D-4
Quick Shock A feature of the FR2+ that provides a patient care pause-to-shock time of less
than 10 seconds, typical, from end of a patient care pause to shock delivery.
read (data) A feature of the HeartStart FR2+ that allows it to read setup data from a
M3854A data card.
receive (data) A feature of the HeartStart FR2+ that allows use of its infrared (IR)
communications port to receive revised setup and clock settings directly from
another device.
rechargeable battery The FR2+ rechargeable battery, used with the M3849A charger only.
record voice An optional feature of the HeartStart FR2+ that allows sound recording to a
data card during use of the device in an incident. Activation of this feature
requires revision of the HeartStart FR2+’s default configuration settings.
rhythm analysis See “
SMART analysis.”
send (data) A feature of the HeartStart FR2+ that allows use of its infrared (IR)
communications port to send data directly to another FR2+ or a computer
running HeartStart Event Review software.
sensitivity A measure of the ability of the HeartStart FR2+ to reliably detect and identify
shockable heart rhythms.
setup The settings of all programmable operating parameters of the HeartStart FR2+.
The factory default setup can be modified using the M3864A Training &
Administration Pack.
shock series One or more shocks, each separated by no more than a preset interval
(programmed Protocol Timeout). After completion of a shock series, the
HeartStart FR2+ automatically pauses for CPR.
shockable rhythm Ventricular fibrillation and certain ventricular tachycardias associated with
sudden cardiac arrest.
shock waveform See “
SMART biphasic waveform.”
SMART analysis The proprietary algorithm used by the FR2+ to analyze the patient’s heart
rhythm and determine whether a shock is advised.
SMART biphasic waveform The patented, low-energy defibrillation shock waveform used by the FR2+. It is
an impedance-compensated biphasic waveform with 150 Joules, nominal,
delivered to a 50 ohm load. When delivered via FR2 infant/child reduced-energy
defibrillator pads, the energy is attenuated to 50 Joules, nominal.
