Follow your local protocol with regard to prompt data transfer for medical review
after using the OnSite.* Details about data transfer and timing are provided in
Event Review documentation.
The information automatically stored by the OnSite 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 OnSite by holding the i-button down until it
beeps once. The OnSite 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 OnSite’s status (entire incident)
• the OnSite’s rhythm analysis decisions (entire incident)
• the elapsed time associated with stored events (entire incident)
* The OnSite 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
OnSite retains the files. When the battery is reinstalled, the last-use ECG recording will
be kept in OnSite 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.
