RHYTHMx®
ECG analysis
performance
The AED RHYTHMx ECG Analysis system analyzes
the patient’s ECG and advises you when the AED
detects a shockable or non-shockable rhythm.
This system makes it possible for a person, with
no training in the interpretation of ECG rhythms,
to oer debrillation therapy to victims of
sudden cardiac arrest.
Waveform STAR® Biphasic
Impedance 25 Ω to 175 Ω
Energy
(preinstalled pads,
model number
XELAED001)
Escalating energy from 95 J to 354 J
Energy
(pediatric pads,
model number
XELAED003)
Escalating energy from 22 J to 82 J
Shock times • Initiation of rhythm analysis to ready to shock:
15 seconds (typical); 45 seconds (maximum)
With a fully charged battery
• Initiation of rhythm analysis to ready to shock,
used battery: 15 seconds typical); 45 seconds
(maximum) with a battery that has been used
for 15 shocks
• Lid-open to ready to shock: 15 seconds (typical)
With a battery that has been used for 15 shocks
• Post CPR to ready to shock: 10 seconds (typical)
With these conditions: “Post CPR” begins
after the “Stop CPR” prompt is given; English
is the selected language; semi-automatic AED
detects persistent VF; new, unused battery is
attached to the AED.
Automated
self-tests
• Daily: Battery, pads, internal electronics, but-
tons.
• Weekly (every 7 days): Battery, pads, CPR feed-
back device accelerometer, internal electronics,
buttons, high voltage circuit (standard tests,
partial energy charge cycle).
• Monthly (every 28 days): Battery under load,
pads, CPR feedback device accelerometer, in-
ternal electronics, buttons, high voltage circuit
(advanced tests, full energy charge cycle).
