17. Defib Energy CHARGE Key

Using Defibrillator and Pacer Paddles and Electrodes

External Paddles

The STERNUM defibrillating paddle contains a discharge button and serves as the negative ECG

electrode (placed on the upper right sternum) when the defib ECG source key is set to PADDLE.

The APEX defibrillating paddle contains both a discharge button and a charge button with ready

light that functions the same as the CHARGE key on the defibrillator front panel. This paddle

also serves as the positive ECG electrode (placed on top of the cardiac apex) when the defib

source is set to PADDLE.

Pediatric Paddles

WARNING: Pediatric paddles have no internal protection. Therefore,

improper defibrillator energy settings can cause permanent

myocardial damage to pediatric patients. Follow ACLS (Advanced

Cardiac Life Support) guidelines when setting energy for pediatric

patients.

Pediatric paddles are designed to slide directly over the standard adult paddles.

Disposable Adhesive Electrodes

Disposable adhesive electrodes can be used for defibrillation, pacing, and ECG acquisition when

PADDLE is selected as the ECG source on the defib front panel. If you are monitoring in this

way and obtain an inadequate QRS amplitude, reposition the electrodes, or monitor using a

standard 3-lead ECG cable with proper electrodes. Select the appropriate electrodes for your

application from the following table:

Disposable Electrode Diameter MDE Part Number Application

13 cm (back) and 10 cm (apex) E2700-64 Adult

10 cm (back) and 7 cm (apex) E2700-65 Pediatric
