, pediatric, or infant sampling lines are then
plugged into the sensor receptacle. Respiration can be monitored for intubated or non-
intubated patients via an airway adapter, nasal cannula, or nasal/oral cannula using the
sidestream function of the module. Sidestream monitoring diverts patient gases at a rate
of 50 ml/min (10ml/min).
The sidestream sampling lime consists of a sample cell on one end that into the
sidestream sensor receptacle on the monitor. The other end of sampling line is connected
to the patient either via a cannula or a sample-T, as shown in Figure 56.

EtCO2
When the capno measurement is On, EtCO2, InCO2 and capno waveform measurement
are activated.
EtCO2 Setting
O2 Gas
As the N2 in the sample gas is replaced by O2, the effect is a decrease in IR absorption.
This results in a lower than actual measured CO2 value (CO2 measured).
It is recommended O2 Gas is set to On to correct for the O2 effect when the O2
concentration is greater than 50%. At O2 levels equal to or less than 50%, the correction
should not be used.
N2O Gas
As the N2O in the sample gas, an assumption is made: if N2O is administered to the
patient, then the remaining balance of the administered mixture is O2. The combined
effect of these gases is two-fold: O2 presence decreases IR absorption, and N2O
presence increases absorption. Though N2O does not directly absorb the filtered IR
energy, it cause the CO2 molecule to absorb and pass along some of it energy to the
N2O molecule of similar molecular weight. By passing off some of this energy, the CO2
molecule is free to absorb even more energy which leads to an increase in absorption.
Since the increased absorption effect due to N2O presence is greater than the decrease
due to O2 presence, an optimal administered mixture of 25% N2O and 75% O2 effectively
cancels the combined effect. The effect of desflurane on the CO2 measurement is similar
to the effect of N2O. It is recommended N2O Gas is set to On when N2O or desflurane
concentrations is above 12%.
Calibration
When the calibration is set to Enter, the EtCO2 calibration will be performed
automatically.
Scale
The user can select the scale of capno waveform. When Auto is selected, the monitor
will automatically set the scale upon the measurement value.

TEMPERATURE MONITORING
WARNING: For best product performance and measurement accuracy, use only
YSI 400 and 700 series temperature probes recommended by DRE . Use
accessories according to the manufacturers directions for use and your facilitys
standards.
General
Measurement of patient temperature is accomplished by processing the signal from a
probe containing a resistance element whose impedance is temperature dependent.
These devices are called thermistors. The measuring time required to obtain accurate
readings at the specific body site is about 10 seconds.
Theory of Operation
Temperature measurement used by the defibrillator/monitor based on a thermistor whose
resistance is inversely proportional to its temperature. By measuring the thermistors
resistance, its temperature can be calculated. The resistance of the thermistor is
measured by passing a current through it and measuring the voltage developed across it.
The defibrillator/monitor is designed to accept the signals from electrically isolated a range
of temperature probes from YSI-400 and YSI-700 series. The probes may be used for
skin or rectal temperature measurement. Probes are furnished with a standard 10-feet
lead; extension leads are available. The signal from the probe is conditioned by the
defibrillator/monitor input circuitry, processed, and used to drive the numeric display.
Setup Connections
The defibrillator/monitor is designed to accept signals from the temperature probes, YSI
400 series and 700 series for skin, rectal or etc.

IBP MONITORING
CAUTION: The sensor disconnect error message and associated alarm indicate the
sensor is either disconnected or the wiring is faulty. Check the sensor connection
and, if necessary, replace the sensor.
CAUTION: Verify the IBP zero (per hospital procedures) and alarm at least once
daily and whenever the patients position changes to ensure that IBP
measurements are accurate.
123
General
The invasive blood pressure measurement measures the systolic pressure, mean
pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse rate for up to 2 blood pressure line channels using
blood pressure transducers, and displays the blood pressure waveform.
Theory of Operation
The blood pressure is influenced by the respiratory system. This occurs in spontaneous
breathing patients, but is more apparent in positive pressure ventilated patients. To
reduce this respiration artifact the module uses a variable weight filter technique in the
processing of the pressure values.
Setup Connections
1. Connect the interface cable for the transducer to the IBP connector (6pin, red round
connector) on the defibrillator/monitors side option case. An interface cable for the
transducer has to be selected correctly as it depends on the each transducer type.
2. Set up the patient circuit according to the directions for use of the transducer,
monitoring kit and IV set.

SELF-TEST FUNCTION
General
This defibrillator/monitor incorporates a Self-test function. The defibrillator/monitor should
be checked at regular intervals so that it will always be ready-to-use for emergency
situations. There are three modes: Manual Self-test, Auto Self-test and Button test.
Additionally, the external shock test should be performed prior to use.
Manual Self-test
If the user wants to perform a Self-test manually, High-voltage module operational test,
Body impedance test, ECG circuit and algorithm test, internal shock test, internal pacing
output test, pads/paddle connection test, system ROM test, system RAM test, battery
test, real time clock test and installed module alive test, it can be performed by Manual
Self-test function in Setup Menu.
Auto Self-test
When the defibrillator/monitor has been turned off, Auto Self-test (or scheduled Self-test)
is operated automatically according to the users setting. The Self-test interval can be
selected as Off, 24, 48, and 72 hours. If the residual of battery power is less than 60%
without using the AC or DC, the Self-test will not be performed.
If the defibrillator/monitor is in use at the time of a scheduled Auto Self-test, the Auto Self-
test will be canceled. If the defibrillator/monitor is turned on when the Auto Self-test is in
process, the Auto Self-test will be canceled and the defibrillator/monitor will be operated
normally.
Note: The setting of the Auto self-test (time and interval) can only be changed by authorized
personnel via the Service Menu.
Button test
The defibrillator/monitor has the button test function. User can check buttons that are
working correctly. It can be performed by Button Test function in Setup Menu.
Button test is to check button is working correctly by pressing the denotative buttons.
Button test can be divided into two types, Front panel and paddles. Shock, Charge,
Analyze, Energy Select, BPM, and mA buttons can be checked on the front panel,
and Shock, Charge, Energy Up, Energy Down, and Recording buttons can be
checked on the paddles.

office, waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the defibrillator/monitor.
159
Returning the defibrillator/monitor and System Components
Pack the defibrillator/monitor with sensors, cable or other accessory items in its original
shipping carton. If the original carton is not available, use a suitable carton with
appropriate packing material to protect the defibrillator/monitor during shipping.
Service
The defibrillator/monitor requires no routine service other than cleaning, battery
maintenance, and service activity which is mandated by the users institution. For more
information, refer to the defibrillator/monitor service manual. Qualified service personnel in
the users institution should perform periodic inspections of the defibrillator/monitor. If
service is necessary, contact qualified service personnel or your local supplier.
Cleaning
The defibrillator/monitor may be surface-cleaned by using a soft cloth dampened with
either a commercial, nonabrasive cleaner or one of the solutions listed below. Lightly
wipe the top, bottom and front surfaces of the defibrillator/monitor.
The cleaning method for paddles and paddle plates are same as defibrillator/monitor.

for use shipped with those components.
160
Battery Maintenance
CAUTION: Recharging the battery is strongly recommended when the battery has
not been recharged for 6 or more months.
CAUTION: Do not short-circuit the battery, as it may generate heat. To avoid short-
circuiting, do not let the battery come in contact with metal objects at any time,
especially when transporting.
CAUTION: Do not solder the battery directly. Heat applied during soldering may
damage the safety vent in the batterys positive cover.
CAUTION: Do not deform the battery by applying pressure. Do not throw, hit, drop,
fold or impact the battery.
CAUTION: Do not connect the battery reversed in positive (+) and negative (-)
terminals. Do not charge the battery with polarities reversed, as it may swell or
explode.
CAUTION: Do not use the battery with other makers batteries, different types or
models of batteries such as dry batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, or Li-ion
batteries together, as they might leak electrolyte heat or explode.
CAUTION: Do not mistreat the battery, or use the battery in applications not
recommended by DRE.
CAUTION: Keep the battery out of reach of babies and children to avoid any
accidents.
CAUTION: If there are any problems with the battery, immediately put the battery in
a safe place and contact qualified service personnel.
If the defibrillator/monitor has not been used for 6 months, the Li-ion battery will need
charging. To charge the battery, connect the defibrillator/monitor to an AC or DC power
source as described in the Battery Operation section.
Note: Storing the defibrillator/monitor for a long period without charging the battery may degrade
the battery capacity. It would take about 8 hours to fully charge the battery from the moment
that low battery alarm is activated.
Note: The battery should be removed from the defibrillator/monitor if placed in storage or if it will
not be used for a long period.

WARNING: For best product performance and measurement accuracy, use only
accessories supplied or recommended by DRE . Use accessories according
to the manufacturers directions for use and your facilitys standards. The use
of accessories, transducers, and cables other than those specified may result
in increased emission and/or decreased immunity of the defibrillator/monitor.

install magnetic shielding. The
IEC 61000-4-8 power frequency magnetic field
should be measured in the
intended installation location to
assure that it is sufficiently low.
Note: UT is the AC mains voltage prior to application of the test level.

test level level guidance
a
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless)
telephones and land mobile radio, AM and FM radio broadcast, and TV broadcast cannot be
predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed
RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field
strength in the location in which the defibrillator/monitor is used exceeds the applicable RF
compliance level above, the defibrillator/monitor should be observed to verify normal
operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary,
such as re-orienting or relocating the defibrillator/monitor.

Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m
