Fully Release prompt
The R Series unit can be configured to display the text prompt, FULLY RELEASE, which
reminds rescuers to lift (fully release) their hands from the patient’s chest during compressions
to allow full recoil.
This feature is unavailable while using Pediatric CPR electrodes.
By default, the FULLY RELEASE text prompt is not enabled.
CPR Voice Prompts (R Series Plus/Adult only)
The R Series can be configured to issue voice prompts related to the depth of chest
compressions as feedback to rescuers performing CPR. Two voice prompts are available for
this purpose:
• Push Harder
• Good Compressions
When chest compressions are detected but their depth is consistently less than 1.5 or 2 inches
(3.8 or 5 cm), depending on the configuration, the defibrillator will periodically issue the
prompt “Push Harder” every 15 seconds. If the rescuer responds by increasing compression
depth to more than 1.5 or 2 inches (3.8 or 5 cm), depending on the configuration, on a
consistent basis, the unit will issue a “Good Compressions” prompt.
See the R Series Configuration Guide for information on enabling/disabling CPR voice
prompts.
CPR Voice prompts are unavailable while using Pediatric CPR electrodes.
Chest Compressions Bar Graph (Manual Mode Only)
The R Series unit can display a CPR compression bar graph computed from the CPR sensor
signals. This bar graph, representing depth of compression, is presented on a displacement scale
with a reference marker at 1.5 or 2.0 inches, depending on the configuration. When the full
width of the trace is visible, the unit displays a minimum of 12 seconds of compression data.
Displaying the CPR Bar Graph (Manual Mode Only)
To display the CPR bar graph in the Trace 2 or 3 position:
1. Press the Options softkey, then press Traces.
2. Press either the Trace 2 or Trace 3 softkey.
3. Press CPR.
Note: The CPR softkey appears only when OneStep CPR or OneStep Complete electrodes
are in use.
