HEARTSTART FRx 861304 OWNER’S MANUAL
If the victim is under 55 pounds or 8 years old, but you do NOT have an
Infant/Child Key:
• DO NOT DELAY TREATMENT.
• Turn on the FRx and follow instructions to remove all clothing
from the torso, to bare both the chest and the back.
• Place the one pad in the center of the chest between the nipples,
and the other in the center of the back (anterior-posterior).
If the victim is over 55 pounds or 8 years old, or if you are not sure of the
exact weight or age:
• DO NOT DELAY TREATMENT.
• Turn on the FRx without inserting the Key and follow
instructions to remove all clothing from the chest.
• Place the pads as illustrated on each pad (anterior-anterior).
Make sure the pads do not overlap or touch each other.
When emergency medical services arrive
When Emergency Medical Services (EMS) personnel arrive to care
for the patient, they may decide to apply another defibrillator to
allow monitoring of the patient. Depending on their equipment, the
EMS team may apply different pads. In that case, the SMART Pads II
should be removed. EMS personnel may want a summary of the
last-use data
*
stored in the FRx. To hear the summary data, hold
down the i-button until the FRx beeps.
NOTE: After the EMS team removes the SMART Pads II from the
patient, remove the Infant/Child Key, if used, and install a new
pads set before returning the FRx to service, to be sure it is ready
for use.
* See Chapter 4, “After Using the HeartStart FRx,” for details about data storage.
