Subsequent Analysis Cycles

If the option AUTO ANALYZE 1 or 2 is selected, the AED automatically analyzes the patient’s ECG rhythm

after Shock #1 is delivered. If the

AUTO ANALYZE option is off, the AED displays PUSH ANALYZE after

Shock #1. (You will also hear the

PUSH ANALYZE voice prompt and see the ANALYZE LED flash.) You

must press

ANALYZE to begin the analysis.

The second analysis and shock sequence is the same as that described for Shock #1. However, the

energy levels for Shock #2 and Shock #3 depend on the value selected for the

ENERGY SEQUENCE and

the

ENERGY PROTOCOL options. When a NO SHOCK ADVISED decision immediately follows a shock, the

energy level will not increase for the next shock if

FLEXIBLE SEQUENCE is enabled.

Note: If

FIXED SEQUENCE is enabled, the energy level for shocks will increment regardless of the

analysis decision.

No Shock Advised

If the AED detects a nonshockable ECG rhythm, it displays this message:

You will hear the

NO SHOCK ADVISED voice prompt. The AED will not charge, and no shock can be

delivered.

is set to 0, the AED displays one of the following message sequences, depending on the

PULSE PROMPT

selected in Setup:

voice prompt. Within 10 seconds, the AED displays two alternating

messages:
