2.0, 2.5, 3.0
2.0 A 2-minute protocol pause for CPR
automatically starts after voice
instruction is given when a shock
series is completed. After the
protocol pause, the defibrillator
returns to rhythm analysis.
If the user presses the i-button for
optional CPR coaching, the OnSite
provides coaching for 5 cycles of
CPR, starting and ending with
compressions, when the CPR
Coaching parameters are also set to
their default values. The number of
CPR cycles varies for other protocol
pause timer and CPR Coaching
parameter settings.
NOTE: Because the protocol pause
ends upon completion of a CPR cycle in
order to maximize the benefits of CPR,
the actual duration of the pause may
differ slightly from the timer setting.
NSA pause type • Standard NSA
pause: OnSite does
not perform
rhythm analysis
during the NSA
pause.
• SMART NSA pause:
OnSite conducts
background moni-
toring during the
SMART NSA pause.
If a potentially
shockable rhythm is
detected, OnSite
terminates the
SMART NSA pause
and resumes
rhythm
analysis.
SMART NSA
pause
During a SMART NSA pause, the
defibrillator conducts background
monitoring. If a potentially shockable
rhythm is detected in a motionless
patient, the defibrillator terminates
the SMART NSA pause and resumes
rhythm analysis.
NOTE: If the OnSite detects CPR in
progress or if the responder has pressed
the i-button for CPR Coaching, the
SMART NSA pause will be converted to
a standard NSA pause. During the
standard NSA pause, the defibrillator
does not perform rhythm analysis.
