Open Chest Defibrillation with Internal Handles and Electrodes
ZOLL Autoclavable Internal Handles are designed for use with a manually operated ZOLL defibrillator and internal
defibrillation electrodes to defibrillate the heart during open chest surgical procedures.
When used with a ZOLL defibrillator equipped with an advisory or ECG analysis feature, the ZOLL Autoclavable
Internal Handles allow the defibrillator to operate only as a manual device.
Connection of the ZOLL Internal Handle Sets to the defibrillator automatically causes the defibrillator to limit its energy
output to a maximum of 50 joules.
Refer to the Autoclavable Internal Handle and Electrode Operator’s Guide for step-by-step open chest
defibrillation procedure and important cleaning and sterilization information.
