Changing Pacing Modes
8-8 Pacing (Optional)
Changing Pacing Modes
If paced pulses are being delivered, you must stop pacing before changing the
pacing mode. For example:
1. Press to stop pacing.
2. Press to change the Mode.
3. Adjust the rate, if needed.
4. Press to resume pacing.
5. Adjust the output, as needed to obtain capture.
Defibrillating During Pacing
If the patient must be defibrillated during pacing, follow the procedure for
defibrillating in Manual Mode on page 6-1.
Pacing is automatically turned off when you charge the defibrillator and the
pacing dialogue box is removed from the display. After a shock, pacing
remains off.
To resume pacing, refer to “Performing Pacing” on page 8-5. When you
resume, settings selected prior to defibrillation (rate, mode, and output)
remain the same.
