WARNING
In patients with an implanted pacer, it is possible that shockable ECG rhythms
or arrhythmias will only be detected to a limited extent.
Caution
Do not operate the external pacer of the device near high frequency surgical
devices.
This may result in signal interference with the pacer.
Caution
The patient must not remain unattended when using the external pacer
The basic settings when using the device in pacer mode for the first time are:
• Intensity: 0 mA
• Frequency: 70/min
• Operating mode: DEMAND
The moment of stimulation is marked by a green vertical line (spike) in the ECG
curves. A small lozenge symbol is located under each spike. In addition, a large
lozenge symbol is flashing in the upper left corner of the curve field.
The lozenge symbol in the upper left corner indicates the stimulation impulse
of an implanted pacer.
Fig. 5-11 Pacer pulse identification
Connecting and disconnecting ECG electrodes may simulate false-positive
pacer pulses. If this occurs, the device briefly detects pacer pulses, although the
patient does not have an implanted (internal) pacer.
