| Waveform |
Optimised, impedance-based, biphasic truncated exponential, escalating waveform, called Self Compensating Output Pulse Envelope (SCOPE), which compensates voltage, slope (tilt) and duration for patient impedance
|
| Patient impedance range |
20-230 ohm
|
| Patient analysis systems |
Evaluates patient's ECG, electrode contact integrity and patient impedance to determine if defibrillation is required.
|
| Energy protocol |
- Adult: 150J, 150J, 200J
- Pediatric: 50J, 50J, 50J
|
| Time to shock following CPR (150J) |
SAM 350P: Typically, 8 seconds
|
| Charge time |
Typically, 150J in < 8 seconds, 200 J in < 12 seconds
|
| Guide recommendations |
- HeartSine AED follows the recommendations in the latest AED guidelines for the European Resuscitation Council (ERC), American Heart Association (AHA) and International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR).
- HeartSine AED is consistent with current guidelines for CPR (energy protocols, CPR protocols, quality assurance)
|
| Semi-auto |
HeartSine SAM 350P: Upon delivery, the HeartSine samaritan PAD 350P is configured for semi-automatic operation (shock button press needed to deliver a shock).
|
| Intended use |
The devices are intended for use by personnel who have been trained in their operation. Training on CPR and in the use of an AED is strongly recommended for users. However, in an emergency situation the HeartSine samaritan PAD may be used by an untrained lay rescuer.
|
| Electrode placements |
- HeartSine AED provides visual prompts (pictures) for placement of the electrodes:
-Anterior-lateral (Adult)
-Anterior-posterior or Anterior-lateral (Pediatric).
- The HeartSine AED uses an interchangeable battery and electrode pack called Pad-Pak. The HeartSine AED in combination with an adult Pad-Pak is suitable for use on patients of over 25 kg (55 lb) in weight or equivalent to a child of approximately eight years old or over.
- For use on smaller children (from 1 to 8 years old), a Pediatric-Pak is used. If a Pediatric-Pak or an alternative suitable defibrillator is not available, an adult Pad-Pak may be used.
|
| Batteries |
- HeartSine AED uses non-rechargeable, single-use combined defibrillation electrode and battery cartridge (Pad-Pak or Pediatric- Pak). The battery is lithium manganese dioxide (Li/MnO2) 18V.
- HeartSine Gateway (on the HeartSine Connected AED) uses four CR123A 3V, non-rechargeable batteries.
|
| Warranty |
HeartSine AED is backed by an 8-year limited warranty
