STAR BIPHASIC WAVEFORM
The STAR Biphasic Waveform is designed to measure the patient’s impedance and deliver a customized shock. This
allows the delivery of an optimized energy level to each patient. The energy levels for the Responder AED Pro are
available in three on next page for additional information.
The waveform generated by the Responder AED Pro is a BIPHASIC TRUNCATED EXPONENTIAL waveform that is
compliant with ANSI/AAMI DF2 and DF39. The following is a graph of the waveform voltage as a function of time when
the AED is connected to a 50-Ohm resistive load. (See figure A1 and Tables A1through A3)
