Data Management

The device captures and stores patient data, events (including waveforms and annotations) and continuous patient and waveform impedance records in internal memory. The user can select and print reports, and transfer stored information via compatible communication methods.

Memory capacity:

• Total capacity is 360 minutes of continuous ECG, 90 minutes of continuous data from all channels or 400 single waveform events.
• Maximum memory capacity for a single patient includes up to 200 single waveform reports and 90 minutes of continuous ECGs.

Communications

• The device is capable of transferring data records by wired or wireless connection.
• Serial port RS232 communication + 12V available
• Limited to devices drawing a maximum current of 0.5 A
• Bluetooth® technology provides short-range wireless communication with other Bluetooth®-enabled devices

Monitor

Frequent response:

• Monitor: 0.5 to 40 Hz or 1 to 30 Hz
• Paddles: 2.5 to 30 Hz

• The LIFEPAK 15 monitor / defibrillator has six main operating modes:
  • AED mode: for automated ECG analysis and a suggested treatment protocol for patients in cardiac arrest.
  • Manual mode: to perform manual defibrillation, synchronized cardioversion, noninvasive pacing and ECG and vital signs monitoring.
  • Archive mode: to access stored patient information.
  • Configuration mode: to change the default settings of the operating functions.
  • Service mode: for authorized personnel to perform diagnostic tests and calibrations.
  • Demonstration mode: for simulated waveforms and trend graphs for demonstration purposes.
