Follow your local protocol with regard to prompt data transfer for medical review after using the HeartStart.* Details about data transfer and timing are provided in Event Review documentation.

The information automatically stored by the HeartStart includes a summary of last-use data and detailed data about its last clinical use. You can get a voice summary of information about the last use of the defibrillator by holding the i- button down until it beeps once. The HeartStart will tell you how many shocks were delivered and how long it has been since it was turned on. Summary data are available anytime the defibrillator is ready for use (the battery and pads are installed, and the defibrillator is not turned on) or while it is actually in use. Removing the battery erases the summary data for the last use.

Last-use data stored in internal memory include:

ECG recordings (a maximum of 15 minutes following pads application)

the HeartStart’s status (entire incident)

the HeartStart’s rhythm analysis decisions (entire incident)

the elapsed time associated with stored events (entire incident)

*The HeartStart automatically stores information about its last clinical use in its internal memory for at least 30 days, so the data can be downloaded to a computer running appropriate Event Review software. (If the battery is removed during this period, the defibrillator retains the files. When the battery is reinstalled, the last-use ECG recording will be kept in defibrillator memory for an additional 30 days.) After this time, the last- use ECG recordings will automatically be erased to prepare for a future use.

If ECG recordings from a previous use have not been erased, the maximum time for new ECG recordings may be less.
