ECG Display for Ongoing Observation

At the discretion of emergency care personnel, the M3860A FR2+ with ECG display enabled can also be used with the M3873A/M3874A FR2+ ECG assessment module. The FR2+ used with the FR2+ ECG assessment module provides a non-diagnostic ECG display of the patient’s heart rhythm for attended patient monitoring. The system is intended for use on a conscious or breathing patient, regardless of age. While connected to the FR2+ ECG assessment module, the FR2+'s shock capability is disabled, but the FR2+ continues to evaluate the patient's ECG. The module is

designed for connection to ECG electrodes per AAMI (M3873A) or IEC 3 (M3874A) color convention.

There are no known contraindications to use of the FR2+ ECG assessment module.

The module’s colored leadwires are connected to ECG electrodes, which are then placed on the patient’s bare chest, and the module’s device connector is inserted in the FR2+’s connector socket.

N O T E : It is not necessary to turn the FR2+ Defibrillator off prior to connecting the ECG assessment module.

Once connected, the FR2+ displays and evaluates the patient's ECG (Lead II). Follow all prompts from the FR2+. If a data card is used when the module is connected to the FR2+, all recorded events can be viewed using HeartStart Event Review data management software* on a personal computer.

Check the patient if:

￿indicated by the observed ECG display,

￿the patient becomes unresponsive or stops breathing, or

￿the FR2+ prompts IF NEEDED, ATTACH DEFIBRILLATION PADS.

If appropriate, unplug the ECG assessment module from the FR2+, attach the defibrillator pads to the patient, and connect the defibrillator pads to the FR2+. Verify that the defibrillator pads are at least one (1) inch (2.5 cm) away from the ECG electrodes.

The M3873A/M3874A FR2+ ECG assessment module contains no latex rubber. It is reusable (see the expiration date on the module) and can be cleaned with a soft cloth dampened with any of the agents recommended for

*HeartStart Event Review software was previously sold as CodeRunner software.
