Arrhythmia Wave Test
This test is typically used to verify the shock advisory
capability of a defibrillator in response to various
arrhythmia waveforms. Table 20 lists test custom
parameters.
Note
This is a visual / audible test; the Analyzer takes
no measurements during this test.
Table 20. Arrhythmia Wave Advisory Test Custom Parameters
Parameter Description
Arrhythmia Selects the category of arrhythmia waveform to use for the test
Arrhythmia Type Selects the type of arrhythmia to simulate
Poly VTach Type Provides a choice of 5 types of Poly VTach waveforms when this type of arrhythmia is selected
Mono VTach Rate BPM value is required when Mono VTach Rate is selected.
ECG Amplitude The voltage amplitude to use for the arrhythmia simulation
Duration How long the simulation should last. Setting can range from 1 to 60 seconds. With checkbox
Indefinite selected, duration is ignored, and the test must be manually stopped by the field user
(Stop in TEST GUIDE toolbar).
Atrial Width, Amplitude,
and Polarity
These atrial parameters are needed for some TV Paced arrhythmia simulations.
Ventricular Width,
Amplitude, and Polarity
These ventricular parameters are needed for some TV Paced arrhythmia simulations.
