Monitoring with Defibrillation Electrodes

With defibrillation electrodes in use, you can change from semiautomatic mode to ECG
monitoring mode.

If the unit detects a shockable rhythm while in ECG monitoring mode and defibrillation
electrodes are in use, the unit prompts you to check the patient and then changes to
semiautomatic mode.

For more information, refer to Chapter 3, “Semiautomatic Mode”.

Before you begin

Attach defibrillation electrode pads to the patient (refer to Chapter 3.)
