Preface ABOUT AUTOMATED EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATION The following considerations and guidelines apply when using the LIFEPAK® 20e defibrillator/ monitor as an automated external defibrillator (AED). Operator Considerations The LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor, when in AED mode, is a semiautomatic defibrillator that uses a patented Shock Advisory System™. This software algorithm analyzes the patient’s electrocardiographic (ECG) rhythm and indicates whether or not it detects a shockable rhythm.
Preface Preface ABOUT DEFIBRILLATION THERAPY Operator Considerations A direct current defibrillator applies a brief, intense pulse of electricity to the heart muscle. The LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor delivers this energy through disposable electrodes, standard paddles or internal paddles applied to the patient’s chest. Defibrillation is only one aspect of the medical care required to resuscitate a patient with a shockable ECG rhythm.
Preface ABOUT NONINVASIVE PACING A noninvasive pacemaker is a device that delivers an electrical stimulus to the heart, causing cardiac depolarization and myocardial contraction. The energy is delivered through large adhesive electrodes placed on the chest. In addition to noninvasive pacing, other supportive measures may be necessary. Among other factors, it is recognized that successful pacing of a patient is related to the length of time between the onset of a dysrhythmia and the initiation of pacing.
Preface Preface ABOUT ETCO2 MONITORING The end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) monitor is a capnograph device that uses non-dispersive infrared spectroscopy to continuously measure the amount of CO2 during each breath and report the amount present at the end of exhalation (EtCO2). The sample is obtained by the side stream method and can be used with intubated or nonintubated patients. Respiration rate is also measured and displayed in breaths per minute.

Monitoring Monitoring ECG with Paddles Accessories Anterior-lateral Placement Anterior-lateral placement is the only placement that should be used for ECG monitoring with paddles accessories. 1 Place either the ♥ or + therapy electrode or the apex paddle lateral to the patient’s left nipple in the midaxillary line, with the center of the electrode in the midaxillary line, if possible. Refer to Figure 3-1.
Monitoring 3 Monitoring 3 Apply the therapy electrodes or standard paddles in the anterior-lateral position. For therapy electrodes, confirm that the package is sealed and the Use By date has not passed. For standard paddles, apply conductive gel over the entire electrode surface. 4 Connect the disposable therapy electrodes to the therapy cable. 5 Select PADDLES lead.
Monitoring 5 Apply ECG electrodes: • Confirm package is sealed and Use By date has not passed. • Attach an electrode to each of the lead wires. • Grasp electrode tab and peel electrode from carrier. • Inspect electrode gel and ensure the gel is intact (discard electrode if gel is not intact). • Hold electrode taut with both hands. Apply the electrode flat to the skin. Smooth tape outwardly. Avoid pressing the center of the electrode. • Secure the trunk cable clasp to the patient’s clothing.
Monitoring The LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor annotates internal pacemaker pulses with a hollow arrow on the display and the printed ECG if this feature is configured or selected ON. False annotations of this arrow may occur if ECG artifacts mimic internal pacer pulses. If false annotations occur, you may deactivate the detection feature using the Options/Pacing/Internal Pacer menu (refer to Figure 2-7). Also refer to the "Pacing Setup Menu" in Table 8-9.

Monitoring WARNINGS! (CONTINUED) Inaccurate pulse oximeter readings.
Monitoring 3 Monitoring Sensor (holds LEDs and detector) Light emitting diodes Red Infrared Light receiving detector Figure 3-4 How a Pulse Oximeter Works The quality of the SpO2 reading depends on correct sensor size and placement, adequate blood flow through the sensor site, patient motion, and exposure to ambient light. For example, with very low perfusion at the monitored site, readings may read lower than core arterial oxygen saturation.
Monitoring SpO2 Monitoring Procedure The defibrillator controls power to the pulse oximeter. When the defibrillator is turned on, the oximeter turns on and performs a self-test that requires up to 10 seconds. When the defibrillator is turned off, the oximeter also turns off. To conserve battery power, the pulse oximeter goes into “sleep mode” when not in use. Sleep mode is activated within 10 seconds of disconnecting the sensor. During sleep mode, the screen does not display SpO2 information.
Monitoring The sensitivity setting allows you to adjust the oximeter for differing perfusion states. To adjust the sensitivity to either normal or high, highlight and select SPO2 on the home screen and then select SENSITIVITY. The normal sensitivity setting is the recommended setting for most patients. The high sensitivity setting allows for SpO2 monitoring under low perfusion states such as the severe hypotension of shock.

Infection hazard Do not reuse, sterilize, or clean Microstream® CO2 accessories as they are designed for singlepatient one-time use. How Capnography Works An EtCO2 sensor continuously monitors carbon dioxide (CO2) that is inspired and exhaled by the patient.
Monitoring IV III V I II Figure 3-5 Phases of the Respiratory Waveform Respiratory Baseline. Elevation of the waveform baseline (I–II segment) usually represents rebreathing CO2. This elevation usually is accompanied by gradual increases in the EtCO2 value. Rebreathing CO2 is common in circumstances of artificially produced increased dead space and hypoventilation. Precipitous rises in both baseline and EtCO2 values usually indicate contamination of the sensor. Expiratory Upstroke.
Monitoring 3 Open the CO2 port door and insert the FilterLine connector. Using the tabs, screw the FilterLine connector into the CO2 port clockwise until it can no longer be turned. Do not use excessive force. 4 Verify that the CO2 area is displayed. The EtCO2 monitor performs the autozero routine as part of the initialization self-test.
Monitoring CO2 Display The following scales are available to display the CO2 waveform. The LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor automatically selects the scale based on the measured EtCO2 value. To change the CO2 scale, outline and select the CO2 area using the Speed Dial and then select the desired scale from the scale menu. • Autoscale (default) • 0–20 mmHg (0–4 Vol% or kPa) • 0–50 mmHg (0–7 Vol% or kPa) • 0–100 mmHg (0–14 Vol% or kPa) The CO2 waveform is compressed (displayed at 12.
Monitoring A CO2 waveform appears when any CO2 is detected, but CO2 must be greater than 3.5 mmHg for a numerical value to be displayed. However, the CO2 module will not recognize a breath until the CO2 is at least 8 mmHg (1.0% or 1 kPa). Valid breaths must be detected in order for the apnea alarm to function and to count the respiratory rate (RR).

Therapy NONINVASIVE PACING The LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor provides noninvasive pacing using QUIK-COMBO electrodes. The following paragraphs include: • Noninvasive Pacing Warnings • Demand and Nondemand Pacing • Noninvasive Pacing Procedure • Troubleshooting Tips for Noninvasive Pacing For information about noninvasive pediatric pacing, refer to the Physio-Control Therapy Electrodes Operating Instructions.
Therapy The LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor has an integrated pulse oximeter that can be used in conjunction with a noninvasive pacemaker to help confirm capture. To confirm capture, compare the pulse rate measured by the oximeter to the set pacing rate of the pacemaker. Noninvasive Pacing Procedure ECG monitoring during pacing must be performed with the ECG electrodes and patient ECG cable. Pacing therapy electrodes cannot be used to monitor ECG rhythm and deliver pacing current at the same time.
Therapy If the monitor detects ECG leads off during pacing, pacing continues at a fixed rate until the ECG lead is reattached. During fixed-rate pacing, the pacemaker delivers pulses at the set pace rate regardless of any intrinsic beats that the patient may have. The monitor continues to display the pacing rate (ppm) and the current (mA). To reestablish demand pacing, reattach the ECG lead.
Therapy Table 4-4 Troubleshooting Tips for Noninvasive Pacing (Continued) Observation Possible Cause Corrective Action 5 Monitor screen displays distortion while pacing. ECG electrodes not optimally placed with respect to pacing electrodes. • Reposition electrodes away from pacing electrodes. Patient response to pacing is highly variable with respect to capture threshold and ECG distortion. • Select another lead (I, II, or III). • Consider changing pacing rate.

Clinical Summaries DEFIBRILLATION OF VENTRICULAR FIBRILLATION AND VENTRICULAR TACHYCARDIA Background Physio-Control conducted a multi-centered, prospective, randomized and blinded clinical trial of biphasic truncated exponential (BTE) shocks and conventional monophasic damped sine wave (MDS) shocks. Specifically, the equivalence of 200 J and 130 J BTE shocks to 200 J MDS shocks1 was tested.
Clinical Summaries Ventricular Tachycardia Seventy-two episodes of ventricular tachycardia (VT), induced in 62 patients, were treated with randomized shocks. High rates of conversion were observed with biphasic and monophasic shocks. Sample sizes were too small to statistically determine the relationship between success rates of the waveforms tested.
Clinical Summaries EXTERNAL CARDIOVERSION OF ATRIAL FIBRILLATION Overview The performance of the Physio-Control biphasic truncated exponential (BTE) waveform was compared to the conventional monophasic damped sine (MDS) waveform in an international, multi-center, prospective, randomized clinical study of adult patients undergoing elective cardioversion of atrial fibrillation (AF). A total of 80 patients were enrolled in the study and were treated with one or more study shocks.

Clinical Summaries Guidance for Selection of Shock Energy Biphasic waveform technology is a standard in cardiac defibrillators. The study summarized here1 provides the best information available on which to base energy selections for cardioversion with this waveform. For cardioversion of atrial fibrillation, the results of this study provide specific guidance for three possible strategies in selection of shock energy levels.
Clinical Summaries INTRA-OPERATIVE VENTRICULAR DEFIBRILLATION Overview The defibrillation efficacy of the Physio-Control biphasic truncated exponential (BTE) waveform was compared to the standard monophasic damped sine waveform (MDS) in a prospective, randomized multi-center study of patients undergoing intra-operative, direct defibrillation for ventricular fibrillation (VF).

Clinical Summaries Guidance for Selection of Shock Energy Biphasic waveform technology is a standard in cardiac defibrillators. The results of this study1 provide specific guidance for three possible strategies in developing a dosing regimen. • To optimize for lower initial and cumulative energy using a step-up protocol, select 5 J for the first shock and use small incremental increases in energy if further shocks are needed.

APPENDIX E This appendix describes the basic function of the Shock Advisory System (SAS). LIFEPAK 20e Defibrillator/Monitor Operating Instructions ©2006-2013 Physio-Control, Inc.
Shock Advisory System OVERVIEW OF THE SHOCK ADVISORY SYSTEM The Shock Advisory System™ (SAS) is an ECG analysis system built into the LIFEPAK 20e defibrillator/monitor that advises the operator as to whether it detects a shockable or nonshockable rhythm. This system makes it possible for individuals who are not trained to interpret ECG rhythms to provide potentially lifesaving therapy to victims of ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia.
Shock Advisory System were selected to be a representative sample of rhythms seen during treatment of cardiac arrest.
Shock Advisory System Operator Control of Shock Therapy The Shock Advisory System causes the AED to charge automatically when it detects the presence of a shockable rhythm. When a shock is advised, the operator presses the SHOCK button to deliver the energy to the patient. Analysis is disabled while the device is charging or charged.
APPENDIX F About cprMAX Technology Appendix F LIFEPAK 20e Defibrillator/Monitor Operating Instructions ©2006-2013 Physio-Control, Inc.
About cprMAX Technology ABOUT cprMAX TECHNOLOGY Physio-Control cprMAX™ technology is designed to allow resuscitation protocols to maximize the quantity of CPR administered during treatment with an AED, consistent with the 2005 American Heart Association Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care 1 (AHA Guidelines) and the European Resuscitation Council Guidelines for Resuscitation 2005 2.
About cprMAX Technology AED OPERATION WITH cprMAX TECHNOLOGY The following paragraphs describe AED operation with cprMAX technology setup options. Initial CPR The INITIAL CPR option prompts the user to perform an initial period of CPR. The choices are: OFF, ANALYZE FIRST and CPR FIRST. The factory default is OFF. • The OFF setting has no prompting for an initial CPR period. • The ANALYZE FIRST setting prompts for analysis and then CPR.
About cprMAX Technology Stacked Shocks When set to OFF, the STACKED SHOCKS option inserts prompting for CPR after each (a single) shock. This eliminates the three-shock stack. CPR is prompted after the shock regardless of the ECG rhythm. The CPR time following the shock is determined by the CPR TIME 1 setting selected. Choices for the STACKED SHOCKS option are ON or OFF. The default setting is OFF.
