Delivering Additional Synchronized Shocks
If additional synchronized shocks are indicated, perform the following steps:
1 Make sure the Sync function is still enabled, as indicated by the presence of the Sync message in
the upper right corner of the Wave Sector 1.
2 Repeat Steps 4-6 under “Delivering a Synchronized Shock”.
The Sync function of the HeartStart MRx can be configured to either be enabled or disabled after each
shock is delivered. If configured to remain enabled and the Therapy Knob is moved to either Monitor
or Pacer, the Sync function is still enabled. However, should the Therapy Knob be moved to either the
Off or AED positions, the Sync function is disabled.
Disabling the Sync Function
To turn off the Sync function of the HeartStart MRx, press the Sync button.
Using Q-CPR in Manual Mode
If your HeartStart MRx has the Q-CPR option, refer to “Using Q-CPR in Manual Defib Mode” on
page 170.
